• She did not identify the laboratories or specify the substance detected and called for full release of the reports.
• Navalnaya alleges some Western politicians told her publication was being postponed for political considerations.
• Russian authorities maintain Navalny died of a combination of diseases, and the Kremlin rejects accusations of wrongdoing.
