(ANSA) - WASHINGTON, 09 SEPT - "The United States are deeply concerned about the escalation and arbitrary interference of the Russian government in the rights of Aleksey Navalny".
The spokesman for the US State Department, NedPrice, writes in a note.
These interferences, in addition to the fact that Vladimir Putin's opponent has been placed in isolation several times, are proof that it is "political maltreatment", it is still read in the note.
"We once again join Navalny's family, colleagues and supporters around the world in calling for his immediate release."
