Now let's talk about the death of Navalny, Russia's biggest adversary, Putin's first.
Russia's most famous opposition leader died in prison on the 16th. Russia issued a statement saying that Navalny, who was in the third prison in the Yamal-Nenets region of Siberia, fainted while walking, and despite the efforts of medical personnel, he died.
In Russia, Navalny is the face of "anti-Putin", he regularly holds public marches to attack Putin as a "liar, thief", and he also masterminded the "Novichok" poison case, which Russia suffered from Western sanctions.
So, for Navalny's death, everyone puts the blame on Putin.
But Navalny was arrested in January and sentenced to 19 years in a Siberian prison near the North Pole. Navalny shouldn't have made much of a wave, but it's strange that he died so quickly.
According to the statement released by the Russian side, Navalny does not look sick, but has been poisoned, so to speak, he is a "boomerang".
Of course, I can't say that Navalny won't die in an accident, it's just my speculation, I've also seen it, and some ** even put this matter on the head of Zelensky ** and the CIA, and put the blame on Putin, but I think this possibility is very small, if Zelensky and the CIA really have so much energy that they can go to great lengths to poison a useless opponent, it would be even better.
Putin, on the other hand, is the most suspicious. Some speculate that Putin's biggest opponent is to secure his position and eliminate dissent before the election. But as I said before, Navalny can't make much of a wave, and with Putin's approval ratings already far surpassing Russia's, he can take out a non-threatening rival without much effort, which would only make people gossip.
There is also a theory that Putin wants to use Navalny as an "example" to deter those who oppose Russia. From Prigozhin to Navalny, we can see that whoever opposes Putin will not end well in Russia.
Of course, it is too early to judge Putin as **, and there is a high probability that Putin will become a victim in the whole incident.
A week ago, the Russian newspaper Izvestia said that American journalist Tucker Carlson told Putin that Russia wanted a peace agreement with Ukraine, which surprised him.
This means that Putin may really want to negotiate with the United States and discuss a ceasefire agreement between Russia and Ukraine, so he is willing to communicate with the United States, which is also a signal to Biden. Moreover, the Russians are already close to taking Avdiivka, and Putin feels that he has enough intelligence to negotiate with the United States, but Navalny's death has plunged them into a huge crisis, which has forced them to increase pressure on Putin.
True, this is what Biden said: "Navalny's death was caused by Putin and his "rogue squad". If that happens, everything Putin has done will be in vain.
So, in this case, who would assassinate Navalny only to sabotage Putin's plans to negotiate with Russia? I think it is more difficult for the "radicals" in Russia to assassinate Navalny than it is for the CIA.
In the eyes of the Russians, Putin is a "moderate" country that will not take Ukraine under their control, so they choose to avoid it. But in Russia, especially in the army, there are quite a few people who feel that Putin is "weak", just like Dumagurulev, the former commander of the 58th Army, which is now **, he once said that he would launch an attack on Poland and ** against London. One can imagine how bad the situation is in Russia.
In this way, Putin has changed from a victim to a victim, because he knows that it is impossible to give up on this matter.
However, these are all speculations on him, and what happened to Navalny's death is likely to become a long-term mystery.
