True, but I don’t think Russia is that crazy. It’s more of a “we were able to track your entire space flight and hear everything you said”.
However, from what I remembered about the story, it was likely more innocuous than that. Some Russian reporter from a major news outlet (forgot which one) was writing a story and asked the space agency for some materials, and they went sure, here you go. Like, it wasn’t intended to be released as some kind of political statements.
