“Massive thanks to everyone for their support. The struggle for Alexei’s life and health is just beginning,” Navalny`s spokesperson, Kira Yarmysh tweeted.
However, Ms. Kira censured doctors for delaying the approval of flight despite the fact the plane and right documents had been set since Friday morning.
The doctors also said that they are making the decision to transfer him after pressure form family and relatives
“As we’re in possession of a request from relatives to permit him to be transported somewhere, we have now taken the decision that we do not object to his transfer to another in-patient facility,” Dr Kalinichenko said.
At the same time, the doctors at Omsk announced that no poison was found in Navalny`s blood and that his situation could have emerged from a “metabolic disorder” occasioned by low blood sugar
The doctors also said that an industrial chemical had been found n his skin and hair.
KDRTV understands that the opposition leaders in April 2017 were taken to hospital after an antiseptic green dye was splashed on his face in Moscow.
