Quite a brave article from Oliver Bullough. Basically criticising Putin - obliquely, of course.

This is a job nobody wants. The kiss of death. Same with the PM's job.
I hope Lutsenko doesn't accept the post. He is better as a politician. Makes some good lively speeches at times. Strong nationalist streak, with a sense of humour also.
The General Prosecutor - dead end job. The first to take the blame when anything goes wrong.
