The Nyt observer proposed to compile a "list of Navalny" in response to a policy poisoning. In the Kremlin it was called "absurd"

The observer The New York Times Bret Stephens in his column invited the US Congress to accept by analogy with the Magnitsky list to create a "list of Navalny" in response to the poisoning of the Russian opposition Alexei Navalny by combat neuro-paramatic substance "Novice".

“In 2020, in the face of a possible resistance from the Trump administration, Congress has a chance to do something useful by accepting the“ Navalny Law, ”Stevens writes. He noted that the“ Act of Magnitsky ”had a neuralgic impact on the Russian government because he hit the patient.” The “lawyer law”, according to the journalist, advanced the “Magnitsky act” a few steps forward.

According to Stevens, the idea was supported by William Brauder, the founder of the Hermitage Capital Management, founder of the London Foundation, with which the lawyer Sergei Magnitsky collaborated in the Russian prison. Brauder, according to the observer, advocated compiling a “long” list of government officials who are involved in poisoning or concealing Navalny’s poisoning, as well as for the sanctions to introduce the United States, Great Britain, Canada, the EU and Australia simultaneously.

The idea also sounded to create a permanent two-party commission to investigate the murder of politicians Boris Nemtsov and Sergey Yushenkov, human rights activist Natalya Estemirova, journalist Anna Politkovskaya, poisoning Sergei Skripal, Vladimir Kara-Murza and Victor Yushchenko.

“Moral responsibility is the first step. Step of the second - accountability on facts. The third step is economic responsibility,” the Columnist Nyt transfers measures that, in his opinion, should be taken in relation to Navalny's poisoning.

In the Kremlin, a proposal to create a "list of Navalny" was called absurd. “Some kinds of reasoning are unlikely to be appropriate here. It would be strange if such a person as a Baruder, who is wanted by the Russian Federation for tax and other crimes, was not solidarized with such absurd proposals,” commented on the radio stations Moscow said the press secretary of the President of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov.

The “List of Magnitsky” is a list of persons who, according to the compilers of the document, are responsible for the maintenance of the detention, cruel circulation and death of the auditor Sergey Magnitsky, other gross violations of human rights in the Russian Federation, and a series of large thefts from the Russian budget under the guise of returning taxes disclosed by Magnitsky together with a group of other lawyers. Sanctions against the participants of the Magnitsky List include a ban on entering the United States and blocking financial assets in American banks.

The list includes the head of the Investigative Committee, Alexander Bastrykin, the head of Chechnya Ramzan Kadyrov, State Duma deputy Andrei Lugovoi, deputy general of the prosecutor Viktor Grin, former officer of the North battalion Ruslan Geremeyev, suspected of involvement in the murder of Boris Nemtsov. The list also includes several judges, chiefs of the pre -trial detention center, representatives of the Federal Tax Service, Prosecutor General and Prosecutor's Office of Moscow, the FSB, the IC of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Moscow Police.
