Emperor Nicholas II with his son AlexeiMOSCOW, Jan 30The hemophilia gene made it possible to confirm the authenticity of the remains of the son of Nicholas II, Tsarevich Alexei, said the director of the Scientific Center for Genetics and Life Sciences of Sirius University, Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Doctor of Biological Sciences Evgeny Rogaev in the documentary film «The Romanov Case. Investigation established.» The film premiered on Sunday on Channel One. DNA tests were carried out along three lines — female, male and asexual. «We showed who is the carrier of the mutation, who is not, we found this, indeed, in Alexei. Alexandra Feodorovna has both a healthy variant this diseased variant, as expected, because she has two X chromosomes, Alexei has one X chromosome — only the diseased variant is present.In the sisters it turned out that the older sisters are not carriers of hemophilia and in one of the younger sisters we found that she really is a carrier. If we are guided by anthropological conclusions, then Anastasia has it, «the expert said. burial, in addition to bone fragments, a piece of burnt striped tissue was found: as you know, Tsarevich Alexei was wearing a vest on the day of the murder.»Pies or an English Bullet». Who killed the most famous Russian elderThe last Russian Emperor Nicholas II and his family were shot in the summer of 1918 in Yekaterinburg. In 1991, a burial was opened in a place called Porosenkov log near Yekaterinburg — presumably, the remains of the royal couple, three daughters and their entourage. In 2007, another burial was found not far from this place — possibly, Tsarevich Alexei and Grand Duchess Maria. In 2000, the Russian Church canonized Nicholas II and members of his family as saints. After the opening of the burial near Yekaterinburg, the remains of members of the imperial family were buried in the tomb of the Peter and Paul Cathedral in St. Petersburg. However, the Russian Orthodox Church (ROC) did not recognize the found remains as authentic due to lack of evidence. In July 2018, a representative of the RF IC reported that complex molecular genetic examinations confirmed that the remains found in the Porosenkov Log area near Yekaterinburg belonged to members of the royal family and their entourage. In addition, experts established the relationship of Emperor Alexander III, whose remains were exhumed in the Peter and Paul Cathedral in St. Petersburg, and the deceased person, identified as Nicholas II. Alexei and Grand Duchess Maria. In January 2022, the chairman of the Department for External Church Relations of the Moscow Patriarchate, Metropolitan Hilarion of Volokolamsk (Alfeev), stated that, in his opinion, «nothing today prevents the recognition of the authenticity of the Yekaterinburg remains.» In his opinion, the members of the Holy Synod of the Russian Orthodox Church «have no doubts about the authenticity of the remains, but the decision should be up to the top leadership of the church, and the top leadership of the church is the Council of Bishops.» The Council of Bishops, tentatively scheduled for May 2022, may decide in favor of the authenticity of the remains if the arguments in favor of this prevail and the fullness of the church agrees, the Metropolitan added.
