The Kremlin has wished the government opponent Alexei Navalny a speedy recovery. "We know that he is in serious condition," President Vladimir Putin's spokesman Dmitry Peskov told journalists in Moscow on Thursday. "Like every citizen of the Russian Federation, we wish them a speedy recovery."
Navalny is being treated in the intensive care unit of a hospital in Omsk, Siberia, where he is artificially ventilated. According to his spokeswoman, the 44-year-old suddenly lost consciousness during a flight, which she attributed to deliberately induced poisoning.
