00:28:50,897 --> 00:28:53,233
And every one of them,
Jesus Christ,

320
00:28:53,299 --> 00:28:55,268
just watch previous interviews.

321
00:28:55,368 --> 00:28:56,636
Roher: Hold on.
Were there not

322
00:28:56,736 --> 00:28:58,571
a couple of Sieg Heil-ers
at that thing?

323
00:28:58,638 --> 00:29:00,140
Sorry?

324
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,760
Were there not a couple
of Nazi guys at that march?

325
00:29:03,143 --> 00:29:05,278
Certainly a Sieg Heil-ers
would be a different category

326
00:29:05,378 --> 00:29:07,881
that you would not
want to associate with
or march beside.

327
00:29:07,947 --> 00:29:09,916
Well, in the normal world,

328
00:29:09,983 --> 00:29:13,486
in the normal, uh, political
system, of course,

329
00:29:13,586 --> 00:29:17,991
I would never be within the same
political party with them.

330
00:29:18,910 --> 00:29:19,759
But we are creating coalition,

331
00:29:19,826 --> 00:29:22,996
broader coalition
to fight the regime

332
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:25,650
just to achieve the situation

333
00:29:25,131 --> 00:29:27,400
where everyone
can participate in election.

334
00:29:27,467 --> 00:29:29,200
'Cause a lot of politicians
would be uncomfortable

335
00:29:29,102 --> 00:29:31,838
even associating or being
in the same photograph

336
00:29:31,938 --> 00:29:33,600
as one of these guys.

337
00:29:33,106 --> 00:29:34,174
You're comfortable
with that?

338
00:29:34,274 --> 00:29:36,509
I'm okay with that,
and I'm --

339
00:29:36,609 --> 00:29:40,347
I consider it's --
it's my political superpower,

340
00:29:40,447 --> 00:29:42,449
I can talk to everyone.

341
00:29:42,515 --> 00:29:46,586
Anyway, well, they, uh, are
citizen of Russian federation

342
00:29:46,653 --> 00:29:48,521
and if I want to fight Putin,

343
00:29:48,621 --> 00:29:50,824
if I want to be a leader
of a country,

344
00:29:50,924 --> 00:29:54,694
I can-- I cannot just ignore
the huge part of it.

345
00:29:54,794 --> 00:29:56,129
Well, there are a lot of people

346
00:29:56,196 --> 00:29:58,465
who call themselves
nationalists.

347
00:29:58,531 --> 00:29:59,699
Okay, let's discuss it.

348
00:29:59,799 --> 00:30:01,267
We're living in the country

349
00:30:01,334 --> 00:30:04,604
when they are poisoning
a politician and killing people.

350
00:30:04,671 --> 00:30:07,640
And, uh,
arresting people for nothing.

351
00:30:07,707 --> 00:30:12,212
Uh, so, of course,
I am totally fine

352
00:30:12,312 --> 00:30:16,983
to sit with a guy
whose, uh, whose rally

353
00:30:17,500 --> 00:30:21,621
looks kind of not
very good for me.

354
00:30:38,705 --> 00:30:41,410
Grozev: The Russian media
didn't find anything,

355
00:30:41,141 --> 00:30:43,743
and German investigators
didn't have the jurisdiction.

356
00:30:43,843 --> 00:30:46,312
So we realized, "There's nobody
who's actually going

357
00:30:46,379 --> 00:30:50,884
to actively investigate this
unless we jump into this."

358
00:30:50,984 --> 00:30:55,422
{\an8}♪♪

359
00:30:55,522 --> 00:30:57,924
We knew that the poison
was Novichok

360
00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,760
and Novichok, we had proven
in the previous investigation,

361
00:31:00,860 --> 00:31:03,263
is only manufactured
in this facility

362
00:31:03,363 --> 00:31:06,332
called the Signal Institute.

363
00:31:06,399 --> 00:31:08,702
The Signal Institute in Moscow

364
00:31:08,768 --> 00:31:11,671
works under the guise
of a R&D center

365
00:31:11,738 --> 00:31:17,444
that develops advanced forms
of sports, nutrition drinks.

