5 European nations say Russian opposition leader Navalny was poisoned and blame the Kremlin

Five European countries say tests confirm Alexei Navalny was poisoned with a lethal toxin, and they blame the Russian state. On Saturday, the U.K., France, Germany, Sweden, and the Netherlands said labs analyzed samples from Navalny and found epibatidine. They described it as a toxin found in poison dart frogs in South America. Navalny died two years ago. The five countries say the evidence points to Russia. They say only the Russian state has the means and motive to carry out the attack. They also say Russia shows disregard for international law.
