MOSCOW (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 05th September, 2020) Russian doctors have offered their German colleagues to establish a joint group on the case of Russian opposition politician Alexey Navalny, the president of Russia's National Medical Chamber, noted pediatrician Leonid Roshal, told reporters on Saturday.

"Many people are concerned about Navalny's fate, and the National Medical Chamber has now appealed to the German Medical Chamber ... in order to create an expert group with them to study the main reason for Navalny's condition," Roshal said.

The pediatrician added that the reasons were not clear yet, noting that Russian doctors treating Navalny did their job very well and saved the patient. Studies carried out in Russia did not show that the politician was poisoned though, he noted.

"Let us gather calmly � the representatives and specialists of Russia, as well as toxicologists and specialists from Germany � and we will discuss whether or not [Navalny was poisoned], because if it turns out that Navalny was, indeed, poisoned, we believe that it is necessary to initiate a criminal case in Russia," Roshal said.

According to Roshal, the Russian side has sent a request to German law enforcement agencies, as well as German doctors regarding the situation with Navalny, but there has been no answer yet.
