On the birthday of opposition leader Alexei Navalny, his supporters are going to hold a worldwide rally in support of him. This is the third birthday he will spend in prison.
“On June 4 at 14:00, go out to the main squares of your cities, wherever you are, in whatever country you are, go out to support Navalny,” Navalny’s associates said in a video message.
Navalny's team separately called for people who live in Russia to join the action: “We are grateful to everyone who will take part. And especially for those who dare to go out into the streets in Russia. As always, we are ready to provide legal support and pay fines to anyone who needs it.”
On May 11, Navalny was sent to the ShIZO for the fifteenth time. “For me, the iron rule of prisons, which was sacredly observed both in the USSR and in Russia, was canceled: after a “tag” in ShIZO, a convict must be “raised” to the zone for at least a day before being given another “tag”. Broke the system. True, in the wrong direction, ”he said.
On April 26, Navalny said during a meeting in the Basmanny Court of Moscow that a criminal case was opened against him on terrorism, separating him from the extremism case, in which he faces up to 30 years in prison, and later life imprisonment.
