Alexéi Navalni

Lyudmila Navalnaya, who has been trying to get his body since Saturday, appeared in a video outside the Arctic penal colony where Navalny died on Friday

Yulia Navalnaya’s statement on Monday came as authorities denied Navalny’s mother access to a morgue where his body is believed to be held after his death last week at an Arctic penal colony

The Munich Security Conference has highlighted the broken global order in which Russia, China, Iran and North Korea are closing ranks. ‘The question is whether democracy will survive,’ says the president of the European Commission

Thousands of individuals laid flowers at monuments to the victims of political repression throughout the country after the death of the well-known activist. The police have dispersed some of the spontaneous acts

Russian authorities have opened at least 883 criminal cases against dissidents since the start of the Ukraine invasion. The repression not only extends to the democratic opposition, but also to sectors favorable to the war but dissatisfied with the president and the military leadership

‘Let there be no doubt: Putin is responsible,’ Biden said. European leaders such as Von der Leyen, Macron and Scholz also pointed the finger at the Russian government

On the same Munich stage where Putin delivered his famous 2007 speech announcing his rejection of the current world order, the dissident’s partner urged the international community to fight against the Russian regime

The details of what happened to President Vladimir Putin’s key political challenger, Alexei Navalny, who died in an Arctic prison colony on Friday, are unknown

The best-known opponent internationally of Vladimir Putin’s regime spent years uncovering corruption scandals among Russia’s elite

The Federal Prison Service said in a statement that Navalny felt unwell after a walk on Friday and lost consciousness

With most opposition politicians either in jail or in exile abroad president Vladimir Putin is almost certain to win his fifth term in office in the election

Sergei Udaltsov is the leader of the Left Front, a group of political parties that oppose Putin and are affiliated with the Communist Party

The Russian opposition leader was transferred in December to the ‘special regime’ penal colony in Kharp — the highest security level of prisons in Russia

His spokesperson says Navalny is ‘doing well’ and a lawyer has visited him. His team had been unable to reach him since December 6

Putin’s fiercest foe had multiple hearings scheduled, some of which were suspended since the unknown location of the politician precluded his participation

Navalny, who is serving a 19-year term on charges of extremism, was due to appear in court Monday via video link but didn’t

Imprisoned opposition leader Alexei Navalny said in a statement relayed by his team that “no one but us will step into this battle for the hearts and the minds of our fellow citizens”

Under constitutional reforms he orchestrated, Putin is eligible to seek two more six-year terms after his current term expires next year, potentially allowing him to remain in power until 2036

The activist sees no end to the unrelenting authoritarianism and repression in her country

The 47-year-old is already serving more than 30 years in prison after being found guilty of crimes including extremism — charges that his supporters characterize as politically motivated

A number of Navalny associates have faced extremism-related charges. His supporters see it as a deliberate Kremlin strategy to silence its most ardent opponent

The move was an attempt to ‘completely isolate Navalny,’ his ally Ivan Zhdanov said on social media. President Vladimir Putin’s fiercest foe has been behind bars since January 2021

Navalny, who is already serving a nine-year term on a variety of charges that he says were politically motivated, is President Vladimir Putin’s fiercest foe

Navalny is serving a nine-year sentence for fraud and contempt of court — charges he says are politically motivated

Navalny has said that the new extremism charges which he rejected as “absurd” could keep him in prison for another 30 years

On Thursday, a court in Moscow ordered to liquidate the Sova Center, a prominent non-governmental organization that monitors racism and xenophobia in Russia, as well as implementation of anti-extremism laws

Navalny said Wednesday that he was facing new extremism and terrorism charges, as authorities set the stage for a new trial against the Kremlin’s leading critic
