The well-known Russian government critic Alexej Navalny had to be treated for possible poisoning in Germany. Now his condition has apparently deteriorated so much that, according to his spokeswoman, he is no longer transportable.

The Kremlin critic was first taken to a hospital in the Siberian city of Omsk on Thursday and, according to the doctors, was in a coma. His spokeswoman Kira Jarmysch was convinced that the opposition party was "intentionally poisoned".
