The respondents name three main versions of what happened. Most often (30%) people talk about staged poisoning. Another 19% consider what happened as a provocation of the Western special services. And 15% see this as an attempt by the authorities to eliminate a political opponent. At the same time, those who closely follow the case consider the poisoning of Navalny by the authorities to be the main version.
Opinions about what happened also strongly depend on the age of the respondents, the channel of obtaining information and the attitude towards the authorities. Thus, representatives of the older generation who receive news on TV and trust the television news, as well as supporters of the authorities, generally consider the incident to be a staging and provocation of the West. Young people, active Internet users and critics of the authorities are much more likely to blame the Russian authorities for the poisoning.

Russia should send the evidence in Navalny’s criminal cases to Washington and Brussels, in order to show them – realistic evidence and what is expected in return,, before you sanction, slander, and threaten us. Russia always asks for some real evidence, as with the Skripol poisoning case, the Navalny poisoning case, the MH 17 Ukie shootdown case, as in all the other phoney allegations, but never receives any.
When did America become Russia’s appeal vehicle?
Wikipedia is free and if one reads the effects section you can see that no Novichok was used as its 8x worse than VX. So a massive faise report program has been going on. One person in an accident was unable to walk but had lasting damage like weak lungs arms weak, kidney trouble. Its Free to read. British PM called it a catostrophiclly damaging nerve agent. Full recovery in 2 weeks is hardly possible for such a strong nerve agent
Wikipedia is open source. Anyone can post anything on it, and it can remove anything, without recourse.

Love the picture.
Like Putin said, if Russians had tried to kill Navalny, they’d have finished the job.
And not only that why would Putin need to poison him? The man would simply disappear like Skirpal! All lies!
Russians should exchange that bastard Navalny for Julian Assange! That bastard face 8 more years in penal colony anyway for additional crimes he committed!
