Dead Russian ex-spy accuses Putin
Russian ex-spy Alexander Litvinenko has accused Russian President Vladimir Putin of involvement in his death, in a statement dictated before he died…read the rest of the BBC article here.
I have to say I’ve been quite intrigued by this story since it hit the news. I’m not sure that we’ll ever get to know the truth about what has happened here but, if the accusations are even remotely close to the reality, then it does seem quite alarming.
What do you think? Could the Russian president actually be involved in behaviour like this or has Russia genuinely moved forward?

I see there’s no comments up here yet. Maybe we don’t want to share his fate!!! I think its lets wait and see what the police uncover, this kind of control is more institutional than you may want to believe, power games with little respect for who gets in the way, just look at how our governments behave towards developing nations when signing trade agreements and not forgetting their own citizens!!!
