You want to imply that Navalny was ppoisoned by the US to give Putin a bad name (as if he does not already have that) and to bring Germany to giving up Nord Stream 2?

I thought of that already. But that I did not voice it, I think tells clear enough what I think of that scenario currently: unlikely.

Russia'S top has a long and established record of poisoning its opponents with "signature poisons" and then deny any responsibililty, spread doubt, deflect. Possible maybe that this time somebody in command overestmated the chances to get away with it like the many times before: some diplomatic I-go-you-go, and thats it. And after the many weak replies from Europeans in the past, I can even understand that.
