The head of the diplomacy of the European Union Josep Borrell called, this Monday evening, Moscow for an "independent and transparent investigation into the poisoning" of the Russian opponent Alexeï Navalny, after the discovery of elements in this direction by the Berlin hospital where he is being treated. "It is imperative that the Russian authorities immediately launch an independent and transparent investigation into the poisoning of Mr. Navalny," Borrell said in a statement.
Germany concluded Monday that Alexei Navalny was poisoned and urged Russia to bring the perpetrators to trial. On the other hand, the Russian doctors, having treated the opponent during his hospitalization in Siberia, indicated the same day that they had not found during their tests cholinesterase inhibitors in the body of the opponent, a substance put in cause by the Germans in its suspected poisoning.
"The European Union strongly condemns what appears to be an assault on the life of Mr. Navalny," Jsep Borrell said in a statement. He added: “The Russian people and the international community are demanding that light be shed on the poisoning of Mr. Navalny. Those responsible must be held to account ”.
