Should I fire him?

Hypothetic question. This guy asked me a Leetcode hard question, and then he just sat there to see me fail. I didn't get in. (additional note: he is from a country which thinks there should be no independence for us. Their thinking is we should belong to them, and it is best to see us fail. They also think of a region they got back: why do those people always give trouble and want democracy? Just obey. You can sense that he was sitting there, not saying a word, and even if you suggest something or ask a question, he'd reply with one word. He was just hoping you to fail).
So I leetcode'ed hard, and then got in later on. In 3 years, I became a manager.
And then his group got merged into our group, and now he is under me.
Should I fire him, ask him to do a task that'd take me 2 days and for him 2 hours, ask him to learn something that's take me a day or two, for him 1 hour, and use "if you need to find a reason, for sure you can" to fire him? HR will protect me, as usual.
But this is just hypothetical. Will you?
