The Prosecutor General's Office of Berlin will disclose to Russia information about the state of health of Alexei Navalny only with his consent. These conditions are stated in the agency's Twitter post.
The German Prosecutor General's Office confirmed that it had received a request from the Legal Department of the Berlin Senate to provide legal assistance at the Russian request. The department did not name other conditions for the provision of assistance, except for the consent of the Russian, and indicated that “other information” on the issue is not yet available.
On September 10, the Permanent Mission of Russia to the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) denied Germany's statement on the transfer of materials on Navalny to this organization. It is noted that nothing came from the German side either on September 9 or 10.
Alexei Navalny became ill on the morning of August 20 during a flight from Tomsk to Moscow, the plane urgently landed in Omsk. On August 22, the oppositionist was taken to a Berlin clinic. The German authorities announced the poisoning of a Russian citizen with the poison of the Novichok group. Russia noted that it had not received any information about the state of the Russian from German specialists, and offered to start a joint investigation.
Russian doctors claim that the tests did not show the presence of any poisons in Navalny's body. The head physician of the Omsk ambulance hospital No. 1, Alexander Murakhovsky, claimed that the patient had a carbohydrate balance disorder.
