{{quotebox-float|Most of the semi-official explanations for [[Ratcliffe]]’s unannounced—until it was in process—flight to Moscow in a huge heavy lift military transport (a [[C-17]]) have failed to convince observers and analysts. By “semi-official” I mean the accounts presented in [[mainstream media]] outlets like the [[NYT]], the [[WaPo]], and [[WSJ]]—media outlets which are generally assumed to have access to official regime sources and even to serve as outlets for [[narrative]]s that the regime wishes to propagate. The unsatisfactory nature of these accounts, often centering around Ratcliffe’s use of a huge military transport (which could not make the flight without refueling) rather than his official jet—a long range Gulfstream V that could easily make the flight from [[DC]] to [[Moscow]] non-stop. The transport of a motorcade for Ratcliffe isn’t sufficient reason for the use of a C-17, since those huge transports can accommodate a motorcade and still have room for returning the remains of US service personnel who died in the [[US]] [[war]] on [[Russia]]....Today we’re seeing renewed speculation which I find plausible. It centers around the supposition that the Trump regime didn’t simply contact the [[Kremlin]] and say, ‘Hey, how’s about our boy John comes over to talk to you guys?’ The supposition, instead, is that the Russian side requested [[Ratcliffe]]’s presence in Moscow for a presentation provided by Russian officials.

::Sources say there was a refrigeration unit onboard the C-17 which adds to the speculation that the mission was to retrieve bodies of dead CIA operatives.
