Moscow-Sana
Today, the Russian Foreign Ministry summoned a number of diplomats from European countries due to its position on the Alexei Navalny case and the sanctions imposed by the European Union on Russia.
According to RIA Novosti, the French and Swedish ambassadors and the German deputy ambassador were summoned after the European Union imposed sanctions on Moscow related to the Navalny case.
And the European Union decided last October to impose sanctions on personalities and institutions in Russia that the bloc considered to be responsible for the alleged poisoning of Navalny.
In turn, the Russian authorities have repeatedly called for the need not to rush to conclusions about Navalny's health, questioning the "hypothesis of poisoning him" and affirming their willingness to cooperate to uncover the circumstances of the accident.
Last October, the Russian Foreign Ministry reaffirmed that the Navalny case was just a pretext to impose long-standing sanctions on Russia.
