00:00Five European countries issued a joint statement saying Alexei Navalny was most likely poisoned
00:04by a toxin found in South America, a South American frog.
00:08How come the United States didn't join the statement?
00:11Any response to it?
00:12With regards to your question about the frog toxin, no, it's a very serious thing.
00:17Look, those countries came to that conclusion, they coordinated that.
00:21We chose, doesn't mean we disagree with the outcome, we just, it wasn't, you know, our
00:24endeavor.
00:25Sometimes countries go out and do their thing based on the intelligence they've gathered.
00:29We obviously are aware of the report, it's a troubling report.
00:32We're aware of that case of Mr. Navalny and certainly it's, you know, we don't have any
00:40reason to question it or we're not disputing or getting into a fight with these countries
00:43over it.
00:44But it was their report and they put that out there.
