Russian opposition leader Alexey Navalny dupes spy into revealing how he was poisoned
A Russian agent sent to tail opposition leader Alexey Navalny has revealed how he was poisoned in August with the lethal nerve agent Novichok planted in his underpants.
The stunning disclosure from an agent who belonged to an elite toxins team in Russia’s FSB security service came in a lengthy phone call following the unmasking of the unit by CNN and the online investigative outfit Bellingcat last week.
In what he was told was a debriefing, Konstantin Kudryavtsev also talked about others involved in the poisoning in the Siberian city of Tomsk, and how he was sent to clean things up.

Never underestimate Russian President Vladimir Putin. Instead of avoiding a thorny question about the poisoning of Russian opposition leader Aleksei Navalny that came up during his annual press conference Thursday, Putin answered it head-on. But, in claiming that new, highly damning evidence of the involvement of his FSB in the poisoning came from American special services, Putin seems to have entered a rabbit hole, because he was forced to admit that the FSB was following Navalny. As Navalny said in a tweet: “Putin admitted everything…It is impossible to deny our solid, concrete evidence.”

Vladimir Putin laughed off reports the Kremlin was involved in poisoning opposition leader Alexei Navalny, saying if he wanted him dead it would have been done .
Speaking via video call during an annual marathon news conference today, the Russian leader accused US intelligence agencies of stoking the claims.
His comments came days after German sources claimed Russia tried to assassinate Navalny with Novichok nerve agent a second time after he survived the first attack in August. If there was such a desire, it would have been done, Putin said of Navalny s alleged poisoning with a chuckle.
