This document appears to be a page from a narrative report or book regarding Russian intelligence operations, specifically the SVR's 'Illegals Program.' It details how a source named Poteyev informed the CIA about sleeper agents, including Anna Chapman, and discusses the high costs of FBI surveillance required to monitor these individuals ($10,000/day). The text concludes with a 2010 warning from Poteyev that Russian military intelligence was seeking to activate these agents for a sensitive assignment.
