BERLIN - As outspoken Russian opposition figure Alexei Navalny arrives in Germany for medical treatment, a small Berlin-based non-government organisation has been leading the charge to bring him from Siberia, where he was lying in a coma after a suspected poisoning.
It's not the first time the NGO has brought an apparently poisoned Kremlin critic to Germany: In 2018, it helped fly Mr Pyotr Verzilov, a member of the Russian punk band Pussy Riot, to Berlin. 'WE WORKED ALL NIGHT' "We worked all night to make this flight possible," Mr Bizilj said. "But it turned out a little bit differently from how we expected."
His goal was to"influence through films the perception and resolution of global social, political, and humanitarian challenges of our time - and especially to oppose war and terror".
