Russian ambassador files lawsuit against Italian newspaper over article suggesting Putin's death

Russian Ambassador to Italy Sergey Razov filed a lawsuit on Friday against the Italian newspaper La Stampa after it published an analysis suggesting killing Russian President Vladimir Putin as a means of stopping the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

The analysis, titled "If killing Putin is the only way out," said that killing the Russian president might be the only option if all others are exhausted, Reuters reported.

Razov believed that the Italian news outlet was condoning and soliciting a crime to happen from their analysis, according to Reuters.

"Needless to say that this goes against the rules of journalism and morality," the Russian ambassador told reporters.
