That's how I see it

I broadly agree, but there are few nuances:
- the assasination could have been carried out by a non state group (or in fact non Russian group).
- Germany (and a number of other western states) tends to reject transfer of terrorists over convenient allegations by said terrorists that their rights would be abused in Russia (ie that they would be tortured).
- Civilised countries such as the USA kidnap people all the time
