U.S. Intelligence: Putin Likely Didn't Order Navalny's Killing

Apr 27, 2024, 03:08 AM

U.S. intelligence agencies, including the CIA and DNI, have concluded that Russian President Vladimir Putin likely did not directly order the killing of opposition leader Alexei Navalny, who died in February at the FKU IK-3 penal colony in the Yamalo-Nenets region. The findings suggest that while Putin did not orchestrate the timing of Navalny's death, he remains ultimately responsible for the incident. This assessment aligns with previous statements from Ukraine three months prior, which also indicated that Putin was not directly involved in Navalny's assassination.
