The Death of Alexei Navalny and Putin's Regime

Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny has died in a Russian jail, sparking global outrage. Navalny, a prominent critic of President Vladimir Putin, had been imprisoned on politically motivated charges and was subjected to harsh conditions. The Kremlin claims he died after collapsing and losing consciousness, but suspicions of foul play persist. The international community, including President Biden, has condemned the reported death and held Putin responsible. However, there has been silence from former President Donald Trump and the Republican Party, highlighting their aversion to challenging Putin. The future actions and responses from the West will determine the consequences for Putin and his regime.
