Quote:A former Russian MP who fled to Ukraine last year has been shot dead outside a hotel in the capital, Kiev.

Denis Voronenkov and his bodyguard were attacked as they left the Premier Palace hotel in the centre of the city, reports say.

The bodyguard fired back at the attacker and both were wounded, according to local media.

Mr Voronenkov was a controversial figure, who left Russia amid accusations of fraud.

Witnesses say they heard seven shots fired outside the hotel. The attack was most likely a contract killing, Kiev police chief Andriy Kryshchenko told 112 Ukrayina TV.

President Petro Poroshenko went further, accusing Russia of "state terrorism". He also linked the shooting to the series of explosions at a munitions dump near Kharkiv, in Ukraine's north-east, describing it as the "signature style of Russian special services"

If you haven't been paying attention, Putin has been systematically killing anyone who opposes him.

If anything, he is sending a message to Trump.

You should be happy. That's what you and your ilk have been pushing all this time.

Good Lord...I'm sure that's exactly what it is.

I'm not happy at all. I think it's horrible. I knew it was only a matter of time before the conservatives flew off that handle but I never thought they would stoop to colluding with the enemy to regain power.

It's absolutely shocking even for the republicans.

It's amazing to see the same people who went ape **** over the slightest mistep of Obama like the cop that "acted stupidly" or the "you can keep your plan" but now in the face of lie after lie after lie of Trump the same people suddenly are totally okay with it.

It's beyond hypocritical.

I personally think the Trump/Putin stuff is way overblown. I do think there's something there that he's not telling us, but the media is making giants out of these windmills.

Now, what this does show us is that Putin is not the type of guy you want to defend by saying that America kills people too. You don't want to be in his camp.

I think there is already enough evidence to suggest that the connect is more than just coincidental.

Whether or not anything illegal was done is still in question.
