Navalny's Wife Alleges Kremlin Awaits Novichok Poison Exit
In a gripping revelation, Yulia Navalnaya, the wife of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny, has accused the Kremlin of biding its time until traces of the deadly Novichok nerve agent vanish from her husband's body.
In a poignant video message released on Monday, Navalnaya boldly declared her intent to unveil the identities of those responsible for her husband's demise.
"Vladimir Putin killed my husband... We know exactly why Putin killed Alexei three days ago. We will tell you about it soon,” Navalnaya asserted, echoing the sentiments of many who have long condemned the Kremlin's crackdown on dissent.
Navalny's bruised body reportedly moved to Salekhard hospital morgue, per Novaya Gazeta Europe.
However, attempts by Navalny's mother, Lyudmila Navalnaya, and his legal team to access the morgue on Monday were thwarted, with his spokeswoman, Kira Yarmysh, reporting the obstruction on social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter.
The haunting echoes of past assassinations reverberate in Navalny's case, drawing comparisons to the tragic fate of Alexander Litvinenko, who succumbed to poisoning with Polonium 210 in London in 2006.
Litvinenko's widow, speaking to Sky News, unequivocally pointed the finger at Russian President Vladimir Putin, describing him as the perpetrator behind the demise of "the most prominent politician and the hope of a new Russia." She urged Western nations to stand in solidarity with critics of the "monster" Putin, underscoring the urgent need for support in the face of relentless repression.
As Navalny's death grips the international community, calls for justice reverberate louder than ever, with Yulia Navalnaya's unwavering resolve to expose the truth serving as a beacon of hope amidst the darkness of political persecution.
