User blog comment:Alexguy96/Doesn't Dima Mayakovsky die when trying to stop the bomb in Paris?/@comment-4514662-20111031234633

The Kaffarov mission was before Paris. Blackburns flashbacks are not told in order. He met Black in the Kaffarov mission(when Black killed cole and decided to work with Dima to stop Solomon). So paris must have been after that.
