The power structures in Moscow, St. Petersburg and other large cities have been put on high alert. Almost the entire staff of the “E” Centers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, departments for combating terrorism and extremism of the regional departments of the FSB, as well as units of the National Guard are at their workplaces. And Navalny himself had long known about the demand of the Federal Penitentiary Service to replace his suspended sentence with a real one. The politician was accused of violating the conditions of the probationary period appointed in the Yves Rocher case.
“They are doing this because for them and for Putin personally, this is such a psychological thing: they tried to kill me – I survived, and now they are offended by me and outraged: “What are you, Alexei, how dare you not die? Since you are not dead, we will threaten to imprison you. said then Navalny was on the air of the Navalny Live YouTube channel.
Recall, The Insider, Belingcat, together with FBK published an investigation in which the names of the FSB officers who took part in the poisoning of Alexei Navalny with a substance that the OPCW recognized as a military toxin were named. Two days later, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov called the investigation into the attempted assassination of Alexei Navalny with the names of current FSB officers “fun reading.” Later, Vladimir Putin de facto validated the results of the investigation by The Insider and Bellingcat when he did not deny that the FSB officers mentioned in the article were near Navalny on those very dates.
Later there were published the confession of Konstantin Kudryavtsev, who spoke with Alexei Navalny (thinking that he was talking to Patrushev’s assistant) and told many details of the assassination attempt. Among other things, he explained that Navalny’s life was saved by the actions of the pilots and atropine administered by the ambulance, and also specified that the poison was applied to his underpants, and the traffic police helped the FSB officers to clean up the traces.
