This should be a good excuse to put more sanctions on Russia.

But he's not my mate I just admire his tenacity and political skill. I would never want to be on the wrong side of Putin, he doesn't pull any punches, but I still think he didn't shoot the deputy opposition leader, apparently he was no threat to Putin as far as taking over leadership.

So.....are you pointing the finger at Putin without any real evidence? That's not nice.

If Abbott was shot in the back four times, would you automatically blame Shorty?

Sounds more likely to me though I wouldn't be surprised if it was Putin or at least he turned the other way if he knew it was about to happen.
