According to a recent report by the Wall Street Journal, U.S. intelligence agencies have indicated that Russian President Vladimir Putin likely did not order the assassination of opposition leader Alexei Navalny. This revelation comes amidst growing tensions between Russia and the United States over the treatment of Navalny, who was poisoned with a nerve agent last year.
The report suggests that while Putin may not have directly ordered the attack on Navalny, he is believed to have created an environment in which such actions against political opponents are tolerated. This has raised concerns about the state of democracy and human rights in Russia under Putin's leadership.
