An exclusive investigation by the German newspaper "Bild" today revealed exciting details about the poisoning case of the prominent Russian dissident Alexei Navalny, who is lying in a hospital in Berlin after he was transferred to him from a Russian hospital in Siberia.

On the other hand, the Russian Foreign Ministry accused the Berlin authorities of deception, saying that they were waiting for them to present the results of the tests that prove Navalny's poisoning with the nerve gas Novichok.

The German newspaper reported that the German government revealed the source of the nerve gas that was poisoned by Navalny, 44, where it came from and who was behind it.

The newspaper added that the analyzes conducted in the secret laboratory of the German army accurately identified the source of the substance with which the prominent opponent of Russian President Vladimir Putin was poisoned, the party that obtained "Novichuk", and the person responsible for poisoning the prominent leader of the Russian opposition.

The German newspaper asked, "Why does the German government remain silent even though it knows precisely who is Navalny's poison?"

Berlin warns


and Germany issued an ultimatum on Sunday to Moscow to impose sanctions if the latter in the coming days did not provide clarifications on the issue of Navalny's poisoning.

A spokesman for Chancellor Angela Merkel said yesterday that she would not rule out imposing sanctions on the joint Nord Stream 2 natural gas pipeline between Berlin and Moscow in response to the poisoning incident.

In light of Moscow's continued denial of Navalny's poisoning, the Russian Foreign Ministry said today that it has summoned the German ambassador to Moscow, "Geza Andreas von Ger", against the backdrop of the Berlin declaration of evidence of the Moscow authorities ’involvement in poisoning Russian dissident Alexei Navalny.

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova added that her country is waiting for all papers to be opened, and for the Germans to present to the Russian side the results of the tests carried out by the German army, and other data that prove - according to Berlin - Navalny was poisoned with the nerve gas "Novichok".

The spokeswoman accused Berlin of practicing deception and causing a dirty political uproar - according to her expression - regarding Navalny's situation, and of delaying the provision of the data that Moscow had officially requested from the German side.

A precedent in Britain


and "Novichok" is the same substance that Britain said was used to poison the former Russian agent Sergey Skripal and his daughter in an attack in the British city of Salisbury in 2018, and the Soviet Union developed this poisonous substance during the Cold War for military purposes.

The prominent Russian dissident fell ill after boarding a plane in the Siberian region of southern Russia last month, when close to him indicated that they suspected that he had consumed a cup of tea containing a toxic substance at the airport, and he underwent treatment initially in a hospital in Siberia, where doctors said that they had not found any materials. Toxic in blood, before he was transferred to Berlin on August 22.

The exit of Alexei Navalny from his coma in Germany was damaging to Soviet industry, as the "Novichuk" that targeted him was considered the most dangerous poison in human history.

Yesterday, Berlin's Charité Hospital said that the Russian dissident had woken up from a medical coma and was responding to words.

The hospital added that Navalny's condition has improved, and his ventilators are currently being disconnected.

UN call


In a related context, the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, Michelle Bachelet, called on Russia today to conduct a comprehensive, independent investigation into Germany's conclusion that Navalny was poisoned with Novichok nerve gas, or to show cooperation in the matter.

"It is not prudent to simply deny that he was poisoned in this way, and to deny the need for a comprehensive, independent, impartial and transparent investigation into the assassination attempt," the UN official added in a statement.

"The number of poisoning cases or other targeted assassinations of current or former Russian citizens - whether inside Russia or on foreign soil over the past two decades - is a matter of great concern," Bachelet said.
