“I'll give you two examples.

We asked the Germans who the mysterious man was on board the ambulance plane who accompanied Navalny from Omsk to Berlin.

The answer from the German side was that the ambulance plane was chartered by a private company.

There were no representative offices of the FRG government or other official departments of the FRG on board, ”Shulgin said.

According to him, the answer is very unconvincing, it is hard to believe that the federal government did not have a list of passengers and persons on board this plane.

Shulgin expressed the opinion that "they are obviously hiding something", and not only from Russia, "but also from their own deputies of the Bundestag."

“Another example - we asked the British: what role is played in this whole murky affair by the newly minted subject of the British crown, Mrs. Singers, about whom it is known that she is under the tutelage of the British special services.

The answer from the British side: the role of Mrs. Singers in Navalny's anti-corruption activities has been documented in the media.

We ask one thing, they answer us something else, ”Shulgin said.

He noted that the same applies to all other issues, "be it the chemical formula of a substance that was allegedly found in Navalny's body" or "a famous bottle with fingerprints or traces of a chemical."

“This is the picture, on the basis of which we say that our Western partners have given us empty, meaningless answers,” he said.

Earlier, the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova called the answers of Western countries on the situation with Navalny empty.

On October 8, the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs published a counter-demarche sent to the OPCW in response to the attack on Moscow by 45 states in connection with the situation around Alexei Navalny.
