An OPCW examination confirmed that Navalny was poisoned with a prohibited chemical.

The Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons has confirmed data from Germany that Alexei Navalny was poisoned with a banned cholinesterase inhibitor, Interfax writes on Tuesday, October 6.

It should be noted that the OPCW delivered the mission report to Germany yesterday to provide technical support to Navalny.

The results of the OPCW inspections showed the presence of cholinesterase inhibitory biomarkers in Navalny’s urine and blood tests, which “have structural characteristics similar to the poisonous substances added to the Chemical Weapons Convention Chemicals Annex in November 2019 “. “At the same time, this anticholinesterase agent is not included in the chemical application,” said the OPCW.

“A technical analysis by the OPCW has confirmed that traces of the nerve agent Novichok have been found in the biological materials at Navalny,” the British permanent mission to the OPCW said in a statement.

They clarified that the results of the OPCW analysis confirm data previously reported by laboratories in Germany, Sweden and France.

“The substance Novichok was used to poison Navalny. Russia must explain what happened,” the message says.

The German government has already said that Russia should explain the situation with Navalny.

The Kremlin, however, said it has no information yet on the OPCW report.

Recall that Navalny was hospitalized unconscious from a plane in Russia on August 20. He was later transferred to Berlin, where it was reported that he had been poisoned with a Novichok group substance.

Navalny was discharged from the Charite clinic on September 23. He was treated in Charité for 32 days, of which 24 days in intensive care.
