Opponents of Putin increasingly fear the long arm of Moscow’s security services, including in countries they once thought were safe. The Kremlin, which routinely denies going after its opponents abroad, has been blamed for decades for such attacks. Britain was the site of other poisonings blamed on Russian security services under Putin. She believes Russian security services tried to “silence” her because of her pro-democracy work. In the decades Putin has held power, the Kremlin has denied multiple times that it is targeting its enemies at home and abroad.
