A similar method was used by Russia during the COVID-19 crisis.



This is what British intelligence analysts say .

According to the British experts, the involvement of regional officials in the national security system of Russia is done so that the Russian public criticizes the central leadership less. And he gives one example.

On October 24, 2022, Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin announced that Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin would coordinate the "development of security measures" in the regions of Russia. This measure is likely to lead to closer integration of regional governors into Russia's national security system. This is another measure aimed at organizing a society that continues to be under the pressure of the war unleashed by Russia against Ukraine.

British intelligence officials say the same method was used during the COVID-19 crisis. The only difference is that Russian society will now be more difficult enclose for the Kremlin from the consequences of the war in Ukraine.
