Putin Promotes Navalny's Executioner To General

Deputy head of the Federal Penitentiary Service Valery Boyarinev, who oversaw the torture of Alexei Navalny, received the rank of colonel general from Putin three days after the murder.

The Russians and Putin know exactly how this looks, which is why they did it. Serve Putin, get rewarded. Here's the official statement from TASS.

Russian President Vladimir Putin awarded the rank of Colonel General of the Internal Service to Deputy Director of the Federal Penitentiary Service Valery Boyarinev.

The decree on the increase was signed on February 19, three days after the death of opposition politician Alexei Navalny in prison.

Fellow oppositionist Ivan Zhdanov called Boyarinev’s promotion “Putin’s outright reward for torture.” “Boyarinev personally supervised the torture of Alexei Navalny in prison. The restriction of Alexey’s bills for the purchase of food, like all other tortures, was Boyarinev’s personal order from the Federal Penitentiary Service,” Zhdanov wrote .

and he seems like he actually wants to be known as a murderous dictator. He loves this! "I can murder anyone I want and you can fuck off if you don't admire and respect me for it".

He wears the title of "Murderous Dictator" with pride. It is his MO.

He is proud of being such a ruthless killer and having so much power.

He also enjoys the killing, he is quite sadistic in the way he kills people.
