The daughter of jailed Russian opposition figure Alexey Navalny says her father's health is deteriorating. Speaking to CNN's Jim Acosta on Saturday from the White House Correspondent's Dinner, Dasha Navalnaya described the situation as "incredibly difficult." "He is doing as well as he can do in a Russian prison which doesn't have the best conditions," she said. When asked by Acosta about her thoughts on the imprisonment of Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich in a Russian prison, Navalnya said that it "didn't come as a surprise." "I'm very sorry for his family and that he can't be home to his kids and he's stuck in a Russian prison," she said.
