俄罗斯对外情报局（SVR）周四表示，乌克兰安全局（SBU）新领导层的腐败行为正在阻碍莫斯科与基辅达成和平协议。
Corruption of the new leadership of Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) is preventing Moscow and Kyiv from achieving a peace settlement, Russia's Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) said on Thursday.
SVR在一份声明中称，SBU策划了侵占欧洲纳税人资金的腐败方案。
The SVR said in a statement that the SBU was behind corruption schemes to siphon off European taxpayers’ money.
该局称：“乌克兰安全局新领导层又策划了一套方案，通过从欧盟国家为该机构供应手枪，盗走欧洲纳税人的钱。”
"The new SBU leadership has organized another scheme to steal European taxpayers’ money through the supply of pistols from EU countries for the agency’s needs," it said in a statement.
据SVR掌握的信息，该方案涉及通过东欧中间商采购武器，将每支手枪的价格从250欧元提高到750欧元。
According to information received by the SVR, the scheme involves purchasing weapons through intermediaries in Eastern Europe, tripling the price of each pistol from €250 to €750.
这家情报机构认定，波兰公司Wytwornia Broni Jacek Popinski是主要中间商，并指控该公司采购手枪，其中包括从奥地利武器制造商格洛克的巴拿马分支机构采购手枪，然后转售给乌克兰。
The intelligence agency identified a Polish company, Wytwornia Broni Jacek Popinski, as a key intermediary, alleging that it buys pistols, including from the Panamanian branch of Austrian arms manufacturer Glock, and resells them to Ukraine.
SVR称：“每批5000支手枪都会向乌克兰安全局领导层信任的个人账户转入62.5万欧元。”该局还称，这些采购由比利时和德国国防部提供资金。
"For each batch of 5,000 pistols, €625,000 is transferred to the accounts of individuals trusted by the SBU leadership," the SVR said, adding that the purchases are funded by the defense ministries of Belgium and Germany.
SVR指出，在采购更昂贵的武器，尤其是防空系统所需的稀缺弹药时，可能也存在类似腐败行为。
The SVR noted that similar corruption could be taking place in the procurement of more expensive weapons, particularly scarce ammunition for air defense systems.
该局将上述说法与乌克兰总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基最近关于乌克兰军事预算出现270亿美元非计划缺口的声明联系起来，称欧洲纳税人最终将承担这笔费用。
It linked its claims to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s recent statement that an unplanned $27 billion gap had emerged in Ukraine’s military budget, saying that European taxpayers would ultimately bear the cost.
该机构说：“这些信息解释了为什么乌克兰的‘总督’（泽连斯基）及其随从如此顽固地拒绝推动和平解决冲突。
"This information answers the question of why the gauleiter of Ukraine (Zelenskyy) and his entourage so stubbornly refuse to move toward a peaceful resolution of the conflict.
他们被不劳而获的金钱冲昏了头脑根本无法停下脚步，继续从一场给乌克兰人带来灾难的战争中中饱私囊。”
Driven mad by easy money, they simply cannot stop and continue lining their pockets from a war that is disastrous for Ukrainians," the agency said.
