![Call Between Alexey Navalny and FSB Officer Konstantin Kudryavtsev [English Subtitles]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/gwvA49ZXnf8/mqdefault.jpg "Call Between Alexey Navalny and FSB Officer Konstantin Kudryavtsev [English Subtitles]
Full call between Navalny and one of the FSB officers in the team to trail and eventually poison him, Konstantin Kudryavtsev.
Before the publication of our recent joint investigation into the FSB officers involved in the operation to poison him in Tomsk, Navalny decided to call two members of the poison squad, Mikhail Shvets and Konstantin Kudryavtsev, by impersonating a senior security official. To both of these officers, Navalny introduced himself as a fictional character: Maxim Ustinov, an “aide to [Chairman of Russia’s Security Council] Nikolai Patrushev”. The premise of the call was that Navalny - playing the role of “Maxim Ustinov”, would ask the officers for an oral report on the reasons for the failure of the Navalny poisoning operation.
Over forty minutes, Kudryavtsev answered questions from Navalny whose voice he didnt recognize regarding the failed operation.")
