Shooter Negotiations Russian Style

Thought for the day.

Western security forces attempt to negotiate with cornered "shooters" into surrendering, if possible.

But not in Russia. The Barents Observer, March 24, 2020 reports:

In 1998 the Akula SSN Vepr “became known for an emergency situation with a 19-year serviceman that shot eight of his fellow sailors and barricaded himself in the ship’s torpedo compartment.

He was ultimately killed by a small bomb planted by the [Russian Federal Security Bureaus] FSB inside the telephone used for negotiations...”

Russians just have to put up with the FSB, or else.
