The UK, Sweden, France, Germany and The Netherlands are confident that Alexei Navalny was poisoned with a lethal toxin.

This is the conclusion of our Governments based on analyses of samples from Alexei Navalny. These analyses have conclusively confirmed the presence of epibatidine.

Epibatidine is a toxin found in poison dart frogs in South America. It is not found naturally in Russia.

    He is calling it weirdly timed western propaganda which contradicts previous western propaganda (which it is). Also just because it’s 5 different counties doesn’t make it more believable if they’re all in NATO

      How so?

      Both of you didn’t provide any reputable evidence.

        What do you mean?

        @yogthos@lemmy.ml posted a link from Kyivpost saying it’s a blood knot (a western vassal) and you posted it’s poisoning. The release timing of the findings now so long when it’s out of the news cycle is weird (apart from the propaganda value of “russia bad”)

          Ukraine said that it thinks it’s blood clot, other countries say it’s poison.

          Where is the propaganda exactly here?

          I feel like you are trying to make up imaginary dots to connect to prove your already made conclusion.

            Your question implies that you think there is something as “not propaganda”, which is very naive. Also propaganda works better with things that are not said that with things that are said.

            In this case the propaganda is the pearl clutching about the poisoning of a fascist and dismissing the highlighting that Navalny was a facist as Russian propaganda.

              I guess you meant to say that maybe the Propaganda is the friends we made along the way?

              In all seriousness, you either have a proof or you don’t.

              It’s a waste of time to keep asking you for facts, because you keep providing your feelings and conspiracy theories instead.
