The issue of Alexei Navalny, a staunch opponent of Russian President Vladimir Putin, who died under suspicious circumstances in a dangerous prison in Russia, is in the news at the moment. After Navalny's death, America is now going to take very strict steps. Alexei Navalny, a staunch opponent of Vladimir Putin, was found dead in a Russian prison on February 16. He was sentenced to prison on charges related to extremism and fraud. He was kept under tight security in the Arctic Circle. He was in jail since January 2021 and was serving a 19-year sentence.
The White House says it is preparing to impose additional tough sanctions on Russia after Navalny's death. US National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said that some new sanctions will be imposed on Russia this week. However, there is no information yet about what kind of these restrictions will be. Kirby said that America still does not know how Navalny died. But somehow Russian President Putin is responsible for his death.
What is Naval's wife's allegation?
Navalny's wife Yulia continues to blame Putin for her husband's death. She has made it clear to Putin that she will not remain silent and will continue Navalny's struggle. Earlier, Yulia had said that the jail administration was hiding her husband's body with extreme cowardice and was reluctant to hand over the body to his mother. Yulia claims that her husband was murdered with a nerve agent called Novichok. Yulia said that we will not let Alexey's martyrdom go in vain and will stand firm.
I will never forgive Putin
Alexei Navalny's widow, Yulia Navalnaya, previously said, “I want to tell Putin and all his employees that they will not be forgiven for what they have done to our country, my family and my husband.” We must fight against this terrible regime in Russia today. Vladimir Putin must be held personally responsible for all the atrocities that have occurred in our country in recent years.
'Putin will have to pay the price'
Vladimir Putin was criticized a lot for sending Navalny to jail. He was accused of acting out of revenge. Hours after Russian authorities announced Alexei's death in prison, his wife Yulia attended an event in Munich, Germany, where she launched a blistering attack on Russian President Vladimir Putin.
