Ruské politické vraždy

Rusko má bohatou tradici ve státem objednaných politických vraždách: Za všechny jmenujme alespoň vraždu Stolypina. V této tradici Rusko pochopitelně pokračovalo i v období SSSR.

Jak dosvědčuje dvouhvězdčičkový generál Securitate a poradce Ceauşescua, Ion Mihai Pacepa, Rusko nechalo zavraždit i Kennedyho: "“Ten,” Ceausescu remarked to me. “Ten international leaders the Kremlin killed or tried to kill,” he explained, counting them off on his fingers. Laszlo Rajk and Imre Nagy of Hungary; Lucretiu Patrascanu and Gheorghiu-Dej in Romania; Rudolf Slansky, the head of Czechoslovakia, and Jan Masaryk, that country’s chief diplomat; the shah of Iran; Palmiro Togliatti of Italy; American President John F. Kennedy; and Mao Zedong. (Among the leaders of Moscow’s satellite intelligence services there was unanimous agreement that the KGB had been involved in the assassination of President Kennedy.)"
