Chancellor Sergei Lavrov said Navalny may have been poisoned by Novichok on the plane in which he was evacuated from Omsk to Berlin.
This statement made him the hero of a cartoon published by the famous artist Sergei Elkin.
In a comment to reporters, Lavrov said it is not known who, other than doctors, were on board the plane with which Navalny went to the German clinic.
“We have every reason to believe that everything with him [Навальным] happened in terms of the penetration of chemical warfare agents into his body, it could have happened in Germany or on a plane where he was loaded and taken to [берлинскую] Charite clinic “, – suggested the minister.
In this cartoon, the artist Elkin described how the rhetoric of the Russian authorities about the poisoning of an opponent changed and how dissonant the Russian diplomatic chief’s statement sounded.
As reported by “Apostrophe”, during Russian President Vladimir Putin’s annual address to the participants of the Valdai discussion forum, which this time took place via video link, the Russian leader commented on the poisoning of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny, avoiding calling him by name.
