Swiss expert scoffs at claim
Print Edition
The Swiss expert who examined samples of Yasser Arafat’s remains dismissed as a “political declaration” a statement by Russian researchers yesterday that excluded radiation poisoning as the cause for the Palestinian leader’s death.
“The Russians, they make claims without providing any data, without providing any scientific arguments, for me that is empty, a political declaration,” said Francois Bochud, director of the Lausanne Radiophysics Institute.
Vladimir Uiba, the head of Russia’s Federal Medical-Biological Agency, told a news conference in Moscow yesterday that Arafat “died a natural death and not from radiation.”
Bochud criticized the Russians for not releasing their report.
