Do you think someone can procure polonium and travel around the west to kill someone with it without the security services knowing about it?<br>2. If they don't know, how come?<br>3. If the Russian constitution says no extraditions, then there is no point in the UK demanding extradition<br>4. I don't really think any court in the UK is going to 'hand over' Berezovsky<br>5. Who knows why the UK just deported someone it later claimed was here to murder Berezovsky<br>6. It is true that a lot of dissident and opposition figures in Russia get killed without any prosecutions for murder</p><p>I'ts messy. Games are played on both sides. Sure, Russia can show that the rule of law pertains and that the courts are more powerful than the executive. But I don't see it happening. Unlike the UK where it happens all the time.</p>ivanpopeThu, 19 Jul 2007 07:19:28 -0000
