So that means the US have jurisdiction over his body? that's interesting.

EU unnamed officials reported to me weird information about Churkin soon after his death. Maybe SVR could pay a visit to EU officials for further "details" and maybe a laugh.

So this healthy 64 year old suddenly died exactly 1 month into Trump's presidency. Something smells fishy.

Surprise, surprise. Even though Trump's ghost-staffed State department didn't have a clue that the Mexican Foreign Minister was in Washington DC yesterday, they did find time for this:

The State Department asked the New York Medical Examiner not to publicly release information about the cause of death of Russia's ambassador to the United Nations.
