Navalny’s Novichok poisoning: Who can stand up to Russia? | 7 September 2020

By Sky News

Alexei Navalny is the most effective opposition that Vladimir Putin has ever had. He’s been posting videos online documenting alleged Kremlin corruption with millions of viewers, he’s been arrested 13 times for organising anti-Putin protests and then he was poisoned with Novichok.

Is this a coincidence? It’s hard to see how it could be.

But what can the international community do?

On the Sky News Daily podcast, Dermot Murnaghan is joined by friend of Navalny, Dr Sergei Guriev; Sky’s Moscow correspondent, Diana Magnay and chemical weapons expert, Hamish De Bretton Gordon.
