Navalny's Role in Prisoner Swap Talks Before His Death

Western officials confirm preliminary discussions about a potential prisoner exchange involving Alexei Navalny, but no formal offer was made to Russia. Claims of negotiations being in final stages before Navalny's death have been cast into doubt, with the U.S. continuing efforts to secure the release of two wrongfully detained Americans in Russia. Navalny, a vocal critic of the Kremlin, died in a Russian prison, with the U.S. and other Western nations holding Moscow responsible for his demise.
