Pre-emptive and hopefully unnecessary: shall we agree on no rehashing of jokes about falling out of windows or shooting himself in the head? Plenty to discuss about the man himself and his death, I assume.
For example, what I’m wondering is: why now? Or more specifically: why didn’t this happen earlier, and what changed for that reason to no longer hold?
This is pure speculation from me but
I’d say because enough time has passed to make it relatively irrelevant. The war and Russia in general are back to being minor news, so even though a lot of news networks will probably mention his death, I doubt they’ll go very in depth about it.
Why not later?
Why take the risk? Only a matter of time until enough of his allies gathered up and create turmoil to pressure his release. Or for some foreign influence to get involved when they realize his worth in taking on the Russian regime.
Edit:
Other option is that they just planned to let him rot and didn’t care too much about allies. Probably got mistreated and suffered from exhaustion, dehydration and malnourishment. Only a matter of time until the body gives up

Oh god, yes please
Between poisonings & beatings & withholding of medical care & general conditions in Russian penal colonies, it is possible his body just gave up.
Or there’s stuff afoot under the surface which was making Putin too nervy to leave Navalny alive.

Well, it’s a pretty big deal in the UK…
