Wikileaks Reveals Alexei Navalny’s US Funding as Washington Exploits His Death

- Alexei Navalny’s political activities were funded by the US government through the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) as part of an effort to repeat US-backed 2014 Ukraine regime change inside Russia itself; - The Western media had previously (and reluctantly) revealed Navalny as far-right, racist, and xenophobic despite efforts to pass him off as a progressive pro-democracy activist; - US government-funded polling agencies consistently found Alexei Navalny extremely unpopular in Russia with single digit approval ratings; - After an alleged 2020 “Novichok“ poisoning, Navalny’s popularity “surged“ to 20% as the Western media accused Moscow of being behind the incident; - The US is now exploiting the death of Navalny to advance its anti-Russia policy while the Western media collective omits all relevant context regarding Navalny’s background and US funding; References: NYT - Navalny’s Death Raises Tensions Between U.S. and Russia (February 16, 2024): CNN - Putin saw an existential threat in Navalny, the opposition leader whose name he dared not mention (February 16, 2024): Al Jazeera - Alexey Navalny: An archenemy Putin wouldn’t name and Kremlin couldn’t scare (February 16, 2024): Reuters - Putin critic Navalny’s approval rating surges in wake of poisoning (October 2020): The New Atlas - CNN Bellingcat’s Latest Russian Novichok Lies | 12/16/2020 Review (December 2020): NED - RUSSIA: POLLING FOR DEMOCRACY, THE YURI LEVADA ANALYTICAL CENTER (September 2011): The Guardian - Alexei Navalny obituary (February 16, 2024): Wikileaks - A GUIDE TO RUSSIAN POLITICAL YOUTH GROUPS: PART 1 OF 2 (November 2006): Wikileaks - RUSSIAN YOUTH POLITICS, OR LACK THEREOF: PART 2 OF 2 (November 2006): The Guardian - US campaign behind the turmoil in Kiev (2004): The Atlantic Council - Russia’s democracy movement will survive the death of Navalny (February 16, 2024): RFE/RL - Navalny’s Failure To Renounce His Nationalist Past May Be Straining His Support (February 2021): Euronews - Racist or revolutionary: The complex legacy of Alexei Navalny (July 2023): Where to Find My Work: Website: Telegram: Twitter: Odysee (YouTube alternative): @LandDestroyer:8 Rumble (YouTube alternative): Weibo: ไบรอัน แฟนคลับ (Facebook): Line Group: Gab: VK (Facebook alternative): How to Support my Work (and thank you!): Buy Me A Coffee: Patreon: PromptPay: 0851547235 Cryptocurrency Donations: Ethereum (ETH): 0xee6ed93c3adc474450011e9af22939a0b9b312c7 BitCoin (BTC): 1AfGnbmHxA6cy9YKUSxysXvpJPyecpBKrr Monero (XMR): 845TCXx3pchSBXuDL7FHG679gbWD2wkHS6MJxuq7jFVsVFj7T6xsry747uhhGZUdkaRXbbrMfo5c8RnGfzGZ13KxQUdHVLR
