Yes, an obviously absurd story.
If the Russian state poisoned him, he wouldn't have been allowed to fly to Germany.
I already said why but I'll make an exception for you in that Kremlin doctors can hardly come up with the truth, if they want their careers and possibly health to remain unimpaired.
This way the word is out and the Kremlin can go into its own perpetual denial as it is prone to do, conveniently blaming the Western propaganda to the point of (as we now get to hear) accusing the Berlin doctors of having poisoned Navalny themselves.
Well, I have no tolerance for Moscow shills and when they lie as continuously as you have been doing ever since you joined, contempt is the word.
Let's cut to the chase.
Why would Russia voluntarily open itself up to being put in this position when it could have kept him in Russia?
The Kremlin didn't count on Navalny surviving, albeit in a coma.
They planned on Navalny being dead and buried on Russian soil with the Omsk doctors making up some BS cause of death.
When Germany demanded to have Navalny flown to Berlin, Moscow could hardly say no.
After all, Putin is still dependent on Merkel supporting Nord Stream-2.
Nonsense.
Russia could have found all sorts of reasons to keep him - medical reasons, political ones, made up criminal charges.
Certainly Moscow could have, but the onus would remain on the Kremlin.
Putin would be held accountable for Navalny no matter his location.
You just haven't understood.Let's cut to the chase.

You still haven't explained.
I see another angle.The Kremlin didn't count on Navalny surviving, albeit in a coma.

Make a hit on someone as a warning to everybody else, then deny you were behind it while being sure of having delivered the message of "none of you is safe"
Old KGB tactic and Vlad is one of that lot.
He'd hardly allow the Omsk doctors (IOW his own Russians) to confirm the action or he wouldn't be able to deny.
From Salisbury to London to a park in Berlin, always the same. Demonstrate that you're behind it but pull off the whole thing in a manner that leaves room for deniability.
Yes. Like I posited in #29, I don't think the Kremlin even conceived of a scenario in which Navalny lingered on without dying.
Or Germany demanding that Navalny be air-lifted to a Berlin hospital. Berlin, where another Russian assassination occurred not that long ago.
As with Salisbury and the Skripals, Moscow screwed up their murderous affair with Navalny and there will now be consequences.
Kremlin Says Navalny's Hospitalization Shouldn't Hurt Ties With West
Well Mr. Peskov, when the regime has a long history of assassinating journalists and opposition activists, you can't very well complain the world is drawing a conclusion prematurely.
The West is not portraying Russia (and subsequently ALL its people) as a bunch of criminal thugs, it's more and more seeing the Kremlin Mafia as being that.
Pretty much like not holding Lukashenka TO BE Belarus.
That's not even a subtle distinction but if it goes against own Russian trolling agenda, obtuseness on the matter can safely be seen as being deliberate.
Well, man's gotta do what he's gotta do and Russian man's gotta do what he's paid to do.:lol:You notice he only shows up here when the Kremlin has a huge international PR problem?
Not a peep (Tweet) about the attempted poisoning for being the opposition to Putin, but this situation in Iran?

Once again, they found a deadly battle poison, a tiny dose of which can kill a small town. But again the victim of poisoning survived and no one else was injured anywhere...
Yet here we are again - Navalny survived and nobody else has suffered any ill effects despite not wearing any PPE and despite being in close contact.
The Novichok poison here was mixed in Navalny's tea at the airport. Less than a raindrop. No one else was exposed.
The evidence for that is what ..........?
Nothing.
