Russian spy Anna Chapman named head of Moscow’s new SVR-linked espionage museum.
Anna Chapman, the Russian spy arrested in 2010 as part of a sleeper cell operation, has been appointed head of the Museum of Russian Intelligence in Moscow, a new institution linked to Russia’s foreign intelligence service, the SVR.
The museum, located near Gorky Park, aims to showcase the history of Russian espionage, particularly against Western nations.
Chapman, who gained global attention after her arrest and subsequent exchange in a high-profile spy swap, has since reemerged in public life, becoming a TV host, model, and author.
In her 2024 memoir, *Bondianna: To Russia With Love*, she recounts her recruitment by the SVR, her operations in London and New York, and her portrayal of herself as a modern spy.
Her new role signals a continued public-facing involvement with Russia’s intelligence community.
