I don't think he can go anywhere safely Ivan, he is always having to watch his back, even in his own country. There is always someone trying to oust him, and Novachoc works both ways. None of these dictators can rest easy, and rarely have a comfortable retirement.

Was it Boris Yeltsin when he needed heart surgery flew to the USA because he did not trust his own crowd.Boris Yeltsin.jpg. I wonder if this is him boarding his plane to the states for treatment.

Re: I don't believe it
Putin visited maripol, a city that was destroyed by his army, killing hundreds of innocent civilians. Yet in the pictures on the news showing him in maripol on russian media, the background certainly doesn't show any destruction.
Maybe he wasn't even in maripol, just a Russian pr stunt to show what a brave chap he is.
