Kremlin says Germany didn’t inform Moscow of data showing opposition figure Navalny was poisoned with Novichok-like nerve agent | |
(32 minutes later) | |
Moscow didn’t receive any new data on the poisoning of Alexey Navalny from Berlin. That's according to Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov after German authorities announced that tests found a Novichok-like nerve agent in his system. | |
“No, we didn’t receive this information,” Peskov responded when addressed on the issue. The opposition figure was evacuated to Berlin, at his family's request, a week and a half ago. | |
The Foreign Ministry also said it was still waiting for Germany to reply to an official inquest from the office of Russia’s Prosecutor General regarding Navalny’s condition. | |
On Wednesday afternoon, Berlin claimed that hospital tests showed "beyond doubt" that Navalny had been affected by a Novichok class chemical agent. The substance is similar to the one allegedly used against Russian-born British intelligence agent Sergei Skripal, and his daughter, in Salisbury, back in 2018. | |
The Moscow protest leader and anti-corruption campaigner was transferred to a German hospital after falling ill on a flight from the Siberian city of Tomsk on August 20. He reportedly remains in an induced coma. | |
