Russia accuses poisoned opposition leader of working with CIA

Russia accuses opposition leader Alexei Navalny of working for the CIA and making “groundless and unacceptable statements” after he claimed President Vladimir Putin had orchestrated his poisoning.

“We believe that such charges against the Russian president are absolutely groundless and unacceptable,” Putin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov says. He also claims that the Central Intelligence Agency was “currently working” with Navalny.
