What happened to Alexei Navalny?
For the first time, the German government is no longer ruling out stopping the construction of the controversial Nord Stream 2 pipeline,the huge energy project would double the flow of Russian gas to Europe using a pipeline beneath the Baltic Sea that is nearing completion.
A spokesman for the German government said on Monday that it was too early to make a decision about Nord Stream.
He said that Russia had “serious questions” to answer but that a response could not be expected in “three to four days”.
The project must be completed despite current “difficulties”, said Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak according to Interfax news agency.
The European Union has demanded a “transparent” investigation by the Russian government.
US President Donald Trump has refused to condemn Russia saying the case was “tragic” but he has not seen proof of Vladimir Putin’s involvement.
There have been a number of previous attacks on high-profile critics or opponents of President Putin, including politicians, intelligence officers and journalists.
The Kremlin has always denied involvement.
