[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Pavel Durov saga should be instructive to Ukrainians. The West was happy to use him as a catspaw against Russia, contrasting the "authoritarian" Russian meddling with Western "freedom."

Once he outlived his usefulness, the hammer comes down. Discarded and off to the gulag because he didn't give someone something they wanted, all the past laurels forgotten.

He probably thought he would be told "well done good and faithful servant." But like Ukraine, he picked the side that discards its minions as soon as they are done with them[/quote]

Actually what his saga demonstrates is that the West will always treat you like a Russian when the hammer comes down.  It doesn't matter that you were raised in Italy, are a citizen of UAE, France and god knows how many other countries, a bona fide prodigy and a billionaire.  The West offers no safe haven, only an illusion of it. It's sort of ironic that the "great minds" behind personal sanctions thought it would help tighten the screws on Putin.  Quite the opposite.  It has shown wealthy Russians with legitimate businesses in the West that their money is not safe in the West. [/quote]

Putin's taint rubs off on anyone who comes close to him.   Stop crying and recognize that Putin is the problem.  [/quote]
