    We’re not talking about taking out former spies in foreign, sovereign nations you dolt. I used that as an example to show just how brazen and open they are about this stuff. Using such a dangerous method, on foreign soil, is basically unheard of.

    If you actually want to talk about frequency, we should be looking at the defenestration cases…

    This shit is happening so frequently that there are several wiki pages dedicated to listing them:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suspicious_deaths_of_notable_Russians_in_2022

    Scroll down to “see also” for a long list of related articles about the Russian government assassinating citizens and low-level bureaucrats.

    Assuming you actually give a shit

      Wikipedia does not have an article with this exact name.

      In any case, the defenestrations I’ve heard of have been within Russia, not outside it.

      Using such a dangerous method, on foreign soil, is basically unheard of.

      Not unheard of. US drone strikes on US citizens is a no-less dangerous a method.
