Moral of the story. Don't compete with the US in dealing arms, drugs, etc. The US doesn't like big players encroaching on their turf.

I don't understand why he didn't just demand the meeting either take place in Russia or another non-extradition country. The Russian authorities must've thought him an idiot for doing so, but fought for him vociferously, which is actually alarming, because it means he's very useful to them as an asset. The deal that recently went down was a big mistake, and they should've gave him life.
