Doing exactly what they accuse Russians of doing. Build a fence around that crap hole. Let no one out.

Sounds like this fellow has been a political outsider in his country, since at least 2014. Maybe he remained influential behind the scenes. Unclear if Z is planning to attend the Wake or the funeral.

Spanish media reports that 2-3 suspects are being hunted.

A Zelvis hit squad.

What’s more,

In 2015, CNN reported on two high-profile shooting deaths in the Ukrainian capital - one of a former member of parliament with ties to Yanukovych, the other of a Ukrainian journalist known for his pro-Russian views.

At the time, those killings renewed speculation about a conspiracy to kill people close to Yanukovych, after three former members of parliament from his political party died by suspected suicide, found dead in their homes.

So this is nothing new in the world of Ukraine-Russia politics.

That’s what dictators do to anyone who might challenge their hold on power.

Doubtful it was a hit by any Ukrainian.

Most likely, a Putin hit-job, making sure he isn't captured or brought in for investigation of the Yanukovych/Putin regime installed in Ukraine against the will of the Ukrainian people.

Ukraine is a hotbed of terrorism. Guaranteed our CIA, or British MI-6 located him for the Uke assassination squad. Wonder if he is on that Ukrainian hit list website?

[EnderWiggin1970]

Your prejudices are leading to an absurd conclusion. This guy was a confidant of the leader of the PRO-RUSSIAN elected government of Ukraine. Putin didn’t order a hit on someone who could have played a Russophile role in post-war Ukrainian government. This was a hit either by Ukraine or more likely European globalists who want to eliminate potential leaders either elected or installed by Russia after the defeat of Ukraine.

I suspect that a more likely and logical group of assassins were monkeys that came out of your nether regions.   Look up Occam's razor, adorno.   You know good and well that it was a Ukrainian hit team like the others in the past.

[If You Want It Fixed - Fix It]

Always safer shooting at Russians up close.

[BobL]

Sounds like the EU is “clearing the field” for an upcoming Ukrainian election.

...so, business as usual.

The personal attacks won't win you the argument.

Irrelevant. Look up common sense.

I was going to call you an idiot, but I won't, since I don't resort to personal attacks. So, while you may in actuality be an idiot, I won't call you that. ;) You know good and well that it was a Ukrainian hit team like the others in the past.

The country and people with hit-men is Russia. Putin puts out a hitjob at least 10 times a year.

Ukraine and Zelensky are not as experienced as the KGB, and Putin is/was one of the biggest KGB agents around.

Putin put out the hitjob ahead of any investigations which might occur before and after peace negotiations occur.

Putin is trying to hide behind an assassination which he knew darn well would be blamed on Ukraine/Zelensky.

Why did the Ukrainians wait so long to take out a traitor to Ukraine? Eleven years after the dictator put in place by Putin was booted? The Ukrainians knew where he eas all the time, and so did Putin.

Putin is playing chess, while the anti=Ukraine forces play tic-tac-toe.

Nope!

Wrong on all your statements.

Putin doesn't want that pro-Putin traitor talking, so he had to be taken out. That pro-Russian official you're talking about, was a Putin plant, and the dead traitor needed to be taken out ahead of negotiations/peace talks. Dead men don't talk.

It made no sense for Zelensky or Ukraine to put a hit job on the traitor, since he was no longer relevant and had been gone for 11 years.

It’s impressive, the mental convolutions people will put themselves through to hang onto their prejudices. I guess if a Trump ally drops dead, by your logic it will be Trump that ordered the hit because (made up reason).

They couldn’t find a high rise for him to fall out of a window.

What you should be impressed about, is about how I understand the terrorist/dictator mentality, such as Putin's

Prejudice? I have prejudice against dictators, especially when their tactics have been known for decades.

I guess if a Trump ally drops dead, by your logic it will be Trump that ordered the hit because (made up reason).

No dumb@ss. You can't equate what Putin has been known to do, with anything Trump has done in the past. Totally different people, totally different circumstances, and totally different reasons; Trump has no reason at all to put out hit jobs, while Putin does it with regularity.

Now, if you had equated what Putin has done with stuff that the Clintons have done, I would agree with you. The Clintons have been known to put out hit jobs on their 'enemies'.

Putin knew that there would be very gullible people like YOU out there to blame others.

[EnderWiggin1970]

If you are prejudiced against dictators why are you acting as if in service to them? Putin is a genuinely popular leader who wins his elections by a strong margin (and people in a position like that don’t need to cheat to win, like the people polling below 50%). By contrast your globalist elites that rule Europe, banning political parties and opposition leaders and arresting thousands for speech violations are the real dictators. You are naive if you think they are not murdering opponents like this and the others mentioned in the article. Claiming President Putin kills allies because of imaginary risks just marks you as an irrational zealot in your defense of leftist autocracy.

Investigation by whom?
