Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Navalny's Widow Vows to Run for Russian Presidency After Putin's Era
Caption: Navalny’s Widow Vows to Run for Russian Presidency After Putin's Era. Yulia Navalnaya, widow of the late opposition leader Alexei Navalny, has told the BBC she plans to run for president of Russia. Her decision mirrors the clarity with which she and her husband approached their political choices. Navalnaya acknowledges that returning to Russia while President Putin remains in power could lead to her arrest, as she faces accusations of extremism. Alexei Navalny, known as Putin’s most vocal critic, died in a penal colony in the Arctic Circle after being sentenced to 19 years for extremism—charges widely seen as politically motivated. While Russia denies involvement, President Biden directly blamed Putin for Navalny's death. Now, as she promotes Patriot, a memoir her husband was working on, Navalnaya vows to continue his fight for democracy aiming to challenge Putin’s regime and prepare for a future with free elections.
