The widow of Russian dissident Alexei Navalny, who died in a Russian prison on February 16, said today she was unfazed by the Kremlin’s criticism of her for crude statements blaming Vladimir Putin for her husband’s death.
“The way the killer’s representative comments on my statements leaves me indifferent. Hand over Alexei’s body and let us bury him with dignity, don’t prevent the world from saying goodbye to him,” Yulia Navalnaya wrote on the X (formerly Twitter) social network.
Russia’s supreme leader for more than 20 years has not spoken publicly about Navalny’s death, but the Kremlin denies any involvement and says an investigation is underway to find out what happened.

“Don’t recognize this election”
Putin is expected to be re-elected in March and win another six-year term in power. Navalny’s widow calls on the West not to recognize the results of these elections.
At the meeting of the 27 foreign ministers in Brussels yesterday, Monday 19/02, Yulia Navalnaya asked the European Union to refuse to recognize the March presidential elections in Russia, in a step that sharply escalates her campaign against Vladimir Putin.
“Don’t recognize this election. A president who murders his main political opponent cannot be legal by definition,” he stressed.
