They need his help FINDING weapons. I'm not sure if you're ready about the war, but the world is finding out that Russia weapons ain't worth shyt.
Even beyond that, it is a false equivalency to try to bring US and Russia selling weapons into it.
The math is very simple. That person going free is going to cause more chaos and issues across the planet and that chaos wasn't worth Brittney Griner's entertainment value as a basketball player.
I will repeat, Russia is the second biggest arms dealer in the world. They MAKE the weapons.
And since these mans been outposted from the global community, they don't have problems making arrangements with countries like Iran. They don't need Viktor Bout for shyt.
And Viktor Bout wasn't exactly giving Russians weapons. He was out sending Russian and other weapons to smaller nations.
He been away for 15 years. In a contacts industry, that’s retirement. He will probably take his money and go away.
You all have to stop letting the media tell you every foreign baddie is a Hitler redux.
