CNN joins an investigation by the group Bellingcat that has pieced together how the Russian Security Service followed Russian opposition leader Alexey Navalny and his team throughout a trip to Siberia just prior to his poisoning in August 2020. CNN's Clarissa Ward reports.

This sounds like something straight out of a mystery movie
@Matthew Smith, why so Navalny instead of Putin? How do they differ then?
@Wserthmar I already told you, as of writing Navalny has yet to Murder anyone yet. If your point is that both are Russian nationalist, point taken. Nevalny is also a nationalist, like I said HES RUSSIAN. Europe and the west have obvious issues with Russian nationalism, but my personal moral issue is that THE PRESIDENT OF RUSSIA VLADIMIR PUTIN MURDERS HIS POLITICAL OPPONENTS. THATS WORSE THAN ANYTHING. You can’t tell a person “ok so he’s murdered a few guys, but I don’t think that disqualifies him as a lead…”
NO. NO. NOOOOO. NO MURDER PLEASE!!!!
I would advice against trying to engage with anonymous trolls in this thread. “He believes Crimea belongs to Russia” is a year-long smear campaign that is derived from Navalny avoiding direct replies for not to be incarcerated as a “separatist”, as claiming that Crimea, or Kurlis might not part of Russia is punishable by years in prison.
As for his supposed antisemitism and homophobia, well, perhaps him having a Jewish head of campaign Leonid Volkov is not convincing enough, but him being openly, directly, supported by a variety of Russian ethnicities, and people of LGBT+ spectrum definitely shows otherwise.
It’s putin who supports homophobia and signs the homophobic laws, it’s putin who pushes white supremacy, cracks antisemitic jokes and signs the laws against Russian ethnic minorities.
Yeah because it all scripted.
@Vokabre all very true, but I can’t not engage when I see such a false statement like his.
I am grateful for Navalny surviving the assassination attempt and for brave journalists helping solve the murder attempt on Navalny. Putin and his helpers need to be prosecuted ASAP

Good luck with that.
Brave journalists? Wow just wow. I hope your a shill and not that stupid.
@Александр Воронков sorry for my ignorant countryman sir. She’s a liberal and unfortunately are abundant in numbers here yet not abundant in intelligence. My country has no quarrels with Russia. China is our enemy.
@Александр Воронков hahaha good one Alexander.
And yes guys, this is not a movie. THIS IS REAL.

@Allison Denelsbeck lol!!! I’m not a dr who guy so I had to look it up but COOOOL!!!! I’m the 11th doctor. NEAT.
@Wserthmar Russia The world doesn’t believe Putin sympathizers.
@KydoimosOfMachai ай, какой молодец.
@Андрей Титулов 🙂
What a brave journalist!
Navalny is being pushed to the Russian president’s seat. He believes Crimea belongs to Russia and not to Ukraine. He’s a false liberal, he’s still an imperialist and will not be any better.
Navalny will be a new dictator. Russian society loves dictators only
Here in America I’d settle for even a cowardly journalist, as long he actually engaged in journalism.
Propagandist not journalist.
💩💩💩💩💩💩
Goh yes

