A Russian " " court " " on Friday issued its verdict in a new case against jailed opposition leader Alexey Navalny, convicting the politician of promoting “extremism” and extending his time in prison by 19 years, according to Russian state media and his own team.
Yet we won’t hear about people like Ousmane Sonko and so many more, including in Ukraine, just today Saïd Boukioud was condemned to 5 years of jail in Morocco, and Julian Assange has been persecuted for more than a decade for wanting to keep us accountable/transparent(, as well as at least dozens of whistleblowers). Piotr Pavlenski was celebrated by french medias when he denounced the russian “regime”, but condemned by the same medias when he did the same things in France. We simply wouldn’t hear&support A.Navalny if Russia was our ally, thats all.
Just in(, an hour ago) : Imran Khan has been condemned to three years of jail ! Will you complain ?
And Juan Branco.A country authorizing opponents/diversity outside&inside its borders is undoubtedly better than a country forbidding them inside&outside. It’s harder to compare between a country forbidding diversity outside its borders and another forbidding it only on its territory.
A real union in diversity would cancel any possible international insecurity of a given country, but not directly its potential royalist/authoritarian tendencies since it’d allow their difference(, however, their inhabitants don’t need to be saved by ©overt operations, because the proximity of free people will elicit a desire of change in their own country, as long as this country doesn’t protect itself from our proximity like we protected ourselves from socialist examples ; being united means being informed of the other ways of living, and desiring what we lack, it also means ‘working for our species instead of our nations’/‘loving/helping other countries as much as we love/help our own inhabitants’).Damn shame. He would have been one hell of an upgrade over Putin.
Lol you’re brain damaged.
Good riddance
Navalny advised Ukrainians not to deceive themselves: “Crimea will remain part of Russia and will never become part of Ukraine again in the foreseeable future”.
He also said that when he becomes president of the Russian Federation, he will not return the semi-island to Kyiv: “Crimea is what, a sandwich with sausage to be returned here and there?”, - Navalny asked.
Fuck Putin, fuck Navalny & fuck Russia in general.
Putin and Russia are much preferable to the scum of the western fascist Navalny
Uh that seems like a pretty absolutist world view. You can simultaneously think that the invasion of Ukraine is terrible, and care that a Russian man is being jailed for nearly twenty years by a kangaroo court.
He’s a Russian politician, I could care less about what happens to him, especially after reading his previous views on Crimea.
His views on Crimea are the only correct thing he has said
Do you have a source?
At least a quick search on my side does not bring up anything in support of your statement.Edited post.

Navalny isn’t a good “replacement” for Putin IMO.
Yeah
He’s better than Putin in that a turd sandwich is better than a firehose full of raw sewage to the face
But honestly, if someone put him in power, I’m 50/50 over whether he would just become the next Russian dictator
50/50? I feel like there’s a 90% chance they will be and I think that’s a conservative estimate.
I think him being concerned with the economics of a war rather than the ethics of it are telling. However here is a quote from Navalny in March. Seems like he is somewhat on a middle ground. Not sure what to think of him.
Navalny wrote that Ukraine’s borders are “similar to Russia’s—[they were] internationally recognized and defined in 1991.” All of the areas of Ukraine that the Kremlin has supposedly “annexed” are, by right and by law, still Ukrainian, including Crimea.Mar 2, 2023
And in 2014 he said:
Navalny advised Ukrainians not to deceive themselves: “Crimea will remain part of Russia and will never become part of Ukraine again in the foreseeable future”.
He also said that when he becomes president of the Russian Federation, he will not return the semi-island to Kyiv: “Crimea is what, a sandwich with sausage to be returned here and there?”, - Navalny asked.
I’m not calling you a liar, but maybe misinformed.
Russia’s prominent jailed opposition figure Alexei Navalny has lost an appeal against a nine-year prison term, but not before launching a scathing attack on the war in Ukraine.
Condemning Vladimir Putin’s war as stupid, he said it was “like your courts, built entirely on lies”.“You will suffer a historic defeat in this stupid war that you started. It has no purpose or meaning. Why are we fighting a war?” he said.
He’s against it now because it’s showing Russia as the alcoholic morons they are.
