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
doctors
that he now had "every chance" of being able to
post
independently on
again soon
.
After Navalny poisoning: Russia speaks of “limited possibilities” for the investigation
Update from September 18, 5.15 p.m
.:
Kremlin spokesman Dmitri Peskov
stated that
Russia
only had "limited" opportunities
to investigate
the
poisoning
of
opposition activist Alexei Navalny
.
“Unfortunately, we are limited in our ability to conduct any investigation.
As it turns out, objects were brought out of
Russia
and we have no access to the analyzes, ”said
Peskov
on Friday.
Nawalny's
employees had announced the day before that they had brought any evidence to
Germany
.
This includes the
water bottle
from a hotel in Tomsk.
Navalny
had stayed there before he was poisoned.
A German laboratory has since found traces of the
neurotoxin
Novitschok
on the water bottle
.
"If this bottle actually exists, why was it put somewhere?" Asked the
Kremlin spokesman
.
"Maybe there are people who don't want an investigation?" The only way to solve the case is by sharing information and evidence and "working together if necessary."
Update September 18, 12:54
: The
Kremlin
has doubts about new evidence
(see original message)
for a
poisoning
of the opposition
Alexei Navalny *
already in
Russia
.
His team had previously reported that
traces of the neurotoxin
Novichok
had been found
on a
water bottle
in Navalny's hotel room in Siberia
.
"The story contains too much absurdity to take someone's word," said Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov on Friday in Moscow
, according to the
Interfax agency
.
"We cannot clear this up because the bottle, if it was, was
brought
abroad
- to
Germany
or elsewhere," said Peskow.
What was supposed to be evidence of poisoning was taken away.
"Toxicologists say that a bottle with traces of a chemical warfare agent cannot just be brought anywhere."
In Moscow there have recently been repeated allegations that Navalny may
have been poisoned
after his departure
and not in Russia.
According to their own account, Russian doctors had found no evidence of poisoning.
Peskov said that information could only be obtained if Germany made the
results of the investigation available to
Russia.

Russia's head of parliament: Navalny case should be an issue in the Bundestag
Update from September 18, 12:07 p.m
.: Russia's head of parliament
Vyacheslav Volodin
has called on the
Bundestag
in Berlin to start a new debate on the case of the poisoned Kremlin critic
Alexej
Navalny
.
It should be discussed to what extent
own secret services
and officials were involved in the event, he said on Friday in Moscow.
"It would be right if parliaments of other European countries were also to deal with this topic." The Bundestag had already discussed the case in a
current hour
.
Volodin claimed that
Western intelligence agencies
had poisoned the opposition.
The
state media
in Moscow are spreading the version of a
plot by
the West against Russia to
impose sanctions
on
the country again
.
The background to Volodin's statement is a resolution of the
EU Parliament
in Brussels on Thursday.
In it the parliamentarians called for an immediate international investigation.
In addition, the EU should reconsider its relations with Russia and the country should
remain
isolated
in
international forums
.
Volodin sharply criticized this in the State Duma statement: "If there are concepts such as democracy, international law and justice for Western countries, they must take responsibility for those who initiate such decisions in the European Parliament."
Sanctions debate in the Navalny case: Eastern heads of government want to stick to Nord Stream 2
Update of 18 September, 6:38
: The government of the
eastern German states
lean information of the
image
a
stop
of the Baltic Sea pipeline
Nord Stream 2
in response to the
case Navalny
from.
The newspaper quotes from a joint proposal for a resolution that “a construction freeze and suspension of the Nord Stream 2 project is not an appropriate response”.
This should be decided on Friday.
The East Prime Ministers are therefore calling for a “complete clarification” in the case of the poisoned
Kremlin critic Alexej Navalny
and also stressing that this is
“not an exclusive German matter”
.
Investigations in a Bundeswehr laboratory showed that he was
poisoned
with a
nerve agent from
the
Novitschok
group.
The process creates considerable tension in the
German-Russian relationship
.
While the German government is demanding clarification from Moscow, the Russian side rejects any responsibility.
In the debate about
sanctions against Russia
, some calls for Nord Stream 2 to be stopped.
Russian gas is to be delivered directly to Germany through the pipeline.
Navalny poisoning: team publishes explosive details and video from hotel - "Bottle not source of poison"
Update from September 17, 8:24 p.m.:
Georgij Alburow and other employees of the poisoned Kremlin critic
Alexej Navalny
were among the people who searched his hotel room after the crime.
There they looked for evidence of the attack on the Russian opposition activist.
Traces of the poison Novichok could later be found on a plastic bottle from which Navalny drank.
But now the
Navalny team came
to a new understanding of the exact circumstances.
“The bottle was probably not the source of the poison,” said Alburow, who works for Navalny's anti-corruption foundation, on
YouTube
on Thursday evening
.
"Navalny only drank from it, later traces of the poison were found on the bottle."
Navalny poisoning: Kremlin critic's team accuses Russian police of inaction
Nevertheless, the plastic bottle is proof that Navalny's poisoning must have taken place in the hotel.
In order to be able to prove this, so Alburow, one wanted to view the footage of the
recordings of the surveillance cameras of
the hotel.
However, the
hotel management
should not have allowed this.
In the course of this, Alburov accused the authorities of inaction: “The police monitored every step of Aleksei Navalny and now they have the videos from the surveillance cameras from the hotel.
And what do you do with it?
Nothing."

Navalny's team stressed on
on Thursday

collapsed on a flight in Russia about four weeks ago.
His
health
has now improved.
On Tuesday he spoke up for the first time.

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
special
Bundeswehr
laboratory,
the
federal
government
sees it
as unequivocally proven that the 44-year-old was
poisoned
with the
warfare agent Novichok
.
Two other laboratories in
France
and
Sweden
confirmed this.
The case is
now
putting a considerable strain on relations between
Berlin
and
Moscow
*.
Germany has now passed the final result of the investigation to the
Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW)
.
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
Russian
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. "

Navalny case: Russia calls on Germany to cooperate
Meanwhile, Russia has
warned
Germany against further
politicizing
the case.
At the same time,
Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov called
on Tuesday in a phone call with his German colleague
Heiko Maas (SPD)
Berlin again for direct cooperation.
"We cannot be satisfied with references to the" independence "of the judiciary and the need for coordination with A. Navalny himself or his relatives and confidants," said the Russian Foreign Ministry in Moscow.
It referred to corresponding previous agreements on mutual legal assistance in criminal matters.
