Kremlin Looking to Hire New Caterer
“In the year and a half that has passed since February 2022, two gas-industry executives were found dead with suicide notes. Three Russian executives were killed, alongside their wives and children, in what appeared to be murder-suicides. The body of the owner of a resort in Sochi was discovered at the bottom of a cliff.

Others have fallen out of windows or down staircases in Moscow, India, the French Riviera, and Washington, DC … So, yes, this is another mysterious death, but it is a new kind of mysterious death. With this plane crash, the violence on the periphery of Russia’s empire has now migrated to its very heart.” Anne Applebaum in The Atlantic (Gift Article): Prigozhin’s Death Heralds Even More Spectacular Violence.
