Russian police announced on Friday that they would ask Germany to question Russian opponent Alexei Navalny, a victim of poisoning according to Berlin, a lead so far vehemently rejected by Moscow.
The transport department of the Russian Interior Ministry, in charge of "preliminary" verifications concerning "the hospitalization of Navalny", will ask that "Russian investigators can attend the activities of the German investigators" with the Russian opponent and him "ask additional questions," he said in a statement.
The latter has gradually emerged since Monday from the artificial coma in which he was, while Germany called on Russia to "resolve" the case quickly.
