Moscow:
Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny gave a more than two-hour video interview to a prominent Russian blogger on YouTube, his first video appearance since being released from a Berlin hospital.
Navalny, 44, said his health had improved a lot and doctors were surprised at the speed of his recovery, but his hands were shaking considerably and he was undergoing physical therapy. The YouTube interview was dated Monday.
Navalny has emerged from a coma in recent weeks after collapsing on a domestic flight in Russian Siberia in August. He was flown to Berlin for treatment and German doctors say he was poisoned with Novichok, a rare Russian nerve agent.
