Moments ago, a strong message was issued by the mother of Alexei Navalny, following the mysterious death of her son in prison. She appealed directly to Vladimir Putin, stating that she has been unable to see her son for five days, has not been given his body, and is unaware of his whereabouts. She demanded that Putin intervene to allow her to finally see her son and receive his body for a proper burial.
In response to the situation, an Editor-in-Chief of a formerly independent TV station in Russia highlighted the bravery and fearlessness of Navalny as a vocal opponent of Putin. The Editor emphasized the suspicious circumstances surrounding Navalny's death, questioning why his body is being withheld if there is nothing to hide. The Editor suggested that the situation points towards a political murder orchestrated by Putin and his associates.
Regarding Putin's motivations and fears, the Editor noted that while Putin projects an image of not fearing anyone, his actions indicate otherwise. The lack of free elections, justice, and speech in Russia, as well as the need to operate from outside the country due to political pressures, demonstrate Putin's fear of truth and opposition. Navalny's ability to inspire and mobilize the Russian population was highlighted as a threat that led to his targeted assassination.
Despite the risks involved, the Editor acknowledged the bravery of Russian citizens who continue to protest and seek justice in the aftermath of Navalny's death. The Editor emphasized the strength and determination of the people in the face of adversity and the ongoing fight for accountability and change in Russia.
