Several thousand Russians braved fear and the cold to pay their last respects to Alexeï Navalny. The opponent of Vladimir Putin died in a prison in the Arctic Circle in murky circumstances.
Several people (45 according to an NGO) were arrested throughout Russia for having demonstrated their attachment to him. “I don't know how to live without you, but I will try to make sure that you are up there, happy for me and proud of me,” his widow, Yulia Navalnaïa, wrote on Instagram.
