DENIS BALIBOUSE
- Joe Biden had threatened Russia with severe consequences if dissident Alexey Navalny died.

When President Joe Biden addressed the sudden death of Russian dissident Alexey Navalny last week, he had no doubt where the blame lay.
"What has happened to Navalny is even more proof of Putin's brutality. No one should be fooled," Biden told reporters Friday.
