It was all a hoax. Does that matter? Well, Maxim Maximovich Isaev, aka Stierlitz, didn't exist either, but lots of people think he did. Or should have, anyway. Regarded by some as "The Soviet James Bond," he was a popular character from the grey Brezhnev era. Here's the start of one adventure, and in the brooding style of the day, it opens with a full minute's worth of impassive geese observation. Then he lowers his head to indicate the fatalistic essence of the world only a Russian soul can apprehend.
The story of Stierlitz can be heard here on the BBC. After which these you may want to watch the entire "17 Moments" series.
