Bem, este livro foi bastante interessante e mostra o nível de crimes que o Vladimir Putin praticou ao longo da sua carreira no KGB e no Kremlin. John Sweeney’s book is not a disinterested biography of Vladimir Putin, the eponymous “Killer in the Kremlin”. Sweeney said that Ukrainians (he is in Kyiv) told him they don’t trust Navalny, he still thinks Navalny as an option.The Chechens fought them to a kind of stalemate, partly because Yeltsin, when he had sobered up, realised that he had been stupid and cruel. Then again, who can blame him if there is an alcohol problem there since he’s been, seen and done it all during his years as a journalist? As far as the validity of Sweeney and his claims in the book, he has been credited as an award-winning journalist who has years of experience in the field.

This brilliant page-turner by a professional and honest journalist has received less attention than it deserves, perhaps because it doesn’t have an index or bibliography. In the midst of one of the darkest acts of aggression in modern history - Russia's invasion of Ukraine - this book shines a light on Putin's rule and poses urgent questions about how the world must respond. My mother used to read a lot of books when I was a child and I saw how much enjoyment these books would bring her.

I believe that what is happening in eastern Europe is a consequence of Carlyle’s Great Man theory of history.The overall view of the malignant narcissist is he is delusional, isolated and possibly unstable due to medication.

He also co-authored the investigation into the assassination of Daphne Caruana Galizia, Murder On The Malta Express. Even for someone who has read/heard/watched many of Sweeney’s Russian reports over the years, his book’s charge sheet against Putin – the cumulative effect of those itemised accounts of wars, poisonings and paranoia – seems as urgently new as tomorrow morning’s headlines. Taught me so much about the reality of the Ukrainian war with Russia and how psychopath Putin tries to control everything and everyone around him, regardless of the cost. Through these periods, especially the friends and associates made in the Cold War KGB and after, we see, all interspersed with insight from Sweeney's interviews, writings and physical interactions with "authorities", many well known Russian politicians, military, intelligence and 0ligarchs, along with journalists and ordinary citizens of Russia, we get to see how Putin's government works.I minded them less as the book went on, because it became clear that this is a topic that author cares about very much. THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER - NOW UPDATED WITH FOUR NEW CHAPTERS 'This swashbuckling book is a furious attack on the Russian president. Prior to its airing,video footage filmed by the Church of Scientology was released that showed Sweeney shouting at Scientology representative Tommy Davis during a visit to CCHR's "Psychiatry: An Industry of Death".

Interestingly, Queen Elizabeth and the King of Spain were made to wait for a shorter while than leaders of state (such as Obama or Merkel).Oh, do f*ck off", journalist John Sweeney often tweets in response to more lies peddled by the Kremlin and its despot in chief Vladimir Putin. p. 267) This may take us back to the autumn of 1952, when the ailing Stalin seems to have been planning yet another terrible crime against humanity. Rather it is a parade of adventures, told at breakneck pace, full of righteous indignation and an eye for the absurd. The evil dwarf-president is merely another one of those damn fool misfits like that scrappy little Stalin, or wee little Lenin.
