Germany has evidence that Alexei Navalny was poisoned with the nerve agent Novichok. The results of the tests were announced by a spokesman for the German government, which strongly condemned the poisoning of the Kremlin’s main opponent, currently in a coma, hospitalized in Berlin’s Charite hospital.
Novichok was discussed in 2018 when ex-spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia were found unconscious on a bank in the British city of Salisbury, poisoned with the nerve agent, and recovered only after a long hospitalization. On that occasion it was London who accused Moscow, which he denied. “Novichok” in Russian means novice, beginner and is the name of one of the last generations of nerve agents developed in the Soviet Union.
Berlin asks Russia to explain its position in the Navalny case, it will inform the Russian ambassador, the EU and NATO of the clinical findings made on the Russian activist.
