Russian media keep doubling down on the “the collective West is exploiting Navalny poisoning” narrative, which can take different forms.
They include proposing different medical diagnoses and accusations that the topic is overhyped internationally, which was common at the onset of this tragic event.
And go all the way to direct accusations in assassination attempt of Western countries now that no one can deny Novichok usage.
The best encapsulation of this tactic is a modern saying that goes: “It is not true until Russia denies it”.