366
00:31:17,544 --> 00:31:19,245
That's the legend.

367
00:31:19,346 --> 00:31:21,114
Yet, they employ,
for this work,

368
00:31:21,214 --> 00:31:24,517
12 scientists whose only
experience and background

369
00:31:24,584 --> 00:31:28,121
is in chemical weapons.

370
00:31:28,221 --> 00:31:31,291
Our hypothesis --
this is the entity

371
00:31:31,391 --> 00:31:34,260
that actually provides
the poison for the killers

372
00:31:34,361 --> 00:31:38,898
who travel around the world
poisoning people with Novichok.

373
00:31:38,965 --> 00:31:41,968
So what we did is we bought from
the Russian black market

374
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:45,405
the phone records for the head
of the Signal Institute.

375
00:31:45,472 --> 00:31:48,740
We looked at numbers
that only appear

376
00:31:48,141 --> 00:31:51,144
just before
the poisoning of Navalny,

377
00:31:51,244 --> 00:31:53,480
and those were suspicious.

378
00:31:53,580 --> 00:31:55,882
But once we have
a suspicious number,

379
00:31:55,949 --> 00:31:57,550
you go through a number
of Russian apps

380
00:31:57,617 --> 00:32:00,487
that allow you to see
how that phone number is listed

381
00:32:00,587 --> 00:32:02,889
in other people's phonebooks.

382
00:32:02,956 --> 00:32:05,258
So, for example,
I put in my number

383
00:32:05,325 --> 00:32:08,395
and it will show up as Christo
the journalist from Bellingcat,

384
00:32:08,461 --> 00:32:11,664
because somebody would have put
my name into their phonebook

385
00:32:11,765 --> 00:32:14,667
and that description would have
been shared into this app.

386
00:32:14,768 --> 00:32:16,690
First number I looked up,

387
00:32:16,136 --> 00:32:19,506
showed up as
"Alexey doctor from FSB."

388
00:32:19,606 --> 00:32:21,841
Well, that was interesting.
A doctor from FSB?

389
00:32:21,941 --> 00:32:23,576
Alexey?
But that was not enough.

390
00:32:23,643 --> 00:32:26,746
We couldn't place a real person
behind this name.

391
00:32:26,813 --> 00:32:29,449
Then, I would look up
if this number showed up

392
00:32:29,516 --> 00:32:32,919
in any car-registration
databases.

393
00:32:32,986 --> 00:32:37,357
And we found an actual
Alexey Alexandrov who owns a car

394
00:32:37,457 --> 00:32:41,127
and this number was listed
for contacting that person.

395
00:32:41,194 --> 00:32:43,463
So, then you have a real person
with a birthday.

396
00:32:43,530 --> 00:32:45,331
Then, you look up
his passport file,

397
00:32:45,432 --> 00:32:47,200
you see his face.

398
00:32:47,300 --> 00:32:50,470
You repeat that many times with
the other suspicious numbers,

399
00:32:50,537 --> 00:32:53,707
and then you have a short list
of interesting people.

400
00:32:53,807 --> 00:32:55,975
And these became
our prime suspects.

401
00:32:57,811 --> 00:33:00,680
Now, we knew when Navalny
had traveled to Siberia.

402
00:33:00,780 --> 00:33:02,716
We had the actual
passenger manifests

403
00:33:02,816 --> 00:33:06,386
of six different flights
that had flown into Novosibirsk

404
00:33:06,486 --> 00:33:09,222
where Navalny flew from Moscow
on the day before,

405
00:33:09,322 --> 00:33:12,692
during, and after the day
on which he arrived there.

406
00:33:12,792 --> 00:33:15,562
So, we needed to see if any
of those suspicious people

407
00:33:15,662 --> 00:33:19,232
traveled to Siberia
at the time of the poisoning,

408
00:33:19,332 --> 00:33:21,670
and we found an overlap.

