Jacopo Iacoboni is a journalist whose name appeared on the membership list of the Italian cluster of the Integrity Initiative that was exposed by the first of the Integrity Initiative Leaks.[1].
Career
Iacoboni worked for the NATO-strategy think-tank The Atlantic Council, where he co-authored v. 2.0 of The Kremlin's Trojan Horses[2] with Alina Polyakova, Markos Kounalakis, Antonis Klapsis, Luigi Sergio, Francisco de Borja Lasheras and Nicolás de Pedro.
Russian spies among doctors
In April 2020, Jacopo Iacoboni published a story claiming, in relation to Russia's medical mission to Italy in the coronavirus crisis, that the "104-strong contingent of doctors and experts almost certainly included officers from Russia's GRU military intelligence agency." The expert quoted for this claim was Hamish de Bretton-Gordon, the British soldier spreading the UK government line on the in the Skripal-affair and the alleged Douma chemical incident.[3]
"We can assume that (the Russian team) will want to find out as much about Italian forces as possible and set up intelligence networks," de Bretton-Gordon told La Stampa.[4]
Wikispooks Interview and threat
Although many members denied the company to have even existed Jacopo Iacoboni refused to acknowledge his work for the Ifs and reacted to Wikispooks the company was a "hoax" and "Russian propaganda" [5], among with the claims "writing a paper for a company doesn't mean you work or are a client of said company". After The Times reported the censure and cutting of funding to the Ifs, on 20 March, 2023, the institute was declared an undesirable organisation in Russia seemingly hinting the Ifs to still exist. Iacoboni threatened Wikispooks subsequently with a lawsuit for "defamation" for this page in the Wikispooks wiki to exist (arguing he was not a propagandist and/or working for the Ifs, as the Ifs did not exist), refusing to clarify how the Ifs was a hoax or propaganda.[6]
