Russia's foreign ministry accused the United States of making "sweeping accusations" over who was to blame for the death of prominent Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny on Friday.

"The death of a person is always a tragedy," it said. "Instead of sweeping accusations, one ought to show restraint and wait for the official results of the forensic medical examination."