409
00:33:22,869 --> 00:33:26,906
We found a nest of wasps
we didn't know existed.

410
00:33:27,700 --> 00:33:31,311
It's a domestic assassination
machine on an industrial scale.

411
00:33:31,378 --> 00:33:34,347
I was absolutely shocked
that this was so fast

412
00:33:34,414 --> 00:33:37,217
and the whole plot
disentangled so quickly,

413
00:33:37,317 --> 00:33:40,420
so I just reached out by Twitter
and said, "Alexei,

414
00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:43,423
I think we may have found
who poisoned you."

415
00:33:47,994 --> 00:33:50,563
Alexei: After I had went out
of the hospital,

416
00:33:50,663 --> 00:33:54,267
I decided to move
to Black Forest

417
00:33:54,367 --> 00:33:57,437
and live in some small village.

418
00:33:57,537 --> 00:34:02,942
You can just walk for hours
and not meet any person at all.

419
00:34:04,511 --> 00:34:06,546
These are my German friends,
actually.

420
00:34:06,613 --> 00:34:11,510
The little pony is my friend
and donkey is Yulia's friend.

421
00:34:11,117 --> 00:34:14,621
And this is, uh,
routine of our walk.

422
00:34:14,721 --> 00:34:17,230
Come here, my little pony.

423
00:34:19,590 --> 00:34:20,460
Isn't he sweet?

424
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,797
Better than your donkey.

425
00:34:23,897 --> 00:34:26,132
Everybody like
the small pony.

426
00:34:26,232 --> 00:34:27,634
It's like usual.

427
00:34:27,734 --> 00:34:29,769
But donkey is like...

428
00:34:29,869 --> 00:34:31,938
You're scaring him.
Go away.

429
00:34:32,380 --> 00:34:33,273
Go away.

430
00:34:33,373 --> 00:34:36,576
Aw, you poor guy.

431
00:34:36,643 --> 00:34:39,546
Donkey, hi.
Of course, you like me.

432
00:34:39,612 --> 00:34:41,114
Oh, come on.

433
00:34:41,214 --> 00:34:43,917
This is a very
irritable woman.

434
00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:47,387
Come on,
my mighty horse.

435
00:34:47,454 --> 00:34:49,989
Come here.
More carrot.

436
00:34:50,900 --> 00:34:51,591
You grow big.

437
00:34:51,658 --> 00:34:54,327
They are cute,
but they are not very smart.

438
00:34:54,427 --> 00:34:55,829
So, they decided,

439
00:34:55,929 --> 00:34:58,665
for their fence,
not to provide electricity.

440
00:34:58,765 --> 00:35:01,301
Stop. Do it.

441
00:35:01,401 --> 00:35:09,743
{\an8}♪♪

442
00:35:22,220 --> 00:35:23,189
Ahhh.

443
00:35:23,289 --> 00:35:26,860
Yulia want an apple

444
00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:29,362
and asked me
to take it.

445
00:35:29,462 --> 00:35:33,967
But it's Germany,
so it's someone's apple.

446
00:35:34,340 --> 00:35:35,468
And there is a police
over there.

447
00:35:35,535 --> 00:35:38,605
I'll come there when
it will be dark.

448
00:35:38,672 --> 00:35:40,674
And no police.

449
00:35:40,774 --> 00:35:42,275
So, you're
a Russian criminal

450
00:35:42,342 --> 00:35:44,310
who arrived to Germany?

451
00:35:44,377 --> 00:35:47,447
No, it's, like --
It's okay.

452
00:35:47,514 --> 00:35:49,549
It belongs to,
I don't know.

453
00:35:49,649 --> 00:35:51,885
How do you know? How do you know
that it belonged --

454
00:35:51,985 --> 00:35:52,986
Because it's open place.

455
00:35:53,530 --> 00:35:55,388
There's no anything,
which...

456
00:35:55,488 --> 00:35:58,580
This is a very Russian style,

457
00:35:58,158 --> 00:36:00,860
you know, of thinking
about property.

