We'll bury you more than once

Conclusion: it is possible that it was not the royal family that was reburied in the Peter and Paul Fortress. Let us note that the Russian Orthodox Church even in 1994, when preparations for the ceremony began, expressed doubts about the authenticity of the “Ekaterinburg remains.” But then the authorities needed this symbolic gesture - a kind of reckoning with the past, and the examination did not disappoint. Now there seems to be no reason to doubt the accuracy of American scientists. But who knows, especially since the current government needs completely different symbols.
