German Chancellor Angela Merkel secretly visited Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny at the Berlin Charite clinic, where he received treatment after the poisoning, Spiegel reported.
According to the sources of the publication, the visit was carried out in the strictest secrecy.
According to the magazine, this is another sign that the German chancellor is taking Navalny’s case seriously and does not intend to ignore it.
In addition, it is noted that with such a gesture, Merkel emphasized «German government solidarity with Navalny “.
On August 20, Alexei Navalny was hospitalized from the plane, which landed urgently in Omsk.
On August 22, the opponent was transferred to Germany for treatment.
German military toxicologists have established that Navalny was poisoned with a substance from the Novichok group.
Several weeks after the poisoning, Navalny’s condition improved and he was disconnected from the ventilator.
On September 23, he was discharged from the German Charite clinic. Doctors believe Navalny has a chance to make a full recovery from the poisoning.
