The Kremlin issued a response to the Washington Post piece attributed to Yulia Navalnaya, as conveyed by the press secretary to President Dmitry Peskov during a briefing. The line of inquiry centered on Navalnaya’s published text and the reaction it drew from Moscow. In the briefing, Peskov noted that President Vladimir Putin had not read the material in question, while offering his own assessment of the piece. He described the article as an example of journalism that can still deliver low-quality content even when it comes from a respected newspaper. This framing underscored Moscow’s stance on the publicly available account and its reliability from the Kremlin’s perspective. [Source attributions: Washington Post publication of Navalnaya text]
