Need I point out that diplomat is a stressful job?

True.

The death/vanish story to watch are the Russian FSB and GRU people who suddenly were arrested in December and January (including one was seems to have been seized mid-meeting and taken from a conference room with a black bag over his head)

Someway and somehow, they got burned.
