So Putin is the populist?

On Dec. 13, the anti-corruption activist Alexei Navalny became the first politician to announce his intention to challenge President Vladimir Putin in the 2018 election -- and he is trying to run as a more ardent nationalist than the unabashedly populist ruler.

Maybe all the terrorists were dark-skinned?

If they were all dark skinned why the need to mention skin colour at all.

Not all the people in the Caucasus are dark-skinned. The clue Caucasus - Caucasian

For reference:

It's another reason why Caucasian may be considered racist in modern day anthropology.

The Russians need to be a bit more discreet when going around bumping people off

they should send there agents to Israel for some training

belling cat have virtually tracked there agents around the world and found out who and when they tried to bump that opposition leader off

there worst than the French

What do Russians eat?

Cabbage too. I had a sandwich with it in when there. It was rather nice so treated in some fashion or the other.

Putin has the usual politician problem that all face at some point. They loose popularity. So far it's mostly at the younger end of the age range. They expected changes that haven't happened and probably can't as usual.
