it reminds me of a common practice in Russia when militzya accidentally "finds" dope in your pockets. it happened to my friends twice in Moscow.

Do you truly believe that Western police in so called
democratic countries is any different?

And I don't mean necessarily a bad thing. This is
normally practiced towards criminals/offenders for whom
not enough evidence base exist. Thus police/militia gets
time necessary to assemble evidence to convict those
unlawful people or at least isolate htem from the society
for a while.

Don't tell me you friends did not give any reason to
the militia to do that if what you are saying is the
truth.

I've been to Moscow many times and no one planted
me any dope if you belive me

A Russian naval task force departed Monday on a tour of duty in the Atlantic Ocean, including joint naval drills with the Venezuelan navy in November

A naval task force from the Northern Fleet, comprising the nuclear-powered missile cruiser Pyotr Velikiy, the large ASW ship Admiral Chabanenko, and support ships, left the Severomorsk base early Monday to conduct training exercises in the Atlantic," Capt. 1st Rank Igor Dygalo said

Pyotr Velikiy is a Kirov (Orlan) class nuclear-powered guided missile heavy cruiser, which has practically unlimited operational range and carries 20 SS-N-19 Shipwreck surface-to-surface missiles with either nuclear or high-explosive warheads and about 500 surface-to-air missiles of different types, supplemented by a large number of other weaponry.

Dygalo said that during the tour of duty the Russian warships would participate in joint naval exercises with the Venezuelan navy on November 10-14, in line with the 2008 training program and in order to expand military cooperation with foreign navies.

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez earlier confirmed that Venezuela would hold joint naval exercises with Russian warships in the Caribbean and said the Russian navy would receive a warm welcome in the Latin American country. In the photo: Pyotr Velikiy nuclear-powered guided missile heavy cruiser
