Such bravery, I’m in awe #FreeNavalnyNow #freerussia
Anastasia Vasilyeva, an ally of Alexei Navalny, decided to play the piano while police raided her house along with other properties connected to the Kremlin critic

Mr. Aslund, as always, is correct on the best means for the US to defend #Navalny: provide evidence of Putin's wealth stashed in the West. Make the evidence plain and broadcast it worldwide. Russian income/wealth disparity is off the charts. Truth will damage Putin's standing.
The best defense the West can offer Navalny is full transparency of Putin's & his cronies assets, which are located primarily in the US & the UK. It is likely to be a quarter of a trillion of dollars. The top priority of Western intelligence should be to locate & publicize it.

Putin, who has never mentioned #Navalny by name in public, is forced to confront the $1 billion palace issue. Predictably, he claims it's not his and he never had a palace. Yep. FSB & FSO (Russian Secret Service) are guarding a private businessman's dacha with a no-fly zone, sure

Navalny will be free. Russia will be free. 🇷🇺 xitter.cf/guilfanr/status/135294…
Protests reach Kazan, #Tatarstan, which usually tries to keep off the federal agenda with strict control over regional opposition. #Navalny #navalnyprotests

To Putin's trolls screaming at me to "shut up", stop meddling in my/our internal affairs! I'm sitting in California, writing in English, on an American platform. You are invading my/our sovereignty with your vile, threatening tweets! :)

#Navalny's video on #Putin's Palace in Gelendzhik on Black Sea coast has received 66 million views. Kremlin spox vehemently denies Putin has anything to do with it but also declines to say who does own it. C'mon, man. They know who owns it and could certainly say so.

#Russia People have gathered outside the prison where @navalny is held chanting, “Lioha, go out!” wanting #Navalny to be released. They were immediately detained by law enforcement. Journalists were beaten and detained, including my amazing friends and colleagues

From Vladivostok to Kaliningrad (10 000 km in between), from towns, Siberia like Irkuts to southern Sochi came to the streets. There are not enough independent media outside Moscow to know in details the mood there, yet it's telling #Navalny google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid…

Putin could have simply ignored Navalny’s return, but he instead had him arrested as soon as he stepped off the plane, which only proves how threatening Navalny is to Putin’s rule trib.al/K4TiioI

Putin’s arrest and detention of @navalny is outrageous but all too predictable. I continue to be amazed at the courage of reformers in Russia who stand up to Putin and his thugs, and I urge a strong and effective response by the Biden administration.

With its head @navalny now jailed @fbkinfo posts its biggest ever investigation into "Putin's palace" near Gelendzhik. Floorplans seem to suggest it's the biggest home in Russia, with wine cave, theater, gym, pool, "aquadisco" & hockey rink, & cost $1.35bn palace.navalny.com

The corruption and lawlessness of the Putin regime continues to be on full display for the world to see. The detention of Navalny is yet another shameless attempt by Putin to silence the Russian people’s fight for freedom and democracy. The U.S must hold him accountable.
Defying international pressure, Russian court rules Alexei Navalny can be held in custody for another 30 days wapo.st/2LYCjdg
