In their article in The Lancet, the Berlin doctors described how Navalny had to be ventilated and given drugs during his airlift to Germany. Navalny was treated with atropine for 10 days and given other antibiotics by the hospital doctors, who said he started to breathe spontaneously within two weeks. The medics published detailed technical findings about the effects of Novichok poisoning, which was established by a German military lab in September. Konstantin Kudryavtsev was one of a team of alleged chemical weapons experts named last week as suspects in Navalny's poisoning. The European Court of Human Rights has ruled that Russia's arrests and detention of Navalny in 2012 and 2014 were politically motivated.
