Turin, 14 February (LaPresse) – "Five European nations have determined that Russia poisoned Alexei Navalny. This was a cowardly act by a frightened leader. Russia has long acted as a terrorist state, relying on terrorist methods. Poisoning political opponents. Silencing journalists. Invading peaceful countries.‘ This was written on X by the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen. ’This is the true face of Russia today. We honour the memory of Alexei Navalny and all those whom Putin's Russia has violently silenced over the years," she added.
