"I am your new Santa Claus.
Well, I now have a sheepskin coat, an ushanka hat (a fur hat with ear-covering flaps), and soon I will get valenki (a traditional Russian winter footwear). I have grown a beard for the 20 days of my transportation.
Unfortunately, there are no reindeer, but there are huge fluffy, and very beautiful shepherd dogs."
“ Yulia Navalnaya shared her first post on the platform Monday, and less than 24 hours later her account had been suspended for supposedly “violating the X rules. It was not immediately clear which rules she was accused of violating, but #Navalny’s allies have called on #X owner Elon #Musk to explain the move.”
"You are dealing not with a politician but with a bloody mafiosi. Putin is the head of an organized criminal group....The political innovation is that the methods that need to be used are ones used to fight organized crime, not political competition. #AureFreePress#News#press#headline#Ukraine#Russia#Navalny
#Biden: "Make no mistake -- #Putin is responsible for #Navalny's death. Putin is responsible. What has happened to Navalny is yet more proof of Putin's brutality. Nobody should be fooled."
Maria Pevchikh said the #Russian opposition leader was going to be exchanged for Vadim Krasikov, a Russian hitman who is serving a life sentence for murder in Germany.
Two US citizens currently held in Russia were also going to be part of the deal, Ms Pevchikh claimed.
She added that negotiations were at their final stage on 15 February.
Thousands around the church where #Navalny 's coffin has been taken to chant his name, chant 'we won't forgive', 'we won't give up', 'we won't surrender', "You were not afraid, and we are not afraid"
#Navalny in the #BBC Storyville documentary:
(in the case of my death) "i have something very obvious to tell you: do not give up, you are not allowed to give up. if they decided to kill me it means we are incredibly strong. We need to utilise this power, to not give up, to remember we are a huge power that is being opressed by these bad dudes. we dont realise how strong we actually are. the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good people to do nothing. so don't do nothing"
