Trump discusses nomination, navalny death controversy on “MediaBuzz,” while US intelligence disputes Putin direct involvement

Former President Donald Trump spoke exclusively on Fox News’ “MediaBuzz” about clinching the Republican nomination, as well as Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny’s sudden death and his choice of language regarding illegal immigrants during the interview. Meanwhile, U.S. intelligence agencies have concluded that while Putin was responsible for poisoning Navalny in 2020, he likely did not order his death when he collapsed at a penal colony earlier this year. Russian authorities claimed Navalny fell ill after taking a walk and subsequently died from unknown causes, with European allies expressing skepticism over the claim that it wasn’t directed by Putin. In contrast, some of Navalny’s supporters have dismissed such suggestions as naive or ridiculous given how politically significant he was in Russia.
