MOSCOW. Sept 3 (Interfax) - Russian Ambassador to Germany Sergei Nechayev was not provided with any details concerning the situation involving Russian opposition activist Alexei Navalny during a meeting at the German Foreign Office on Wednesday, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova said on Wednesday.
Speaking on the Rossiya-1 television channel, Zakharova said the Russian ambassador asked the German diplomatic officials to present some facts or data concerning Navalny's health condition.
"What answer do you think he received from the German partners? None. Neither facts, nor data, or formulas, or findings, or memos - nothing at all," Zakharova said.
The Russian embassy in Berlin later said on its Facebook account that "no substantive facts were provided to the ambassador" at the meeting at the German Foreign Office on Wednesday.
"We call on our partners to avoid the politicization of this incident but rely exclusively on verifiable facts, which we hope will be presented within the shortest possible time. We expect full-scale cooperation and an exchange of information with the use of the existing bilateral legal mechanisms," the embassy said.
