The message came hours after a senior German security official told The New York Times that Mr. Navalny was awake, alert and had spoken to a German prosecutor but was refusing to cooperate with a Russian inquiry into his case. He also vowed, according to the official, to return to Russia as soon as possible to continue his work. | The message came hours after a senior German security official told The New York Times that Mr. Navalny was awake, alert and had spoken to a German prosecutor but was refusing to cooperate with a Russian inquiry into his case.
