Putin implicated in fatal poisoning of former KGB spy at posh London hotel

LONDON — Russian President Vladimir Putin was likely personally responsible for approving the fatal poisoning at a posh London hotel of a former KGB operative-turned-U.K. intelligence agent, according to the findings of a highly anticipated British inquiry released Thursday.
The conclusion, which comes nearly a decade after Alexander Litvinenko succumbed to the effects of the radioactive polonium slipped into his cup of green tea at London’s Millennium Hotel, is sure to raise tensions between London and Moscow.
Litvinenko's widow called Thursday for Britain to expel Russian intelligence officials and enact new sanctions in retaliation for the killing.
But the finding comes at a highly sensitive time, as the West seeks Russian cooperation in ending the Syrian war, and the British government may not want to add fresh hostility to an already troubled relationship.
The inquiry found that two men deliberately poisoned Litvinenko, and were almost certainly working on behalf of the Russian intelligence agency FSB. The two named assassins, Andrei Lugovoi and Dimitry Kovtun, remain in Russia, and the Russian government has rebuffed British attempts to secure their extradition. Lugovoi, a former KGB officer, is now a member of the Russian parliament. On Thursday he called the allegations against him "absurd."
Kovtun, now a businessman, did not respond to requests for comment. He told Russian journalists Thursday that he wanted to learn more about the report before responding to it.
The inquiry's findings, set out over 328 pages, include that Putin had a personal motive for wanting Litvinenko dead, and that the president would likely have had to approve a high-stakes operation to assassinate the former KGB operative on British soil. The assassination has been described by a British Parliamentary committee as "a miniature nuclear attack on the streets of London."

So?
He killed a traitor to his country.
Don`t you guys do the same?
You would move to execute Snowden the moment you got your hands on him.

Where is the difference to US and A for example?
The US government is no better.

Putin is a closet fag....also its said that he killed that agent because he agent was talking about Putin and pedophilia

I think you're confusing Putin for Obama. You know, the guy that draped the White House in rainbow lights as a nod to his people.

The positions are reversing..
Russia, under Putin is becoming more like the "Free West", more Nationalist - pro Christian..
America under Obama/Hillary and Europe is and will become more socialist/communist/fascist/Marxist - anti Christian like the Old Soviet Union.

Putin is the man. Respected throughout the world.

Your world views are interesting, if inaccurate. Perhaps you'd benefit from some world travel so that you could see how things really are for yourself.

I've travelled extensively.. throughout the US , South America, visited Moscow, Cairo, Dubai, China, Thailand 3x , through Africa, Europe, lived in the UK and currently live in South Africa.
I think I have a rational perspective of what is going on globally right now...
Why do you think the left are so aggressive towards Russia recently...
Why is there such a noticeable anti-Christian/anti Nationalist/ anti white man agenda coming from the leftists/globalists in America & Europe?
I think it is you that has his head in the sand...

Investigating Donald Trump, F.B.I. Sees No Clear Link to Russia

LOL,
even Litvinenko's father says his son deserved what he got due to him letting down the country and turning a traitor.
I still doubt Putin himself approved the mission.
Hell, look at his job! He doesn't work on details. No chance anyone would have brain capacity for that.
CEO's of major companies don't know who gets sacked on floor level in one of the offices. I assume running Russia is a more complex and demanding job than running a major corporation.
Not that we will ever know.

Here is the father Litvinenko:
Alexander Litvinenko's father calls his son a traitor
"If only I had known that my son had worked for British intelligence I would not have talked about his death. He could easily have been shot as a double agent. Traitors should be shot."

H.Clinton would have been shot on the White House lawn for treason a couple hundred years ago

Putin is well spoken, interesting and fun.
I like his persona but he is a BIG snake. It's all a political "good cop"/"bad cop" theater now. His "advisers" are the people who wage the real power. America's reputation is being destroyed and is going down... not good for us Europooreans.
p.s.: anybody who makes it through the ranks like he did is a man without morals.

^ One of the most important qualities of the leader is to be able to select his team wisely.
Shoigu as defense minister Putin could now probably rely on weekly briefings on that sector if he wanted.
He is the reason Russia has quite nice emergency staff+systems+equipment. Acted as Emercom head prior to his current post.
And now he's doing the same to military. Although it's a much bigger task.
Putin should find someone of same caliber for economy too.

Boris the drunk before him fucked the country, gave away all the oil fields to a handful of fucks who became billionaires overnight. Putin has spent years getting all of the oil rights back,

I'm too close to Putin territory right now to speak badly of him. Lot's of U.S. military bases here in Germany are abandoned and have been turned back over for non-military German development.Toured one yesterday that is being rebuilt for housing and university. Rows upon rows of old barracks sitting vacant and deteriorating.

You know what? One of the few adults I've ever heard not sugarcoating it for hospitalized kids: "no, you will have to deal with pain, but the worst is over".
That's what forces growth.
This kids now knows that there WILL be pain and he will start getting ready for it immediately.

The character assassination that both he and trump have to put up with is appalling. What the western media feed their blind dumb sheep on a daily basis to keep them in their blind ignorant state is unbelievable, I never thought democracy and true freedom could ever be so undermined.
Putin is a current world leader with no equal.
Dont get me wrong Trump doesn't help himself, but hes an egotistic fool, at times not a traitor or anything else that they call him, he is a far greater patriot than his predecessor, who offered so much but did nothing more than deliver the same or worse with his economic ignorant Marxist agenda.

No. Can you name one person in recent memory that has been killed by the U.S. government for spying or committing treason?
You think that if people in Russia said the same things about Putin that people here they say of Trump would be treated the same?

Who cares?
Russia is the last bastion of freedom in the modern world,no matter what you leftist parrots repeat over and over. I'm glad they are defending their freedom against spies and fifth column domestic traitors.
Liberal fascism rules everywhere else,and it's despicable.
Oh,and Julius and Ethel Rosenberg. And why is Assange not able to leave the embassy?

Last bastion of freedom? In Russia. Why don't you move there? Experience that bastion of freedom first hand.
You have no idea. Not a scintilla of a clue.

"Putin walking to his inauguration. A friend on twitter suggested it would be excellent if Stayin' Alive was playing over this walk.. so here we are. "

Mr Putin is an astute and skilled operator but so far does not seem to have prepared any sucession proposals
In many respects the measure of his skills will be whither Russia achieves a stable transfer of power and governance after he leaves the stage

Isn't it interesting how many folks post such complete nonsense like Rusty did. Maybe he was being sarcastic. But, I doubt it.

Pretty well done cinematography. I wonder if Leni Riefenstahl was involved?

Do you think he will leave voluntarily?
