    I wonder if this was incident or on porpoise? I mean, Turkey owes Russia some servicemen, but I don't think Russia plays that way, so I'm leaning on incident.
    "And how we burned in the camps later thinking, what would things have been like, if every security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain, whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?"

    Mr. Putin doesn't seem like the kind of guy to sneak around like that. If it was payback, he would say so in public and then flip them the bird.
