There was a trial in 2014 for the men who murdered one of the journalist that Putin is said to have killed.
She was killed in 2006.
All of these pictures were taken long after Putin was accused by Western powers of having journalists critical of him killed.
Yet for some strange reason the media here in the United States praised Obama for his statesmanship when these pics were taken and Obama was talking glowingly of Putin.
Only when Trump said he respected Putin does the media go berserk. I wonder why?
