“We know why Putin killed Alexei three days ago,” Yulia Navalnaya said Monday.
Yulia Navalnaya, wife of late Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny, accused Russian President Vladimir Putin of being involved her husband’s death and vowed on Monday to continue his work.
“We know why Putin killed Alexei three days ago, we will tell you about it soon,” she said in a video message. “But the main thing we can do for Alexei and for ourselves is to continue to fight. I will continue the work of Alexei Navalny, continue to fight for our country, and I urge you to stand next to me.”
Navalny, a long-time Russian opposition politician and critic of the Kremlin and Russian President Vladimir Putin died in prison at age 47 on Friday, the state prison service said.
Good. We need more people like her husband.
Rabid nationalists who call people from other races cockroaches?
Haha ok bud.
Seriously, have you watched anything this man says in Russian? His English PR team is great, you’d never know he frequently called for the murder of minorities.
The only PR team you listen to is Roskomnadzor.
More radical assholes than even Putin? I’m all about Putin’s shit getting kicked in, but Navalny and folks like him are not a solution we should explore. I’m sick of people glorifying both of those assholes. Defending Navalny is like defending solving your wasp problem with rabid badgers. I don’t want either in my home, and though the latter may solve the first, it’s going to create some much bigger problems
Please explain why you say what you say
They fell for the Russian disinformation campaign trying to paint Navalny as a far right nationalist and proponent of the Ukraine invasion, even though he repeatedly voiced his disapproval in recent years.
RT propaganda works it seems
far right nationalist and proponent of the Ukraine invasion
If that had been true, he’d have LOVED Putin ffs 🤦
it is true. he thought putin was not fascist enough.
Please don’t follow me around. This is harassment.
I am not following you at all but it won’t hurt my feelings if you block me.
Yeah right 🙄
In one of the videos, in which he advocates for gun rights, he compares militants from the Caucasus to cockroaches and mimics shooting one who attempts to “attack” him.
you don’t need to believe me but i hope you look into it.
Russian disinformation? Can you name a single policy that would have made Navalny a desirable outcome? You think he’d pull out of Ukraine?
In February 2022, Navalny compared the recognition of the Donetsk People’s Republic and the Luhansk People’s Republic by Russia to when Soviet leaders deployed troops to Afghanistan in 1979, describing both events as a distraction to the population from real issues. He said that he believes that while Putin will not allow Ukraine to develop, Russia will pay the same price, and that Putin needed to be removed to save Russia.
On 2 March 2022, Navalny urged Russian citizens to stage daily protests against Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, saying Russia should not be a “nation of frightened people” and “cowards who pretend not to notice the aggressive war” launched by “our insane tsar”.
If, to prevent war, we need to fill up the jails and police vans, we will fill up the jails and police vans. Everything has a price and now, in the spring of 2022, we should pay that price. — Alexei Navalny
Navalny would’ve been the preferable candidate in every regard. The list of reasons is literally too long to be summarized by a single comment.
Because the man is a racist, imperialist, fash piece of shit. It’s an unfortunate mentality when you figure there’s only two options here. There are a million better outcomes possible. Forgive me for not rooting for Pinochet to replace Pol Pot.
Dead people?
Though I agree with the intent. We need more people willing to stand up for what is right, even if it kills them.
Oh I agree. I don’t think I’d be able to do what he did, but it’s inspiring to see. And in the end if you want to have a positive impact on the world you have to do what you believe is right no matter what. And we can be 100% certain now that his motivations were selfless.
