Unexpected deaths of six Russian diplomats in four months triggers conspiracy theories

Several deaths have been described as 'heart attacks' or the result of a 'brief illness' by officials, in some cases despite evidence to the contrary.

When Russia’s ambassador to the United Nations died suddenly in New York last week, he became the sixth Russian diplomat to die unexpectedly since November, leaving internet conspiracy theorists trying to spot a pattern.

Vitaly Churkin, 64, was rushed to hospital from his office at Russia’s UN mission on 20 February, after becoming ill without warning on his way in to work.

It was initially reported that Mr Churkin may have suffered a heart attack, but following an autopsy medical examiners said the death required further study. 

Media company Axios note that not only is Mr Churkin’s death unexplained, but it is also remarkably similar to the deaths of Russia’s Ambassador to India on 27 January, the country’s consul in Athens on 9 January, and a Russian diplomat in New York on US election day, 8 November.

The three other deaths were all also labelled “heart attacks” or the result of “brief illnesses”. 

Two more diplomats died more clearly violent deaths in the same period: Russia’s Ambassador to Turkey, Andrei Karlov, was assassinated by in Ankara at a photography exhibition on 19 December, and on the same day another diplomat, Petr Polshikov, was shot dead in his Moscow apartment. 

Additionally, an ex-KGB chief, Oleg Erovinkin, who was suspected of helping a British spy draft a dossier on Donald Trump, was found dead in the back of his car on boxing day, 26 December. Mr Erovinkin also was an aide to former deputy prime minister Igor Sechin, who now heads up state-owned oil company Rosneft.

The timeline in the article is very disturbing.

So is Putin covering his tracks? Even the dates are very suspicious, one happened the day right after Christmas when no one in the world is paying attention and the morning of the US election day, one fell from the roof of the Russian Consulate in NY, but the story was changed to a "heart attack."

Putin killed his political oponent in the middle of the presodential campaign  

He saw he was going to loose to him big time.. and ****ing killed him

As someone from Ukraine and knowledge of Russia's past, I can't say this is completely unheard of. However, 6 diplomats in such a short time is risky. It's almost like Russia wants to be caught. Politics is a risky career for them.

maybe only half were supposed to die, and the other half really were just unfortunate medical issues--and now Russia is caught with their hand in the cookie jar. karma is a bitch.
