Alexei Navalny is dead. Long live the Navalnys: After the death of the Russian opposition figure, his wife Julia quickly declared herself his successor. His brother is also targeted by the authorities. The Kremlin stands at attention.
“Just a few years ago, Alexei Navalny mobilized tens of thousands of people across the country to demonstrate. After his death, there is dead silence in Putin’s empire.” This describes it star-Russia reporter Bettina Sengling the situation just a few days after the death of the Kremlin critic.
So far there has only been one Navalny who has attacked Moscow’s autocrat, but now there could be three. Because Alexei’s death in installments and the hiding of his body make the mother and his wife go to the barricades. Brother Oleg is now also being targeted by the Russian authorities.
