Russian opposition politician and anti-corruption activist, Alexei Navalny, is breathing again independently and is slowly recovering. Last month, Navalny was poisoned while in Russia, and later, German toxicology experts determined that a nerve agent called Novichok was used in an apparent attempt to kill the opposition leader. Navalny is still recovering in a hospital in Berlin, but he says he plans on returning to Russia. The World’s Marco Werman speaks with Russian investigative reporter Andrei Soldatov about the latest.
