Alexei Navalny’s widow, Yulia, has promised to continue in the path of her husband, which is to fight for a “free Russia.”.

In a video posted on Navalny’s YouTube channel on Monday, Ms. Navalny sought support from viewers for comradeship so they could share “the fury and hate for those who dared to kill our future.”.

Persecondnews recalls that Russia’s most significant opposition leader for the past decade, Alexei Navalny, died in prison inside the Arctic Circle.

Since his demise, the Russian government has yet to release the body of Navalny to the grieving wife and mother. Ms. Navalny said, “Attempts to locate the body have repeatedly been shut down by the prison mortuary and local authorities.”

In her video message, she claimed that “Vladimir Putin killed my husband, Alexei Navalny. Putin killed the father of my children. Putin took away the most important thing I had. The person who was closest to me and whom I loved most.”

She vowed to “continue to fight for our country; we need to use every opportunity to fight against the war, against corruption, and against injustice.

“To fight for fair elections and freedom of speech. To fight to take our country back. Russia, free, peaceful, happy, the beautiful Russia of the future, of which my husband dreamed so much.”

In the video, Ms. Navalnaya also said she knew “exactly why Putin killed Alexei three days ago” and promised to release the information “soon.”.
