Seeing as Navalny is Putin's most vocal critic, a lot of people in the West think it's possible that Putin was behind his murder plot as well. When Navalny survived being poisoned "unexpectedly", and was tossed in prison for 2-1/2 years under Putin's orders, it was just the icing on the cake.
According to detailed articles published in every major news outlet in the world,, millions of Russian's (if not tens of millions) also believe that Putin was behind this. Maybe they're all as biased and confused as we are in the West??? Or. maybe Putin is really a murderer and needs to be removed from office. Only the people of Russia know.
Before suggesting that others are being naïve, you really should take a step back and look at life through a larger set of lenses. Listen to what your own Russian people are saying right now....not Putin and his oligarchs, but "The People".
