DISINFO: Navalny is a Western stooge and European politicians are puppets
SUMMARY
However, as Lavrov is now intimating, that stoic Russian forbearance may be coming to an end, in which case the Europeans can go and stick their Nord Stream pipeline up their Baltic.
European puppet politicians make a song and dance over the Western stooge Navalny and his regime-change mission while their silence is deafening in the case of Julian Assange who is being tortured in a British dungeon without him even being convicted of anything. Reliable partner? The EU is a “Borrell of laughs”!
RESPONSE
Recurrent pro-Kremlin disinformation narratives about Alexei Navalny, popular protests as staged from abroad and European politics as ruled by outside forces.
There is no evidence to suggest that the Russian opposition figure Alexei Navalny is, or has been under instructions from foreign powers. Alexei Navalny has long been the most prominent face of Russian opposition to President Vladimir Putin. Navalny's candidacy in the 2018 presidential election was banned by authorities over his conviction by a Russian court for embezzlement, which bars him from running for office. He has been arrested and imprisoned several times during his political career.
Most recently Alexei Navalny was detained and sentenced following his return to Moscow from Germany, where he was treated for the poisoning with Novichok-type nerve agent. The EU has condemned the detention of Alexei Navalny and called for his immediate release.
Read similar cases claiming that the US hopes that the Navalny case will lead to the cancellation of Nord Stream 2, that the West will falsely accuse Russia of poisoning Navalny, as with Skripal and Litvinenko, that the West has an interest in the death of Navalny to launch a new wave of sanctions against Russia, that Navalny is financed by the West as a fifth column against Russia, or Europe evacuated its agent Navalny, and poisoning is fake.
