Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.

Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin:

[ColonelCassad] At the meeting, Putin handed Steve Wittkoff the Order of Lenin for high-ranking CIA employee Yuliana Gallina. Her 21-year-old son Michael Gloss died in 2024, participating in the SVO on the side of the Russian Federation as part of the 98th Airborne Division (which stormed Chasov Yar).

Posthumously awarded the Order of Courage. Gallina holds the position of the CIA's deputy director for digital innovation.

It turns out that we still have the Order of Lenin. Oh, this mysterious world of special services.