458
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:04,300
Like,
it belong to everyone,

459
00:36:04,130 --> 00:36:05,565
because
it's an open place.

460
00:36:05,665 --> 00:36:07,233
Just come and get it.

461
00:36:07,333 --> 00:36:13,873
{\an8}♪♪

462
00:36:13,973 --> 00:36:16,242
Pevchikh:
The story of this guy

463
00:36:16,343 --> 00:36:18,244
who lives in Vienna
but is Bulgarian

464
00:36:18,345 --> 00:36:21,548
but worked in Russia and that
he has all of his own money

465
00:36:21,648 --> 00:36:22,916
and he spends it all
on investigations

466
00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:24,651
in Russian crimes.

467
00:36:24,718 --> 00:36:27,587
He just sounded too suspicious.

468
00:36:27,687 --> 00:36:29,556
Too good to be true.

469
00:36:29,656 --> 00:36:31,925
Too...capable?

470
00:36:32,250 --> 00:36:34,728
He sounded a bit, you know,
made up.

471
00:36:37,364 --> 00:36:39,232
Roher: Are you confident

472
00:36:39,332 --> 00:36:41,501
that he is not
MI6 or CIA?

473
00:36:41,568 --> 00:36:43,770
I'm pretty confident.
I wouldn't say I rule it out,

474
00:36:43,870 --> 00:36:46,720
but I'm pretty confident
that he's not.

475
00:36:46,172 --> 00:36:50,430

Alexei: I was suspicious
about this guy from Twitter.

477
00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:58,885
I just saw his old laptop

478
00:36:58,952 --> 00:37:02,122
and all these tables with data.

479
00:37:04,557 --> 00:37:06,526
Turns out, and I was
very surprised,

480
00:37:06,593 --> 00:37:08,628
that the whole thing
about Bellingcat

481
00:37:08,728 --> 00:37:13,400
is just one smart guy,
no CIA involved, no MI6.

482

He's just a-a nice
and very kind

483
00:37:16,903 --> 00:37:19,939
Bulgarian nerd with a laptop.

484

Grozev: I will show you
photographs.

485
00:37:51,404 --> 00:37:53,440
Tell me if you recognize
any of the people

486
00:37:53,506 --> 00:37:54,674
in those photographs.

487
00:38:14,794 --> 00:38:16,429
Grozev: Getting through
emotionally to Alexei

488
00:38:16,496 --> 00:38:17,764
was a piece of cake.

489
00:38:17,831 --> 00:38:19,966
Took literally an hour.

490
00:38:20,330 --> 00:38:22,969
Getting through to Maria
took much longer.

491
00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:25,772
She was very tough.
She never smiled.

492
00:38:25,839 --> 00:38:28,608
She was the one vetting me,
whether I am a spy or not.

493
00:38:37,384 --> 00:38:38,852
But we needed information

494
00:38:38,952 --> 00:38:41,388
that only his team
would be privy to.

495
00:38:41,488 --> 00:38:43,723
So we found a very
workable arrangement,

496
00:38:43,823 --> 00:38:46,659
which was completely ethical
and acceptable to us.

497
00:38:46,726 --> 00:38:49,496
We agreed that Maria Pevchikh
would be working

498
00:38:49,562 --> 00:38:50,864
as part of our team

499
00:38:50,964 --> 00:38:52,699
and she would not be
sharing with Alexei

500
00:38:52,799 --> 00:38:54,334
all the information
in real time

501
00:38:54,401 --> 00:38:56,903
so that we wouldn't
be influenced

502
00:38:57,300 --> 00:38:58,805
by the bias of the victim.

When we discovered
this clandestine operation,

507
00:39:41,548 --> 00:39:45,185
it was so shocking that even
to us, it looked unbelievable.

508
00:39:45,251 --> 00:39:46,619
I mean, come on.

509
00:39:46,720 --> 00:39:50,390
The government is paying a whole
team of 20-plus people

510
00:39:50,457 --> 00:39:52,759
whose only job is
to poison other Russians?

