Merkel spoke about the Navalny case

German Chancellor Angela Merkel called the release of Alexei Navalny from jail a necessary measure. She is quoted by Reuters.

Earlier in January, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that the purpose of the West’s statements regarding Navalny was to divert attention from the crisis in which the liberal development model found itself. “One can immediately feel the joy with which the comments are coming, like a carbon copy,” he said.

The detention of Navalny at the Sheremetyevo airport became known on Sunday, January 17. This happened on the basis of the decision of the head of the Federal Penitentiary Service for Moscow, according to which Navalny was put on the wanted list for systematic violations of the conditions of the probationary period. He was arrested for 30 days.

Before his arrest, he was in Berlin, where he was taken on August 22, 2020. Two days earlier, during a flight from Tomsk to Moscow, he felt unwell, the plane was urgently landed in Omsk.
