    "This is nice of you to mention that Putin and Shoigu are fishing together.. even the highest ones are ordinary people.." THEY are fishing together AND they are BOTH members of the authoritarian and corrupt Russian elite...so that proves nothing...IF anything people like Shoigu & Putin in Russia are EVEN more disconnected & isolated from ordinary folk than elites in the West. Putin when he meets with "ordinary folk" actually sometimes has actors play some of the "ordinary folk" complete with scripted lines...

    To play the devil's advocate, Yeltsin broke the law grossly without consequences. We will never know if Putin could do the same. Putin is, by western standards, obsessed with following the law in even the most minor matters. I'm quite certain that doing so is about his personal conviction, not fear of possible consequences. President's display of professionalism sets important example for others.

    "Russian democracy = Head of state subject to national laws" FALSE In actual fact Putin is not subject to ANY Russian laws. He is immune from any type of RU prosecution FOR LIFE !! See Below for details-- He himself signed the bill granting him such immunity in Dec.. 2020 (see below for story ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Vladimir Putin has signed legislation that will grant former presidents of Russia lifetime immunity once they leave office." "The bill, which was published online on Tuesday, gives former presidents AND their families !! ; immunity from prosecution for crimes committed during their lifetime." "They will also be exempt from questioning by police or investigators, as well as searches or arrests." "The legislation was part of constitutional amendments approved this summer in a nationwide vote that allow Putin, 68, to remain president until 2036." "Before the bill became law, former presidents were immune to prosecution only for crimes committed while in office".

    Belgorod is not in the Ukrainian line of contact where Ukraine is fighting to protect their country and despite the complaints of ammunition shortage and pressing for the last USD 61 billion aid in weapons and ammunition, it would appear that there is not really a shortage of ammunition if the Ukrainians can afford to shell civilians in Belgorod and Donbass "wasting" much in shortage ammunition. The US, UK and the other countries are complicit in war crimes by supplying weapons and ammunition to Ukraine to kill civilians. They cannot claim that just because the weapons and ammunition have been transported to Ukraine, these now are Ukranian and what the Ukrainians did with it is the responsibility and accountability of Ukraine. The question is who provided these weapons and ammunition? If they were not supplied or shipped or transported to Ukraine, would the irresponsible killing of civilians have occurred?
