Retired Army Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman argued that former President Trumpās recent comments about NATO are likely a ācontributing factorā in the death of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny.
āDonald Trump invited Vladimir Putin to attack NATO. I would say that that probably was a contributing factor in the calculus around the assassination of Navalny,ā Vindman told MSNBCās Michael Steele Friday.
Vindmanās comments come just a week after Navalny died in prison. The Biden administration has blamed Russiaās government for the death, but Russia has said he died of natural causes.
I wish you good luck in learning what ācontributingā means!
I wish you good luck in coming up with any reasonable explanation as to how this contributes in any significant way.
