Another Trump / Putin scandal, don't worry Putin Tillerson in & Trump got your back
-----
The State Department asked the New York Medical Examiner not to publicly release information about the cause of death of Russia's ambassador to the United Nations.
Vitaly Churkin died unexpectedly in New York last month, one day before his 65th birthday.
"As outlined in formal requests from the United States Department of State, Ambassador Churkin's diplomatic immunity survives his death. Further questions concerning this matter should be directed to the United States Department of State."
