So this is something that has always intrigued me about this avenue of "geopolitics".

The guy has already released all the evidence, other than basically confirming its true and they didn't want it out, what does killing him actually achieve?
One reason why Kremlin doesn't hide all the murders , is to send a message for anyone in the future, mafia style.
You need to think of Putin not as a president , but as the leader of a Mafia organization , with all the rules coming with it.

The same reason he used Polonium and Novichok again dissidents, it's to send a very specific message and show people who is responsible.

I fully get that aspect, but as a "message" it doesn't seem to really be all that effective since naughty stuff always slips out...

And yeah, Vlad is not a president at all he is the Don basically.

RFU demanding UEFA and FIFA take action against UAF's manager.

In a letter to the governing bodies of world and European football, the Russian Football Union (RFU) argued that Petrakov has acted in a manner contrary to the standards and ethics of international football, according to The Guardian.

The RFU is also said to have accused Petrakov of discrimination towards Russians after previously expressing his desire to fight against Russian forces in Ukraine.

Petrakov has previously stated that he believes Russians should be indefinitely suspended from competing in international sport – claims which Denis Rogachev, the deputy secretary general of the RFU, says stand in opposition to the accepted codes of conduct in sport.

This Ukraine crisis is not a good time for old people. Great time for the fossil fuel companies though:


Similar scenario in the USA.

At least the fossil fuel industries are making huge profits and benefit from this crisis.
