Kremlin Defender Sergey Markov Discusses Navalny Sentence

A Moscow court has sentenced Alexey Navalny to 2.5 years in jail for breaking the terms of his parole. Today the Russian opposition leader ridiculed the verdict, given that when he left the country for Germany, he was in a coma after having been poisoned with Novichok in August. He blames President Putin for the poisoning, which the Kremlin denies. Sergey Markov joins the program to discuss.
