Давайте расскажу, как идёт мое восстановление.

Это уже ясная дорога, хоть и неблизкая.

Все текущие проблемы вроде того, что телефон в моих руках бесполезен, как камень, а налить себе водички превращается в целый аттракцион - сущая ерунда.

Объясню.

Совсем недавно я не узнавал людей и не понимал, как разговаривать.

Каждое утро ко мне приходил доктор и говорил: Алексей, я принёс доску, давайте приходил доктор и говорил, какое вна.

Это приводило меня в отчаяние, потому что хоть я уже и понимал в целом, что хочаят доктор, пл, вите боктор, пло вите сроне сроне сроне.

В каком месте головы они возникают?

Где найти слово и как сделать так, чтобы оно что-то означало?

Все это было решительно непонятно.

Впрочем, как выразить своё отчаяние, я тоже не знал и поэтому просто молчал.

И это я еще описываю поздний этап, который сам помню.

Сейчас я парень, у которого дрожат ноги, когда он идёт по лестнице, но зато он думает: «о, аесто жицто

По ней поднимаются.

Пожалуй, надо поискать лифт ».

А раньше бы просто тупо стоял и смотрел.

Так что много проблем ещё предстоит решить, но потрясающие врачи университетской «» Берлинской кой Берлинской Берлинской Берлинской Берлинской Биниверситетской "Берлинской Берки Берлинской Берлинской Берлинской" Берлинской "Берлинской" Берлинской "Берлинской" Берлинской [

Они превратили меня из «технически живого человека» в того, кто имеет все шансы снова стать Высшей Формой Существа Современного Общества - человеком, который умеет быстро листать инстаграм и без размышлений понимает, где ставить лайки.

He said that he was getting better and better, but that the way was still long.

It is true that "it becomes a spectacle every time", for example when he drinks.

But apparently he is joking again: "Now I'm a guy whose legs tremble when he takes the stairs," he wrote.

But at least it is possible for him to recognize a staircase again.

"I would have stared at it before".

Now he knew that he'd better find an elevator.

He thanked the

that he now had "every chance" of being able to

Откуда взялась злосчастная бутылка?

Давайте объясним, откуда взялось то, про что нам непрерывно задают вопросы.

Так называемая "бутылка с« Новичком "" ну, а точнее, обычная пластиковая бутылка из-под воды, на которой потом в немецкой лаборатории обнаружили следы боевого отравляющего вещества.

Это бутылка из номера в томской гостинице, где останавливался сам Навальный и вся наша съемочнапя.

Перенесемся обратно в 20 августа.

В этот день часть нашей команды улетела в Москву, часть осталась в Томске доделывать видео.

В полете Алексей потерял сознание и начал задыхаться, самолёт экстренно сел.

Почти сразу сотрудники ФБК, которые остались в Томске, узнали о случившемся.

В этот момент была сделана единственно возможная вещь.

Open to the public

В том числе, и бутылки из-под гостиничной воды.

Как это происходило, вы можете посмотреть на этом видео.

Никакой особой надежды что-то такое обнаружить не было.

Но поскольку нам было абсолютно ясно, что Навальный не "слегка заболел" не "перегрелся" и Рафаэлкой здесь не поможешь, было решено забрать все, что может хоть как-то гипотетически пригодиться, и передать это врачам в Германии.

То, что дело расследовать в России не будут, тоже было достаточно очевидно.

Так и вышло: прошел почти месяц, Россия так и не признала отравление Алексея.

Спустя две недели именно на бутылке из томского номера немецкая лаборатория обнаружила следчы "Новила следчы".

А потом еще три лаборатории, которые брали анализы у Алексея, подтвердили, что Навальный был. Амел амел.

Теперь мы понимаем: это было сделано до того, как он покинул свой номер, чтобы поехать в аэропорт.

Сегодня в 20.00 в передаче "Россия Будущего" на ютюб-канале Навальный LIVE Георгий Албуров @alburov расскаджет.

Navalny case: Merkel government announces poisoning - relationship with Putin strained

According

to investigations in a

the

sees it

as unequivocally proven that the 44-year-old was

poisoned

with the

.

Two other laboratories in 

and

confirmed this.

The case is

now

putting a considerable strain on relations between

and

*.

Germany has now passed the final result of the investigation to the

.

However, this should not be an obstacle to the establishment of bilateral cooperation, said the Russian Foreign Ministry and went on to say: "The Russian side confirmed its willingness to cooperate." However, Moscow is still waiting for a reaction from the responsible authorities in Germany.

In the following the Instagram post

translated

from

into German:

 “This is followed by an explanation of the questions that we have been asked all the time in the past few days.

Especially about the bottle with 'Novitschok', an ordinary plastic bottle with water on which traces of the chemical warfare agent were later found in a German laboratory.

The bottle came from a room in a hotel in Tomsk, where Navalny and his entire film crew stayed, on August 20 when part of the team flew back to Moscow.

Some stayed back in Tomsk to finish the video.

During the flight, Navalny passed out and began to choke.

The pilot then tried to land immediately.

Almost at the same time, the FBK employees who remained in Tomsk learned of the incident.

They reacted very quickly.

They called a lawyer and went to Navalny’s hotel room to record, describe and package everything they found, including the bottle of water.

You can see exactly how that happened in the video.

The hope of finding something was not particularly great.

It was clear to us, however, that Navalny was not 'easily ill' or 'overheated'.

Rafaelka couldn't help either.

So we hypothetically decided to hand over useful things to the doctors in Germany.

It was immediately clear to us that the case would not have been investigated in Russia.

And so it happened - even after a month Russia did not recognize the poisoning of Navalny.

Two weeks after the incident, the German laboratory found traces of 'Novitschok' on the bottle from Tomsk.

Three other laboratories then confirmed that Alexei had been poisoned as a result.

We now also realize that Navalny was poisoned before he left for the airport.

More details will be revealed today at 8 p.m. in the 'Russia of the Future' program on the YouTube channel Navalny LIVE. "
