In what is a grotesquely familiar incident, former Russian "climate czar" Anatoly Chubais who resigned from his post in opposition to Russian thug and war criminal Vladimir Putin's attack on Ukraine, has been hospitalized in an undisclosed European country suffering from sudden symptoms of Guillain-Barre syndrome. The syndrome is a rare nervous system condition in which the nervous system is attacked by the body's immune system. Chubais' wife has indicated that his condition is moderately severe and stable.
Russian critics of Putin's regime have been attacked in the past by nerve agents, which are a favorite weapon of Russian assassins abroad. From defector Alexander Litvinenko who was fatally poisoned in 2006 in London by polonium-210 added to his tea, to double agent Sergei Skripal who suffered a nerve agent attack in Salisbury, UK in 2018, to Putin's political adversary Alexei Navalny who was poisoned by a nerve agent in his hotel room in 2018, all bear the marks of assassination attempts by Putin's agents. We'll know before long through medical forensics whether this rare condition was brought on by Putin's sick need for revenge.
