No American should ever visit Russia unless possessing
diplomatic immunity
To avoid being arrested on trumped up charges ordered by
Putin with impunity
For if falsely arrested and tried in a show trial off to prison you will go for
many years
A grime reality that any tourist, businessperson or
relatives should really fear
Putin has elevated his kidnapping of innocents to a fine
lucrative art
Unless we hold Russian prisoners to pay the ransom you will not
soon depart
Today 4 Americans and 12 German “prisoners” in an exchange
were released
For 8 convicted Russian criminals which means in the future in
Russia false arrests and show trials of
Americans and NATO allies will increase
The 4 Americans--
WSJ reporter Gershkovich, former Marine Whelan, Russian-American journalist
Kurmasheva and permanent resident Kara-Murza boarded a U.S. bound plane
While 8 Russian
criminals including one of the FSB’s most feared assassins, Vadim Krasikov,
convicted of killing in broad daylight a Chechen commander in Berlin in 2019,
were no longer detained
So Putin did
not get the sharp end of the stick as Kraskiov’s release will enable the FSB to
recruit agents for illegal operation in foreign lands
With a message
that if you are caught Russia will arrest some Americans or Germans here, convict
them and send them to prison to rot so the pressure on the West to secure their
release the leaders cannot withstand
The Biden
Administration deserves some praise if this was really our last resort
But stern
warnings on the dangers of Putin kidnappings to Americans in Russia we must
24/7 report
