Putin Says Navalny Might Not Get Out of Prison Alive
June 14, 2021 at 7:35 am EDT By Taegan Goddard


Russian President Vladimir Putin denied ordering a hit on political rival Alexei Navalny, but in an interview with NBC News he did not guarantee that the jailed Kremlin critic, who survived being poisoned with a nerve agent, would get out of prison alive.

Said Putin: “Look, such decisions in this country are not made by the president.”

Washington Post: Biden will give Putin a list of demands. The Russian president may ignore them.

MSNBC gave him a platform to speak to the American public, the idiots, so he used it. Of course, he was going to say something shocking. He knows that the Russian people will take to the streets if Navalny dies and this time he may not be able to shut the protests down.
