Russian President Vladimir Putin sent condolences today over the unfortunate accident that took Sally Yates’s life tomorrow.

“It is so tragic what has befallen her twenty fours hours from now.”

Yates, who was last seen testifying before the U.S. Senate about two seconds ago, had so much to offer if she would have lived beyond a day from now, according to the Russian leader.

“If only the future could have turned out differently.”

Putin apologized for not being able to attend the funeral but said he would be there in spirit.

“I will be otherwise occupied, but in my heart I feel very close to all of this.”
