Germany on Friday demanded swift medical care for jailed Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny, who has complained of being denied access to hospital treatment by prison officials in Russia.
This file photo taken on May 24, 2022 in Moscow shows Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny appearing on a screen set up at a courtroom of the Moscow City Court via a video link from his prison colony during a hearing of an appeal against his nine-year prison sentence he was handed in March 2022 after being found guilty of embezzlement and contempt of court.
Navalny “is in urgent need of medical assistance as numerous Russian doctors have pointed out. We call on the Russian authorities to provide this immediately and completely,” said government spokeswoman Christiane Hoffmann.
