Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that the fact that all those who accompanied Alexei Navalny on his trip before his emergency hospitalization in Omsk are beginning to move to Germany is suggestive. His words are reported by RIA Novosti.
Earlier, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that Russia does not like it when they try to dictate from outside how to investigate the situation with Navalny.
On September 11, Interior Ministry investigators began to search for Alexei Navalny's companion, who escaped from Russia, Marina Pevchikh, who permanently resides in the UK. According to the investigation, on August 20, Pevchikh, who was with Navalny during his stay in the Tomsk region, avoided giving explanations to the Russian law enforcement agencies, and on August 22 flew to Germany, in connection with which the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs was unable to interview her. Its location is currently being established.
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. 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.
