RIP Vitaly Churkin

#1 Post by jarnon » Mon Feb 20, 2017 2:51 pm

The Russian ambassador to the United Nations passed away on Monday, the day before his 65th birthday.

This is not the Russian ambassador that General Flynn talked to. AFAIK, Ambassador Churkin has no enemies who would want to assassinate him.

That would be quite the scandal if they came to find out he died of natural causes. No one to blame. The media will go nuts with the lack of a story.

I don't think even Putin has the stones to have him killed on US soil.

The New York Medical Examiner wants to run tests before opining on the cause and manner of death. --Bob

Kudos to him/her. I wish the medical examiner responsible for certifying Scalia's death had been as responsible. But there was that tee time he had to get to.
