The US avoids speculating about possible culprits in the murder of Daria Dugina

Aug. 22 () –

The Government of the United States has avoided this Monday entering into speculation about possible perpetrators of the murder of journalist Daria Dugina, daughter of an ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, and has limited itself to emphasizing that it condemns attacks against civilians “anywhere “.

Russian authorities have blamed Ukrainian intelligence for the bomb that killed Dugina, daughter of Alexander Dugin, on Saturday. “All I can say is that Ukraine has denied any involvement,” State Department spokesman Ned Price told a news conference.

Washington for now prefers not to make further assessments and Price has pointed out that, “without a doubt”, Moscow will investigate what happened. “There is no doubt that the Russians will come to some conclusion,” added the diplomatic spokesman.

Dugina died after the explosion of a device placed under his vehicle, in a crime that Putin himself described on Monday as “appalling.” According to Moscow, the perpetrator was Natalia Vovk, a Ukrainian citizen who would have fled to Estonia after the crime.
