Six Russian diplomats have died in the last 60 days. As Axios notes, all but one died on foreign soil. Some were shot, while other causes of death are unknown. Note that a few deaths have been labeled “heart attacks” or “brief illnesses.”
1. You probably remember Russia’s Ambassador to Turkey, Andrei Karlov — he was assassinated by a police officer at a photo exhibit in Ankara on December 19.
2. On the same day, another diplomat, Peter Polshikov, was shot dead in his Moscow apartment. The gun was found under the bathroom sink but the circumstances of the death were under investigation. Polshikov served as a senior figure in the Latin American department of the Foreign Ministry.
3. Russia’s Ambassador to the United Nations, Vitaly Churkin, died in New York this past week. Churkin was rushed to the hospital from his office at Russia’s UN mission. Initial reports said he suffered a heart attack, and the medical examiner is investigating the death, according to CBS.
4. Russia’s Ambassador to India, Alexander Kadakin, died after a “brief illness January 27, which The Hindu said he had been suffering from for a few weeks.
5. Russian Consul in Athens, Greece, Andrei Malanin, was found dead in his apartment January 9. A Greek police official said there was “no evidence of a break-in.” But Malanin lived on a heavily guarded street. The cause of death needed further investigation, per an AFP report. Malanin served during a time of easing relations between Greece and Russia when Greece was increasingly critiqued by the EU and NATO.
Hmmmm. Sounds just like the Clintons. Only the Clinton’s body count is ten times higher and Putin doesn’t have any kids that look like one of his business partners.
We need a special investigator to see how deep Trump is involved in this. He’s either colluding with the Russians, or killing them. Or both. Don’t think too hard, just start looking for clues, because Democracy Dies In Darkness.
if trump is the russians flunky, how come trumps enemies are still breathing?
That’s what they call “term limits”.
I bet they’re nervous in the Foreign Service.
Maybe DJT could hand Putin a list…….Just say’in.
A bullet hole can cause a “brief illness”, or “very brief illness”.
Most people don’t just die “unexpectedly”.
For example, Seth Rich, Andrew Beitbart, and Antonin Scalia.
@ Bill
Profound.
Ohhh! Ohhh! Vlad, I have a list, pick me!
What good D could doubt that this is Trump doing Putin’s bidding? Go ahead, ask Waters, Pelosi, and Perez.
Perhaps Soros is slowly trying to thin out Putin’s influence?
