The German government concluded that Russian opposition leader Alexey Navalny was poisoned with a Novichok nerve agent

In this Sept. 29, 2019, file photo, Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny speaks during a rally in Moscow.The top United Nations human rights official called on Russia on Tuesday to conduct, or co-operate with, a full independent investigation into Germany’s findings that opposition leader Alexey Navalny was poisoned with a Novichok nerve agent.

“It is incumbent on the Russian authorities to fully investigate who was responsible for this crime – a very serious crime that was committed on Russian soil.” The number of cases of poisoning, or other forms of targeted assassination, of current or former Russian citizens, either within Russia itself or on foreign soil, over the past two decades is profoundly disturbing,” Bachelet said.

Russia is as anxious to find out who does this, as those who do it are anxious to cover their tracks. Yes they did not kill those 3, but just poisoned them enough so Russia is to blame. If Russian state wanted them dead by poison, they would be. It is that simple.

That’s like asking the mouse to find the cheese thief.

So let me get this right... the UN wants Russia to investigate Russia poisoning Navalny? Let's all save everyone some time and money. Russia will find Russia innocent!

Absurd for UN to ask Russia for independent investigation on Navalny poisoning case which they caused and sanctioned. The criminal is asked to investigate he's own criminality.

Rare spat between Serbia and Russia after U.S.-brokered dealThe row was sparked by a social media post from the Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman apparently ridiculing Serbia’s president Unless there is more to it, Serbia just put an American snake into their shirt. What America and her puppets/vassals did (was illegal) during break up of Yugoslavia (caused/financed by ususal suspect/US) is simply unforgetable/unforgivable. Thus it must be more to it.

Navalny out of coma, responsive as Putin critic’s health improves after poisoningIn recent days, German leader Angela Merkel has put the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline on the table as Germany and its allies mull a response to the poisoning 'A media which is up in arms about the very dubious attack on Navalny, has no emotion for state torture victim Assange other than contempt.' I'll bet Trump won't even acknowledge this. Oh Boy they better put an army in front of his room....