It’s just scary that he can get away with all of this. Other countries need to do more to hold them to account..
they all do it, good luck
Because they have nukes, Allied to China and they hold veto power at the UN. We give a blank check to Israel and in turn Russia and China covers for Iran, North Korea and others. Just imagine if trump got re-elected how dark the world would become. He would’ve declared martial law on a false pretext then centralize power to become a dictator too.
Accountable for Epstein death or more recent Brandy Vaughan You say ???
@Dmitrijs Savvins We’re gonna learn some juicy stuff after trump leaves, Especially if Republicans lose the senate too.
Don’t expect United States to hold them accountable. We have a Russia and China sympathizer who is about to take office. Maybe in 2024, though.
Trumps boss is going to be pissed off about this.
@Wserthmar sources or you’re a bot, Putin.
blacksmoke3113, I’m not a bot, I hate Trump, he’s a Putin’s puppet yet that doesn’t mean Navalny isn’t https://youtu.be/ildXpDzg0PA
👆Navalny says here “Crimea isn’t just a sandwich, it’s a big island, so we probably shouldn’t give it back”
Navalny never said that it belongs to Russia. He only stated that it’s a complicated problem and if you follow all the international rules it will take years to resolve. You can’t just hand over people and territory to someone.
@Wserthmar most Russians believe that, perhaps they have a point, historically speaking. The way Putin did it wasn’t right, highly illegal actually, but even he had his reasons some of them credible…. but that doesn’t give him the right to poison his enemies as well as innocent bystanders.
@blacksmoke3113 no, he does actually said so. If I remember correctly, when he was asked if he would give Crimea back to Ukraine, he answered – “it’s not a sandwich, you can’t just give it back”
I do not support Putin, and from Russia myself though
Clarissa you are brave facing giants of woes esp in their homeland. Glad Navalny is doing ok
It’s wild how many they’ve poisoned. Last year I read From Russia, With Blood- it goes into quite a lot of detail of several poisonings.
Shes a brave soul for walking up to a murderers front door.. wtf
💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩
The dude is perhaps more scared now than she and the camera operator could have ever been, as after he’s exposed he might be well… disposed
@Vokabre Oh yeah he is not gonna have a long life lmao. Giving my life for Putin!!
Toh yes
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
I was expecting three silent shots through the door but luckily he realized he was on camera.
What a good piece, bravo for the journalist !
THIS IS JOURNALISM AT ITS BEST – WELL DONE
Propaganda at its best. I doubt you follow this womans work a lot.
I’m gratefull to CNN for the Truth. I’m Russian citizen.
💩💩💩💩💩💩
@White please don’t watch cnn for real news. watch it for a laugh if anything
This man has a very big 👼 Angel . He was born to over through Putin .
He is in just as much danger outside of Russia as inside…as recent history has showed us.
But seriously did she expect the FSB agent to give her an on camera interview? That would be suicide for himself.
All you can expect in such case is to see the reaction on his face when you ask the question, that could be worth a hundred of interviews.
Perhaps for the dudes confessing now and fleeing would be the only way for them to not get disappeared.
“It is terrifying” brought chills down my spine
Brought to you by Trump’s best friend. He hates the media too. For the same reasons
This is why Putin attacks the media so much online with his troll army they expose him
@Shiva Namagiri 👈🏾🇷🇺🤖
Goh yes
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8
@Xx Ххх not at all.
@D RiteMoLawzBks lol yes. Exactly my thoughts on that account! 👏👏🤣
@Shiva Namagiri A rigged election may look that way, But really Russians have never known real freedom. It’s the same with China, They’ve always had strongmen (dictators/autocrats) and have been so conditioned not to stand up against tyranny.
Brave man.We should all support him.
Amazing reporting! Brave reporter and support team.
I am glad he is alive. Personally, I wouldn’t go back to Russia! I think his gift of life is of greater benefit to himself, his family, and for the rest of the world willing to listen. Not to many people have been effective from the grave.
The CNN reporter was brave! I can only imagine what leaving Russia was like after knocking on that man’s door.
the fact that this story is getting so much international recognition is making me very very happy
We have to overtake the Putin’s bloody regime here in Russia by ourselves. Nevertheless the support of the whole democratic World is helpfull too, dear Liza.
I have friends in Russia. They are scared of Putin. The USA is back on January 20th. We will do everything to protect our Democracy so we can help the citizens of Russia. I so wish we had a President like Ronald Reagan these past 4 years.
Foh yes

@White Looking forward to the day that you take Russia back from the corrupt kleptocrats.
Американцы за дверью: это вы отравили Навального? Жизнь и спец. академия к такому не готовили
Это зашквар !!!
фсбэшники живут как бомжи что ли?