511
00:39:52,859 --> 00:39:54,394
That sounds improbable.

512
00:39:54,461 --> 00:39:57,197
So we needed other journalists
to look at it.

513
00:39:57,263 --> 00:39:58,898
I would like to share
the limelight

514
00:39:58,965 --> 00:40:00,400
with some global medias

515
00:40:00,467 --> 00:40:03,403
so that is validated
by more than just us.

So, CNN and Spiegel
are fine with you?

-Yeah. Absolutely.
-Okay.

518

That means that we need to film
exactly like a week from now,

trying to get everybody to stick
to the same time.

524

It's all timed
for a simultaneous release.

525
00:40:30,930 --> 00:40:32,298
All the media channels

526
00:40:32,399 --> 00:40:34,968
are going to drop the bombshell
simultaneously.

527
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:36,436
Lister: There's a huge debate
as to whether

528
00:40:36,503 --> 00:40:40,600
this was intended
to incapacitate or kill.

Yeah.

If, for example,

532
00:40:46,112 --> 00:40:47,414
Navalny had laundry
returned to him

533
00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:49,820
while he was staying
at the Tomsk Hotel

534
00:40:49,149 --> 00:40:50,517
the afternoon
before he left...

535
00:40:50,617 --> 00:40:52,986
...would that be
a point of access?

536
00:40:53,860 --> 00:40:55,210
It's definitely a possibility.

537
00:40:55,121 --> 00:40:58,458
The question is how well you
can dose the agent that way.

538
00:40:58,525 --> 00:41:00,260
You put, let's say, 10 times

the deadly dose
on the clothing.

540
00:41:01,628 --> 00:41:03,290
You must be sure, however,
that at least

541
00:41:03,129 --> 00:41:05,832
one lethal dose
gets into the body.

Is it your contention
that Vladimir Putin

555
00:42:06,926 --> 00:42:08,762
must have been
aware of this?

556
00:42:08,862 --> 00:42:10,530
Of course, 100%.

557

It could have not
happened without...

Well, definitely

these are Spetsnaz guys
with no real training.

562
00:42:37,891 --> 00:42:41,628
I think it makes sense to try
to prank stupid guys

563
00:42:41,728 --> 00:42:46,566
and, uh, maybe
these non-military guys.

When you were a kid,

565
00:42:52,238 --> 00:42:53,807
did you have
any political awareness?

566
00:42:53,907 --> 00:42:55,141
Was this
a political family?

567
00:42:55,241 --> 00:42:57,444
Did your family talk
about politics?

568
00:42:57,544 --> 00:43:02,148
Yes, my family talks
about politics all the time

569
00:43:02,248 --> 00:43:05,552
and it was very, uh...

570
00:43:07,587 --> 00:43:12,580
They start to talk much more
after Chernobyl disaster.

571
00:43:12,125 --> 00:43:15,428
Because actually,
my father and his family,

572
00:43:15,495 --> 00:43:16,796
they are from Chernobyl,

573
00:43:16,896 --> 00:43:19,966
from the small village
2 kilometers away.

574
00:43:20,660 --> 00:43:23,803
And, I would say, 10 kilometers
away from the nuclear station.

575
00:43:23,903 --> 00:43:26,840
Everyone knows that there was
an explosion

576
00:43:26,940 --> 00:43:30,343
of a nuclear station,
but news keeping silence

577
00:43:30,443 --> 00:43:35,415
and so all this nuclear
and radioactive dust

578
00:43:35,482 --> 00:43:39,953
was on these fields
and they were forced to go

579
00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:44,591
to plant potatoes
just to prevent rumors,

580
00:43:44,657 --> 00:43:48,161
just to explain population
that everything is fine.

581
00:43:48,261 --> 00:43:50,864
Everything is okay!
Go and work in the fields!

And with the first appearance
of Putin on the screen,

583
00:43:56,636 --> 00:43:57,937
I just felt it.

584
00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:02,542

like I am watching TV

political lizard

challenge for me.

and balancing,

because you need
some balance here, it's...
