Russians got tired of just poisoning Putin’s Russian enemies, now they’re branching out. Under any under President, this would get a strong rebuke. Under this one, it’s on a back page in the Daily Mail with a muted protest by the State Department.
Via Daily Mail:
Two U.S. diplomats were slipped date-rape drugs while attending a UN conference in Russia last year, a new report has revealed.
The diplomats, a man and a woman, attended a UN anti-corruption conference held on November 2-6 last year in St Petersburg, according to Radio Free Europe.
After the conference one night, the two were drinking at an upscale hotel when they both suddenly fell ill.
One of the diplomats was taken to a hospital, but when doctors there tried to take tissue samples to determine what caused the sudden illness, the hospital lost power.
