MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia said on Sunday it had thwarted terrorism attacks reportedly planned in St. Petersburg thanks to a tip from Washington, bringing personal thanks again from President Vladimir Putin to his U.S. counterpart Donald Trump.
Russian news agencies cited the Federal Security Service (FSB) as saying that thanks to the information, two Russians were detained on Dec. 27 on suspicion of plotting attacks during New Year festivities in St. Petersburg.
The Kremlin said Putin passed on his gratitude to Trump during a phone call on Sunday for the tip from U.S. special services. It gave no more details.

You have that right, Brother.
Thanks for all the excellent discourse this past year, best wishes to you and yours for a happy, healthy, and prosperous year in 2020, FRiend.
Russia has weapons, yes, but they know the retaliation would be massive and thoroughly destructive and probably finish them as any kind of power.
The dems, on the other hand, seem to have zero fear of retaliation, and try to get away with everything they can, thanks to years of GOP spinelessness.
Hence... my point.
COLLUSION!!!!!!!!
Same to you my brother... :^)
Agree, but it sucks leaving the survival of the country in the hands of good Russian judgement, given that the Democrats are simply unable to behave responsibly.
