The KGB was dissolved, along with the rest of the Soviet Union, over 30 years ago.

You would think so. Whatever the name, whatever the legal structure, I am pretty sure KGB persists. Or several factions of it.

Renamed/refactored into 3 new agencies (the FSB, GRU and SVR) would be a much better description.

Unfortunately the KGB did not simply dissolve, like nearly all the Warsaw Pact agencies -- and this fact is quite central to the situation we are facing today.
