Last night, a suicide attempt by former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev was thwarted.
While cleaning Dmitry Medvedev’s office, a woman from the servants accidentally drew attention to several sheets of paper written on the table and on the floor, apparently she was interested in the contents. So, having discovered five variants of a suicide note written in Dmitry Anatolyevich’s large, sweeping handwriting, the servants immediately informed the guards. The guards found Dmitry Medvedev drunk and with a pistol in his right hand. After some persuasion, Medvedev handed over the pistol, which, as it turned out, was loaded with live ammunition. Under Medvedev, another note was discovered, apparently the sixth final version. Everything was immediately reported to Russian President Vladimir Putin. Putin ordered not to give Medvedev any more alcohol and to control every step until a special decision. The incident was decided not to be made public. In his notes, Dmitry Medvedev wrote that he could not endure humiliation and emotional distress, he feltincapable of anything, hates the war and those who unleashed it, and blames Russian President Vladimir Putin, Yuri Kovalchuk, Nikolai Patrushev, Alexander Bortnikov and Igor Sechin for his death. In one version of the note, Medvedev writes that he is tired of being a puppet. Almost everything written is chaotic and emotional in nature and apparently was written while intoxicated. But if Medvedev’s suicide had succeeded, how would the Russian leadership get out with explanations of what happened?
