Hmmmm....Have you ever read anything about Russian history? Overall they are doing quite well at the moment compared to most of the time.

Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.

It's their modus operandi. Eliminate, jail or banish political adversaries. Have been doing it for decades. At least all the way back to Leon Trotsky.

You left out "Kill".

Look at what happened to Trotsky.

Western European monarchies knew how to kill their enemies as well. Machiavelli was not Russian.

Eliminate in my opinion was meant to include "kill".
