It is announced that A. Navalnas has had his artificial lung ventilator disconnected and is already breathing.
“Responds to verbal stimuli,” the Charite clinic said in a statement, which also said Navaln, 44, had “improved.”
“The patient was able to complete the coma from the medication. The patient is gradually disconnected from mechanical ventilation. Respond to verbal stimuli. The long-term consequences of severe poisoning cannot yet be assessed, “the report said.
Last week it was announced that tests on skin, blood and urine samples of A. Navaln were performed at the request of the Charite Clinic. Laboratory personnel found traces of a toxic substance belonging to the Novičiok group in all the samples.
According to the German magazine Der Spiegel, this information was released during a closed-door meeting with members of the Bundestag (German parliament), Secretary of State for Defense Gerd Hoofe.
According to Der Spiegel, the amount of toxic substance in A. Navaln’s skin, blood and urine samples was minimal, but the results of his tests are reliable.
According to the magazine, traces of the toxic substance were also found in a bottle that Navaln carried with him and that his relatives passed on to doctors in Berlin. It is believed that the opponent drank from the bottle after poisoning, leaving toxic substances in him.
The Kremlin on Monday strongly condemned “attempts to accuse the Russian state of poisoning opposition politician Alexei Navaln,” calling them “absurd.”
“Attempts to link Russia in any way with what happened are unacceptable to us, they are absurd,” President Vladimir Putin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters.
Navalno’s comrades say that the use of Novičiok, a nerve-paralyzing substance, suggests that only the Russian state may be responsible, but the Kremlin vehemently denies any link to the incident.
Russian officials say, among other things, that Germany has yet to share any findings with Russia.
“We hope that information will be provided from Germany in the next few days. We are looking forward to that,” said D. Peskov.
A Russian doctor presented his version of A. Navalno on Monday. According to him, at the beginning of the hospital in Omsk, A. Navalnas was treated for alleged poisoning with the substance “Novičiok”. However, this has not been confirmed by laboratory tests. Dr. Alexander Sabayev told Reuters about this.
According to him, the results obtained showed an altered metabolism of A. Navaln. Therefore, atropine treatment was discontinued. “As a toxicologist, I’m sure it was not Novičiok,” Sabajev insisted.
There is no doubt in the North Atlantic Alliance that Russian opponent Alexei Navaln has been poisoned by nerve paralyzing material from the Novičiok group, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said on Friday.
“Germany has informed the Allies of the results of tests carried out by a special laboratory. They show that Mr. Navaln was undoubtedly poisoned by nerve paralyzing material from the Noviocok group,” the NATO chief told a press conference. He added that “this [cheminio] the use of a weapon is appalling, and all NATO allies have unanimously condemned today’s attack. “
“Any use of chemicals is a lack of respect for human life and an unacceptable violation of international standards,” Stoltenberg said. NATO also called on Moscow to carry out an international investigation into the Navaln poisoning and to disclose the Novicok program to the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW).
“The Russian government must cooperate fully with the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons in conducting an impartial international investigation,” Stoltenberg said after an urgent meeting of the North Atlantic Council.
On August 20, Navaln, 44, felt ill on a plane to return to Moscow from Tomsk in Siberia. The plane landed in Omsk and for two days A. Navaln was treated in a hospital in that city and later transferred to a clinic in Berlin for specialized treatment.
On September 2, Berlin announced that medical tests carried out in a military laboratory had provided “clear evidence” that Navaln had been treated with a neurological paralyzing substance from the Novičiok group.
