Vladimir Putin’s highest profile critic, Alexei Navalny, is being transferred to hospital, amid fears he could be on the brink of death.<\/p>\n

The 44-year-old opposition leader has been on hunger strike in prison since March 31, with doctors warning he could “die at any moment”.<\/p>\n

\"Navalny-Supporters-Take-To-The-Streets-For-Second-Weekend-Putin-critic-Alexei-Navalny-taken-to-hospital-after-19-days-of-hunger-strike-protest-rapidnews\"<\/p>\n

Navalny last year survived being poisoned with Novichock, pointing the finger of blame at the Kremlin – an allegation supported by US intelligence networks.<\/p>\n

Russia is under mounting international pressure, with the US saying it will be “held accountable” if he dies.<\/p>\n

Putin is already embroiled in a diplomatic crisis over the build-up of troops on the border with Ukraine, with US warships deployed to the Black Sea amid fears of war in Europe.<\/p>\n

Navalny’s doctor, Yaroslav Ashikhmin, yesterday warned on\u00a0Facebook: “Our patient could die at any moment.”<\/p>\n

He said he and Anastasiya Vasilyeva, head of the Alliance of Doctors union, were refused entry to the prison in Pokrov where Navalny is being kept.<\/p>\n

Yesterday US US national security adviser Jake Sullivan warned there would be “consequences if Mr Navalny dies”, telling CNN that Russia would be “held accountable by the international community”.<\/p>\n

Navalny’s allies said at the weekend his life was hanging by a thread, and announced plans for what they hope will be the largest protests in modern Russian history on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Navalny has said prison authorities are threatening to put him in a straitjacket to force-feed him.<\/p>\n

The EU’s top diplomat, Josep Borrell, said: “We make the Russian authorities responsible for the health situation of Mr Navalny.”<\/p>\n

Manfred Weber, who lead’s the European Parliament’s biggest grouping, the European People’s Party, said: “Act now, or the blood of Mr Navalny will forever be on your hands.”<\/p>\n

\n

Russian authorities accuse him of exaggerating his medical condition to grab attention, and of refusing prison medical care.<\/p>\n

They have pledged to ensure he survives.<\/p>\n

Navalny travelled to Germany last August for treatment after being poisoned by a nerve agent in an attack he blamed on Putin.<\/p>\n

The Kremlin has said it has seen no evidence he was poisoned and has denied any Russian role if he was.<\/p>\n

He was arrested in January when he returned to Russia and jailed for two-and-a-half years in February for parole violations he said were fabricated.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
