Until now, Rusians secret services (and Israels) only execute dissidents abroad. But we cannot forget that the US continues to use the death penalty, even for minors and the mentally ill. Our “friends” Saudi Arabia is even worse. Therefore we should not be so hypocritical and begin to clean our own ranks first, before judging.

US obviously has problems in this area as well.
