"As nerve agents, the Novichok agents belong to the class of organophosphate acetylcholinesterase inhibitors. These chemical compounds inhibit the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, preventing the normal breakdown of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. Acetylcholine concentrations then increase at neuromuscular junctions to cause involuntary contraction of all skeletal muscles (cholinergic crisis). This then leads to respiratory and cardiac arrest (as the victim's heart and diaphragm muscles no longer function normally) and finally death from heart failure or suffocation as copious fluid secretions fill the victim's lungs."

Did you ever ask Russian people if they know who is Navalny and how they know him and above all would they vote for him? You obviously did not but you could make a minimal effort to look into publicly available and uncontested public opinion poll made by independent polling organisation Levada. The results indicate that over 90% of Russian population does not trust to Navalny and consider him as a quisling in Russia. However you are above truth and above public opinion because you have your orders to fulfil. Let me tell you that even those 50% of Russians who do not like Putin because he is pro western and is protecting oligarchs instead public would never support anyone who is quisling as Navalny is. Keep this info in your mind and now ask yourself where is point that an elephant would want to squash a fly? Russia proved time and again that they have smart and intelligent leaders who understand human nature better than our western governments do. It is humiliating for a journalist to be so vehemently and unilaterally bias without ever questioning his opinion and read different information which would undoubtedly cast the shadow over their unjustifiably preconceived ideas and opinions. Just ask yourself what would you think if Russia would deny Germany necessary data which would justified accusations? Would you support Russia as you do Germany or you would shout all the way up to the stars that Russia is guilty. Germany is following steps of fake MH-17 investigation, UK - Skripal investigation, Ukraine and many other quite on daily basis which were NEVER supported with NEEDED EVIDENCE, This is clear witch-hunt in which our Western media willingly participate - Repulsive and shameful, You should be ashamed of yourself.

[@JamesBarraletMusic]

The Kremlin has national security concerns because of the expansion of NATO and the EU. There is a NATO base in Estonia which can scramble fighter planes to St Petersburg within 3 minutes. Because of the Great European Plain which stretches from France and opens like a funnel deep into Russia, the lack of militarily defendable positions, and the history of that geography favouring attacking forces, Russia needs a sizeable buffer zone to the west to ensure national security. The sustainable solution is to grant all countries from Germany to Russia with internationally protected neutrality and independence. This creates the buffer zone Russia needs, protects Russia from perceived western threats, Germany and Western Europe from perceived eastern threats, and gives the countries in the buffer zone peace and stability. This requires a withdrawal of NATO from these countries, and a banning of build up of any foreign military forces in these countries, Russian or western, under threat of internationally co-ordinated military action. As it is, every nation is fighting for his own agenda, and there will never be any balance achieved. The Kremlin is quite capable of stepping up heavy handed policies, and this will not be pleasant for anyone. It is not pleasant for life to be carried out in fear. Choose your leaders because of wisdom and not ambition, and these things can come about. All divisions weaken humanity.
