> The most realistic course of action (at this moment) of any corrective recommendation is to remove them from the ISS. They've been threatening pulling out for a few years now, so let them? From my experience of life in Russia, I'd say this is one of the most effective ways dealing with people habitually resorting to the "do ... or we will sink together!" blackmail. Let the saboteur succeed, and exceed. You can swim, and the blackmailer likely cannot (and choosing the threat exactly for them fearing such outcome.) If somebody brings a stick of a dynamite on the ship, shouting, and swinging it around, give them 10 more, and say good luck. Such demeanour is wholly dependent on the other party's assumptions that they are harmed more than if they did nothing, which is the reverse in reality.
