Russia wants to question ex-ambassador McFaul

US establishment rallies around martyr figure of ex-ambassador McFaul



Former US ambassador to Moscow Michael McFaul was touched that the Senate voted to protect him from being hauled off to a Russian dungeon – or at least that’s what the establishment crowd made it look like.
McFaul was the US envoy to Russia from February 2012 to February 2014, leaving Moscow just days after the US-backed coup in the neighboring Ukraine. His name was mentioned by Russian officials in the context of a proposal made by President Vladimir Putin at the Helsinki summit to arrange for mutual questioning of individuals suspected of wrongdoing, under a 1999 treaty on Mutual Legal Assistance in Criminal Matters.

Let's not hear any more nonsense about the US demanding to question Russian officials, eh ?

I'm not sure if I understand your point.

Putin wants to throw McFaul in jail.

That's an insane thing. Ambassadors have Diplomatic immunity and beyond the moral issue of throwing him under the bus it compromises ALL of our diplomats

Are you claiming that anybody who has held a diplomatic post has immunity forever ?

Besides, we only want to question him- not throw him into Guantanamo.
