President Donald Trump on Friday declined to condemn Russia over the poisoning of opposition leader Alexey Navalny, even though leaders from around the world, as well as other Trump administration officials, have pinned the blame on the country.
At a press briefing on Friday, Trump was asked what his message to Russia was about Navalny’s poisoning, after the German government said a chemical agent known to be utilized by the Kremlin was used against Navalny.
