Yeah the point about the hospital over my right shoulder is that it is leading a world renowned leading hospital with us particular specialism in treating patients who present with the sorts of symptoms and condition that we understand mr nardelli has been suffering since his ordeal began in midair on that flight in russia just a few days ago he handsfree of the plan had been for him to fly to the shannon found airport which is some way are so good in the event the pilots decided to fly to the table at all which is much closer to this area of Central Plains where its a hospital is so we can expect that he will be making his way all that the convoy he will be possibly making its way to the hospital pretty soon and when he gets there its clear that the officials there the medics there they want to establish exactly whats in his system how bad his condition is whats in his system and then of course the questions which will flow from that how did whats in his system get certainly questions like that being asked by many different european leaders not least of which the german chancellor Angela Merkel in the course of the last 3648 hours so lots of questions being asked of a political level but then from the practical medical level also by the doctors and nurses who are waiting to receive mr knob on the in the building over my right shoulder the shot at a hospital here in berlin dominic came for us on the ground and balun with all the latest thank you dominick well lets now cross over to moscow alexandra strand of thats gone as a journalist and she joins us from there alexandra so much speculation of on his condition and also the delay isnt even getting him to balance but the kremlin is sticking to its lines. You know after fighting tooth and nail or requesting pleading and demanding for him to be transferred his family is for sure relieved and hopeful that now he will get right help and that hes away from that hospital that was at certain point filled with the secret Service People theyre left wondering indeed what happened to him and why this delay was its really to actually wait for any toxin that was in his body to be removed the doctors up on the signing this bill finally last night they repeated that there is the risks and they kept on saying its not poison in which act for that he was not boys and he was initially admitted to with the preliminary the diagnosis of coma of our non origin possible poisoning the now it is according to russian doctors metabolic disorder as for official reaction one should not expect too much since the official stand was from the beginning that now finally is like any other russian citizen they wish him well they wish him speedy recovery and as any russian citizen he will get help and assistance that he needs and this was voiced by the russian president s spokesperson known to be a person a bit russian president Vladimir Putin never mentioned by name even when he referred to this is what we can expect actually to wish him a speedy recovery this however leaves us with the question what happened actually 2 days ago to alexina why me why is in such a deep coma and was there a poisoning and we will be staying across that story for you that alexandra story out of it called for for us in moscow thanks so much alexandra.
