Lithuania Weekly: Weekly: Death of Alexei Navalny and undermining trust in NATO

Kremlin-aligned media outlets broadly commented on NATO and its possible faith. Outlets emphasised the questionable future of the organisation if Trump becomes the President, foreseeing that "it would be over for NATO". Outlets also pictured Ukraine's victory as impossible and ensured that "US and Europe have lost the war to Russia in Ukraine, and Crimea and Donbas will remain Russian territories". Outlets also speculated the reasons behind the death of “the US-funded and Western-praised” Alexei Navalny, seeking conspiracy theories of whom to blame and calling him “a Western puppet”.
