Lavrov: Russia introduces mirror sanctions against Germany and France over the Navalny case

Russia will respond to the sanctions imposed by the European Union over the situation with Navalny.

On Thursday, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that as a response, mirror sanctions measures were applied against the heads of the administrations of the heads of France and Germany.

The announcement of Russian sanctions against these two countries will be made within a few days. Lavrov also said that France and Germany behave unacceptably in all matters related to the opposition blogger. Thus, creating a foundation for misunderstanding between the Russian Federation and the European Union.

According to the minister, Germany puts forward new versions of the incident with Alexei Navalny almost every day. This suggests that he could well have been poisoned either directly at the Charite clinic, or else on the plane on which the politician was transported to Germany.
