Russian agent in Italy. “Maria Adela” was investigating NATO
“Maria Adela” was somehow connected with Sergei Skripal in the structures of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Russian Federation. These are fake passport numbers. European investigative journalists discovered the Russian agent thanks to the same data that made it possible to identify the perpetrators of the poisoning of Sergei Skripal and his daughter.
The real name of “Maria Adela Kuhfeldt” is Olga Kołobowa. The woman left Italy the day after Bellingcat and The Insider revealed Skripal’s killers and published their stories. The woman never returned to the Apennine Peninsula.
She shared the ten years of living and working in Italy between Rome and Naples. Officially, she was a jewelry designer and ran an exclusive boutique. The report’s authors found that “Maria Adela” was selling imitation Chinese earrings, rings and bracelets, presenting them as “handmade”. The circle of her acquaintances expands, the events in which she participates and charity galas reach higher and higher circles of society. Until it got to NATO officials.
A Russian agent spent ten years in Italy investigating NATO
“Maria Adela” was also active in the Naples charity. These events were frequently visited by Alliance representatives. Friendships and romances appeared.
I remember that she had relations not only with American officers and officials, but also with Belgians, Germany and Italy
– says former Colonel Shelia Bryant, then Inspector General of US Naval Forces in Europe and Africa, in an interview with “La Repubblica”.
The investigation did not confirm whether the Russian agent physically managed to enter the NATO base or the US command headquarters. Journalists point out that there are “strong indications” of his presence at certain ceremonies: the annual NATO balls, the Dances of the Marine Corps, several charity evenings.
She justified her abrupt departure from Italy after a few months of chemotherapy. It was also part of a hoax. To make it more believable, she added a photo in a blonde wig on social media. This is the last trace of his presence. She made an exception for the former “Cosmopolitan” director. Marcelle D’Argy Smith in December 2021 received a message on Whatsapp:
There’s so much I can’t (and never will) explain, but I know I miss you so much
– wrote “Maria Adela”.
