Trump remains largely silent on reported poisoning of Russian dissident

as Europe, US lawmakers offer support

The Trump administration has not made any substantial statement on the suspected poisoning of Russian opposition leader, Alexey Navalny, in sharp contrast to European reaction, despite President Donald Trump saying Thursday his Secretary of State was looking into it.

"We're looking at it and Mike's going to be reporting to me soon," Trump said yesterday at the White House, referring to Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who was in the room with him.

Trump also said that the US has not determined if Navalny was poisoned or not.

"We haven't seen it yet," Trump said when asked if the US government had determined Navalny, who was hospitalized Thursday, had been poisoned.
