Nineteen years ago, on October 7, 2006, Anna Politkovskaya was assassinated by Putin's hitmen.
She was the first to tell the truth about Russia's mass crimes in Chechnya, which foreshadowed those in Syria, Ukraine, Africa and elsewhere. They could have been prevented.
Almost no one listened to her.

2. This 1-on-1 meeting is already a huge win for Putin. By sidelining Zelenskyy, Putin has reinforced his narrative about the illegitimacy of #Ukraine as a sovereign state.
