The story going around, upon which I do not think you should bite:

Medias reports speculation on French TV (by former DGSE guest Vincent Crouzet) as confirmed, stating that Ukraine and/or France supplied fake information to US intelligence services to see whether it would be leaked to Moscow, and are also saying that it was in fact shared with the Russians.

This is not confirmed, and Ukraine ACTIVELY DENIES this happened. Here’s a story on UNN being very clear about that. I repeat, Ukraine EXPLICITLY have denied this, calling it Russian disinformation.

This does not mean it’s definitely not true, because there are a lot of reasons Ukraine would/could want to deny this even were it true. But it’s my position from a fair amount of time in this kind of information environment that this SHOULD NOT be run with without MUCH stronger evidence.
