Russia's spymaster said Tuesday that opposition leader Alexei Navalny died of natural causes, a statement that appeared to reflect the Kremlin's efforts to assuage international outrage over the death of President Vladimir Putin's fiercest foe.

Sergei Naryshkin, the director of the Foreign Intelligence Service, the top spy agency known under its Russian acronym SVR, made the statement in an interview broadcast by Russian state television. He didn't name the cause of Navalny's death in a remote Arctic penal colony or give any other details.

“Sooner or later life ends and people die,” he said. “Navalny has died of natural causes.”

Nothing to see here folks, move along.

[EvilCapitalist]

Uh-huh. /sarc

[PGR88]

Ukraine’s “spymaster” said the same thing.

[ConservativeMind]

Both sides vaxxed him!

[Paladin2]

Poisoning by organic compounds?

[TonyinLA]

Yup, it seems the relevant parties are all in agreement. It’s only the western media and politicians who parrot, “without evidence” [a phrase often used by MSM against conservatives they don’t like], the claim Navalny died by foul means.

[ConjunctionJunction]

We investigated ourselves and found ourselves innocent of any wrongdoing!

Sounds like America has killed more dissidents than Russia?

[EEGator]

Did anyone ask Seth Rich what he thought?

[thegagline]

Many Russian dissidents die from the natural cause called “gravity.”

The other “natural” cause of death is by Polonium 210 which has the added benefit of being gluten free, carbon neutral, and vegan.

Well then, case closed.

So did the Ukrainian spy chief, Budanov. So you’re right, nothing to see here but a dead guy with blood clots.

Opponents of Putin are often victims of weak window panes, cars that explode, and random chemical poisoning

[JonPreston]

Who?

[Worldtraveler once upon a time]

Russia's spymaster, Ukraine's spymaster, China's spymaster, our spymaster ( can't forget what's his name ), Britain's spymaster, Germany's spymaster, France's spymaster, India's spymaster, Poland's spymaster and so on.

So many variations on a theme.

“Sooner or later life ends and people die,” he said. “Loretta Fuddy has died of natural causes. It was plane to see.”

[kiryandil]

It’s plane to see what you did there...

[Worldtraveler once upon a time]

Could have been a Ron Brown twist, as a ‘Dubrovnik’ chaser. :)

[kiryandil]

Ron Brown did not shoot himself in the head...   

[curious7]

What a coincidence! There are some parts of demo-commie-run cities where murder is listed as death by natural causes!
