With a presidential election coming up, its a sharp message to all that opposses him "Wherever you are, whatever your situation, I have long arms".


Remember Putin is old school KGB, they were the kings at wetwork, and the kings of contracting killings out.


Putin also doesn't seem to have much patience, there were probably better ways to do this, wait for a year or two until people had forgotten about him, then quietly have him shanked.


A death like this when Navalny has been poisoned before and other enemies of Putin have been poisoned before looks suspicious.


At the end of the day Putin doesn't care, its not like the West can do all that much more sanctions wise.
