Navalny Leaves German Hospital One Month After Near-Fatal Poisoning
Although outpatient therapy will be necessary, this is an excellent outcome all things considered. That said, I am sure Putin will again attempt to assassinate Mr. Navalny.

Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny has been discharged from hospital after more than a month of treatment in Germany for his near-fatal poisoning with Novichok, Berlin’s Charité hospital said Wednesday. Navalny, 44, was flown to Germany two days after falling violently ill on a flight in Siberia on Aug. 20. Germany says it has evidence backed by French and Swedish scientists that the fierce critic of President Vladimir Putin was poisoned by a Novichok nerve agent, while Russia denies that he was poisoned. Charité said Navalny was discharged from inpatient care on Tuesday after 32 days of treatment, 24 of which were spent in intensive care. “Based on the patient’s progress and current condition, the treating physicians believe that complete recovery is possible,” the hospital said. Charité reiterated its previous assertions that “it remains too early to gauge the potential long-term effects of his severe poisoning.”
