That is a dangerous bunch of presumptions:

1. Presuming the boat was attacked. 2. Presuming it was the Russian (or I'm presuming you did lol) 3. Based on the previous two presuming it was not an accident, and 4. Presuming apologies and compensations would not be issued in case it was.

It definitely is a dangerous bunch of presumptions. We start investigating based on presumptions, though.

No, you start investigating based on available facts.

Like an active war in the region, Russian warships in the vicinity, a history of aggressive action towards neighboring states?

Don't be pedant, especially when it doesn't even make sense.

I'm not being a pedant. Presumptions and assumptions are how we got into this mess in the first place.
