Description

Alexei Navalny was sent to one to die and American journalist Evan Gershkovich is being held in another. Our correspondent reports on the notorious brutality of Russia’s prisons. Without the right policies, undoing years of dependency on oil will take much longer than hoped (11:03 ). And a tribute to the Israeli luthier who restored violins from the Holocaust (18:53 ).
