@ My very best wishes: The first newsru source you attempted to insert, the article says:
Позднее он заявил, что перенес отравление, но медики не смогли установить тип яда и то, каким образом он попал в организм. При этом Быков отверг версию о покушении, организованном властями. "Никуда я не буду обращаться, - сказал он в ответ на вопрос, будет ли обращаться в правоохранительные органы для выяснения обстоятельств. - Я думаю, что если бы меня хотели отравить, то меня бы отравили [...]"
This roughly translates to He later stated that he suffered poisoning, but doctors could not establish the type of poison and how it got into the body. At the same time, Bykov rejected the version of the assassination attempt organized by the authorities. "I will not go anywhere," he said in response to a question whether he would go to law enforcement agencies to clarify the circumstances. "I think that if they wanted to poison me, they would poison me [...]"
This is further supported by another
newsru article. No mention of Novichok.
The second msk.ru source, only refers to Bykov once and says:
В комментариях к этой публикации пользователи начали выписывать совпадения, которые показались им значимыми. Например, в 2019-ом один из возможных агентов летал в Ростов-на-Дону в те же дни, что и писатель Дмитрий Быков, а прошло это за несколько дней до его отравления.
This roughly translates to In the comments to this publication, users began to write out matches that seemed significant to them. For example, in 2019, one of the possible agents flew to Rostov-to-Don on the same days as the writer Dmitry Bykov, and this passed a few days before his poisoning
, which does not imply any kind of poisoning by Novichok.
Lastly, the NBC News opinion piece, never directly says that his poisoning was caused by Novichok, it even says that the "poison" was never identified. Please stop trying to add information not present in the sources. CPCEnjoyer ( talk) 14:51, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
However, after poisoning of Navalny, he is saying in interviews he thinks he was poisoned by Novichok.Why not use that as a source then? The grani ru source also makes no mention of Novichok. It writes the following about Bykov:
Поездки еще одного сотрудника ФСБ могут быть связаны с госпитализацией писателя Дмитрия Быкова в апреле 2019 года. Быкову стало плохо 17 апреля во время перелета из Екатеринбурга в Уфу. За 10 дней до этого, 7 апреля, Быков выступал с лекцией в Ростове-на-Дону. 6 апреля туда же прилетел Паняев, а на следующий день вылетел в столицу. Сам Быков позже заявлял, что считает причиной случившегося именно отравление.
The trips of another FSB officer may be related to the hospitalization of the writer Dmitry Bykov in April 2019. Bykov became ill on April 17 during a flight from Yekaterinburg to Ufa. 10 days earlier, on April 7, Bykov gave a lecture in Rostov-on-Don. On April 6, Panyaev flew there, and the next day he flew to the capital. Bykov himself later stated that he considered the poisoning to be the cause of the incident, which once again does not imply in any way that it was done by Novichok.
This is mostly an allegation, partly supported by one of Belingcat investigations.That is fine, however in order for an allegation to be a part of an article, someone needs to allege it. CPCEnjoyer ( talk) 15:36, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
The trips of another FSB officer may be related to the hospitalization of the writer Dmitry Bykovimplies Novichok poisoning which implies FSB assassination. Neither of those two are not mentioned anywhere in the article. And again, from the newsru article:
При этом Быков отверг версию о покушении, организованном властями. "Никуда я не буду обращаться, - сказал он в ответ на вопрос, будет ли обращаться в правоохранительные органы для выяснения обстоятельств.
At the same time, Bykov rejected the version of the assassination attempt organized by the authorities. "I will not go anywhere," he said in response to a question whether he would go to law enforcement agencies to clarify the circumstances.
Bykov himself later stated that he considered the poisoning to be the cause of the incident.
[...] unfortunately, the poison was never identified, making direct attribution difficult even as the culprit seems obvious. A similar story can be found in the cases of other poisoned domestic opposition figures, including Vladimir Kara-Murza and Dmitry Bykov.-> Poison was never identified, they do not claim it was Novichok.
No matter who is pulling the puppet strings, the poisoning of Navalny clearly reflects the growing impunity with which Russia's security services are operating both on their own soil and abroad. On the domestic front, the poisoning of Pyotr Verzilov, an avant garde performance artist-turned-investigative reporter, is instructive. Two years ago, while working on an investigation into the activities of Russian billionaire Yevgeny Prigozhin and his GRU-linked mercenary group in the Central African Republic, Verzilov was poisoned with an unidentified substance in Moscow and was later treated at the same Berlin hospital as Navalny. Fortunately, Verzilov recovered, but unfortunately, the poison was never identified, making direct attribution difficult even as the culprit seems obvious. A similar story can be found in the cases of other poisoned domestic opposition figures, including Vladimir Kara-Murza and Dmitry Bykov.
But the sources do claim it was possibly/probably Novichok.
So, the article entitled "Did Putin order Russia's latest poison attack? What Navalny's Novichok diagnosis tells usHeadlines can't be used when not supported in the body, per WP:HEADLINE.
As about grani.ru, I have no idea where you got such citation.What citation? I already translated the russian quote you sent. He says he was poisoned, which I agree with you happened, but he does not mention Novichok or FSB involvement. CPCEnjoyer ( talk) 18:38, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
The vast majority of reliable sources allege that he was poisoned by the Russian government, and you seem to be coming off from this from the angle of "I don't like it therefore it shouldn't be included." Irregardless of what reliable citations state. Des Vallee ( talk) 00:18, 4 June 2021 (UTC)
He does not [4]Can you please give me the timestamp in the video where he says that he now believes it was the government?
Что касается меня, то для меня тоже было с самого начала очевидно, что и в отношении меня была проведена целенаправленная операция.
As for me, it was also obvious to me from the very beginning that a purposeful operation was carried out against me, so we should put this in as well. Perhaps we should say that
[...] at the time, Bykov denied this and said [...] However, after the poisoning of Navalny, he said there were "too many similarities" and it was "also obvious to me from the very beginning that a purposeful operation was carried out against me"? CPCEnjoyer ( talk) 10:42, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
The results of nvestigations by Bellingcat [6], Der Spiegel and The Insider [7] just were published, see RFE/RL about it [8]. The FSB agents shadowed and poisoned him while he was giving lectures to kids about Harry Potter, Karlsson-on-the-Roof and Russian jokes. He said he has no idea why he was targeted. In one of lectures he compared Putin with an alien. My very best wishes ( talk) 13:49, 9 June 2021 (UTC)
