I mean if you'd just think for a second the answer is quite obvious.

They've had more than enough time to prevent this. Instead they kept their zero COVID policy while the rest of the world moved on.

Now their next wave is hitting and it's hitting hard.

The US can only trade when Russia is willing to make a deal. Clearly they haven't agreed on something. It's going to cost a lot more than an arms dealer who has 7 years before he's freed anyways, that's for sure.

You do realize that any deal requires Russia's cooperation right? I hope you do.

You do realize that Bout was going to be released at some point either way? He wasn't serving a life sentence and would be released in 2029.

America isn't leaving someone to rot in Russia. It was a pretty good trade.
