Death of Navalny: Western pressures increase against Moscow. Western chancelleries are summoning Russian ambassadors in turn and considering new sanctions.
The rhetoric even hardened in Brussels where the head of European diplomacy Josep Borrell warned that Vladimir Putin will have to “be held accountable” for Navalny's death. Finally, in Washington, American President Joe Biden said he was considering new. sanctions against Russia, which would be added to a battery of sanctions already applied against Moscow since Russia's invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022.
