Social Media Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Trump Questions Putin's Involvement in Navalny's Death, Drawing Criticism Former President Donald Trump has once again raised doubts about Russian President Vladimir Putin's involvement in the death of opposition leader Alexei Navalny, prompting criticism from Western leaders and political figures. Navalny's mysterious death in a Russian prison last month has sparked international outcry, with many Western leaders, including President Joe Biden, attributing responsibility to Putin. However, Trump, in a recent interview with Fox News, refrained from explicitly blaming Putin for Navalny's demise. When asked about Putin's culpability, Trump responded, "I don't know," adding, "Perhaps. I mean, possibly, I could say probably. I don't know." He further speculated about Navalny's life expectancy statistically, suggesting that the opposition leader could have lived for many more years based on insurance data. Trump's reluctance to definitively attribute Navalny's death to Putin drew scrutiny, particularly in light of Navalny's previous poisoning attempt, widely believed to have been orchestrated by the Russian government. Despite the evidence pointing towards Russian involvement, Trump remained noncommittal, stating, "You certainly can't say for sure." Critics lambasted Trump's remarks, citing his history of downplaying Putin's actions and their implications for international relations. Trump's initial comparison of Navalny's situation to his own legal battles received widespread condemnation, with former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi condemning his comments as "beneath the dignity of a human being." Pelosi further questioned Trump's relationship with Putin, suggesting that his unwavering loyalty to the Russian leader raised concerns about potential leverage Putin may hold over him. She criticized Trump's remarks as disqualifying for any future political aspirations, including another presidential bid. Trump's interview coincided with the final day of voting in Russian elections, widely expected to result in Putin's reelection to another six-year term in a process deemed noncompetitive by critics. Despite the lack of genuine opposition, thousands of Russians mobilized in protest against Putin's regime, highlighting widespread discontent with his leadership. As Trump's comments continue to stir controversy, they underscore broader tensions surrounding Russia's political landscape and its implications for global diplomacy. The former president's reluctance to confront Putin's actions raises questions about the United States' stance on human rights abuses and authoritarian regimes under future leadership. 19.03.24 Source 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this day and age some lefties believe what they think without any evidence . Putin can be highly suspected of being responsible, but no one can say for sure without any evidence . With the current evidence available , "probably" is the most that can be said about it 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are simply stepping into line. Accusations of murder and criminality happen all the time. This isn’t a court of law, there is no requirement for a presumption of innocence. Just as those who hold Putin responsible for this murder are by no means all ‘lefties’. Its your resort to ‘lefties’ that revealed the basis of your argument. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems the Saudi sovereign wealth fund doesn't price a pass for MBS that highly, especially after the deed has been done. Maybe the 2 billion they gave Kushner isn't paying itself back the way they expected it to. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick you are stuffing around with an important issue in my opinion. Clearly it is extremely likely it was a government sanctioned death. Nothing is 100 per cent of course. Look at the facts - clearly fine the day before, body not released in a timely manner, previous attack etc. I consider it Trump's responsibility to be definitive in his condemnation of the circumstances and secrecy of his death rather than playing the - who knows how he died - game. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are using the extreme comparative argument. I like World Leaders to take a stand in important matters like freedom to vote, freedom to protest and freedom of the press, in such a country as Russia. Freedom to live like we have. The reason for his death is highly likely not to be due to natural causes. It is not about standing on a box and saying - He Did It - but acknowledging such an events importance and significance beyond the sad death of one man. Many world leaders spoke up. Trump has no opinion and seems often to support what happens in Russia. If that's of no significance to you or even a good thing then it makes it easier for me to understand why you might support him.
