Pretty sure this will be a significant event in the relations between Russia and NATO nations.
Alexei Navalny died today, February 16, 2024.
Within a few hours, Michael McFaul, a former U.S. Ambassador to Russia, made a statement on MSNBC, stating the Navalny, absolutely, was murdered by Vladimir Putin. (No supporting evidence offered, but McFaul compared him to Nelson Mandela.)The prison service in Russia's Yamalo-Nenets district where Navalny was being held said he had "felt unwell" after a walk on Friday.
He had "almost immediately lost consciousness", it said in a statement, adding that an emergency medical team had immediately been called and tried to resuscitate him but without success.
"The emergency doctors declared the prisoner dead. Cause of death is being established."

As it just so happened (my, what a coincidence!) Yulia Navalnaya, his wife, was at the Munich Security Conference, and addressed them (in Russian) and was greeted with a standing ovation. According to Wikipedia she:
That was written in reference to the 2020 poisoning of Navalny. It did not really happen, yet, but seems to be a forgone conclusion now and I have to wonder: will she be spending her time in the West, making media appearance on CNN and MSNBC (and probably FOX too) or will she be going back to Russia to "start a grass roots movement" to confront Putin. (My guess is the West). How many Russians will blame Putin for Navalny's death.Navalnaya is now beginning to play an independent political role and may become the "Russian Tsikhanouskaya" — the leader of the entire opposition.
There is no doubt on my mind that the same media authorities that talked non-stop about information that came from the hoaxed Steele dossier ("Russiagate") will be hyping up the death of Navalny and urging you to send you tax dollars to Ukraine.
