Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny posted a picture of himself from his hospital bed in Germany on Tuesday, looking gaunt but joking wryly about his condition and saying that he was enjoying the ability to finally breathe on his own after being poisoned with a nerve agent.
Navalny had been kept in an induced coma for more than two weeks as he was treated with an antidote before hospital officials said on September 7 that his condition had improved enough for him to be brought out of it.On Monday, the hospital said he had been removed from mechanical ventilation and was able to leave his bed for "short periods of time."
Despite his recovery, doctors have said they cannot rule out long-term health issues associated with the poisoning. The Hague-based Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons also is taking steps to have samples from Navalny tested at its designated labs, Germany has said. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters on Tuesday that Russia is puzzled by the German refusal to share Navalny's analyses and other medical data, or compare notes with the Russian doctors who found no trace of poison in his system while he was at a hospital in the Siberian city of Omsk."Russia has been absolutely open for cooperation in determining what happened," Peskov said.
