President Joe Biden said on Friday that the apparent death of Russian anti-corruption activist Alexei Navalny brings new urgency to the need for Congress to approve tens of billions of dollars for Ukraine to stave off Moscow's invasion. Speaking at the White House, Biden said that no matter the cause, he holds Russian President Vladimir Putin responsible for Navalny's death.

Biden said the US had not confirmed Navalny's death in a Russian prison above the Arctic Circle, but that he had no reason to doubt
