Manhattan Adult Entertainment: ‘Life will be a nightmare for the spies returning to Russia’
… For the Russian spies returning to Moscow, their life is going to be a nightmare. Some of them have spent 15 years living in America, and they are going to find it very, very hard to adjust. They will go from living affluent lives with real freedom, to living under constant surveillance by the Russian secret services. Every move they make will be watched very closely.
“When they were arrested by the Americans, they would have had a moment of relief at finally coming out in the open. And then it would have dawned on them that they would have to return to Russia, and leave behind their comfortable Western lives. I think it’ll be hardest for the children. Your kids will forgive you for being a drunk, or a fool, but never for lying to them. All their lives they have been lied to and as Americanised teenagers and young people, they will find Russia hell. I was last there in March 2010 but I don’t like going back. Moscow is like an old prostitute with caked on make-up.
