He was just a brutal thug, but I didn’t think he was actually that stupid. I would be curious to know what Putin offered to lure him to Moscow, or if in fact he came against his will or came already dead, or he was just resigned to the fact that unless he wanted to eek out a few more month like a rat bolting from hole to hole one step ahead of FSB/KGB assassin squads, he was dead anyway and just wanted to get it over with.
Maybe as Hitler had done with Rommel, Putin offered to not touch his family if he consented to actively collaborated in the death Putin planned for him. Given the fact that Putin delivered a backhanded eulogy and a wreath to his family, I suspect that is what happened.
This may be one of the events in which the public gets to learn what has truly happened, decades after the event itself. Possibly after the collapse of this neo-tsarist regime. And that is, if the documents somehow manage to survive until that day.
