Russian President Vladimir Putin has broken his silence on opposition leader Alexei Navalny's poisoning while denying Kremlin's involvement in the incident. "If there was such a desire, it would have been done," Putin said. Navalny, a staunch critic of Putin, fell sick on August 20 this year during a domestic flight in Russia and later fell into a coma. It was later revealed that he was poisoned.
