«Alexei was poisoned»

2025.09.17

Laboratories in two countries confirmed that Alexei Navalny* was poisoned in the colony, Yulia Navalnaya* demanded the publication of the research results, instead of hiding behind «political considerations»

Yulia Navalnaya first reported that in February 2024, the politician's relatives and associates managed to obtain, smuggle abroad, and transfer Alexei's biological materials to a laboratory in one of the Western countries. «A few months ago, I learned that the results were obtained, and already two laboratories in two countries independently concluded that Alexei was poisoned», — Navalnaya said, emphasizing that due to «political considerations» the research results have not yet been published.

«I demand that the laboratories that conducted the research publish the results. Stop playing games with Putin for some higher considerations. You will not be able to appease him. As long as you remain silent, he does not stop. Perhaps right now someone else is dying from the poison that Putin ordered to be used. Not only in Russia — but all over the world, we have already seen such examples», — stated the wife of the murdered politician.

In her address, Navalnaya also shared details of the last days of Alexei Navalny's life. According to her, the FBK** has testimonies from five employees of the IK-3 «Kharp» colony, where her husband died in February 2024.

According to these testimonies, before his death, Navalny experienced severe pain, convulsions, and vomiting, but help was not provided in time. Despite the fact that the entire colony is equipped with dozens of surveillance cameras, video recordings of the politician's last day of life have not been preserved.

«Recordings of the last day of his life seem to not exist. But we have photographs. I am showing them now for the first time. This is the very cell number 16, where Alexei was dying. Where he felt unwell, where he was vomiting. Where he lay on the floor and groaned in pain, where he convulsed while Senior Warrant Officer Alexander Belich first locked the grate, then the door, and ran away to avoid seeing what was happening inside», — Navalnaya said. She also demonstrated the plan of the EPKT — the very block where Alexei was held, which has 63 cameras. And there are no recordings from any of them.

«I demand that the results of the research on what exactly my husband, Alexei Navalny, was poisoned with, be disclosed. I demand this for myself, for our children, for Alexei's parents, for our supporters in Russia, and for all people around the world who fight for freedom and justice», — stated Yulia Navalnaya.
