Episode Description
More on the Navalny case, the story that keeps unfolding, following the publication of his conversation with one of his would-be killers, and a rumination on whether there will be implications for the FSB and its approach.

You can read the Navalny conversation here, and the article I mention by Soldatov and Borogan here.
