WWIII Return of the Ruskie

Kirillov has been Kirilled-ov.

Ukraine claiming responsibility, but feels like a joint venture probably with the CIA.
Haha, no – CIA would shit their pants. They have not done any bold operations against the Russians since 1980’s if not earlier. I’m sure Ukraine did not even inform their Western partners about this planned assasination, because they would either pressure them to call it off or leak it.

I think I wrote about this guy a year or so ago - so happy to know he not only survived all the combat assignments, but has also just been appointed an ambassador to Hungary by President Zelensky. No better way to shame the craven pro-Russian government of that country than sending an actual soldier who also happens to be an ethnic Hungarian and all-around an incredible person.

Hopefully he insists on a ground floor office.
 
Any meeting he has with Viktor Orban should be quite something.

Does the fact that the Hungarian President approved his appointment suggest a difference of outlook between the President and Orban?
 
I think that generally the ambassador is approved no matter what, unless it's a real controversial choice.

The new American ambassador to Greece is a Trump pick and apparently she's said in the past Greeks are freeloaders. So this could be interesting.
 
It's true that ambassadors are rarely if ever not approved, but Orban's been against helping Ukraine more or less from the beginning while this guy seems to have been at the sharp end of the fighting himself (I didn't know about him before rurik's post) so this appointment has the potential to be, or become, very controversial indeed. I guess time will tell.
 
It’s been more or less confirmed that Orban has been promised a chunk of Ukraine if Putin were to succeed in carving up the country - so from that perspective also having an ethnic Hungarian who is also obviously a Ukrainian patriot is a good way to undercut Orban’s narrative.
