Putin links Ukraine to Moscow massacre without evidence

The suspected gunmen “tried to hide and moved toward Ukraine,” Russian president says in televised address. Kyiv denies any involvement.

Russia’s President Vladimir Putin on Saturday suggested that terrorists who killed at least 133 people in Friday night’s attack at a Moscow concert hall were helped by someone based in Ukraine, without providing evidence. 

Ukrainian officials have denied any involvement in the massacre, for which Islamic State has claimed responsibility. It was one of the deadliest attacks on Russian soil in recent years.

Putin said 11 people have been detained in the killings, including the four gunmen. “They tried to hide and moved toward Ukraine, where, according to preliminary data, a window was prepared for them on the Ukrainian side to cross the border,” Putin said in a speech on Russian television Saturday.

Go to one of your Tankie instances. The US literally warned them a couple weeks ago.

You mean the exact same warning that Blinken is now trying to deny that they had knowledge of? In the same way that Biden threatened the Nordstrearm 2 pipeline a few weeks before it was bombed? The US is a terrorist Nation that has always projected what they were about to do

You mean the exact same warning that Blinken is now trying to deny that they had knowledge of?

Do I have to repeat myself? Stop with the alternate reality clownery and fuck off into your Tankie bubble. The US warned Russia a couple weeks ago, and then again a couple days ago, which Putin himself, personally, called bullshit, dismissing it. And now he tries to blame Ukraine for it.

It was either Ukraine or the US, mostly likely the US.

Yeah, and Russia clearly committed 9/11 while putting Iraq's WMDs inside the planes to make the following US invasion look ridiculous.
