Dear subscribers,
First, my apologies for missing our meeting last week (the nomination of Joe Biden has a good back ...).
Let's turn our eyes this week to Russia, where an astonishing character captures the attention: Alexeï Navalny, 44, survivor of an assassination attempt in Novichok, imprisoned upon his return to Russia in mid-January, and now the most visible opponent to Russian President Vladimir Putin.
“Putin's Palace”, the film released on social media after Navalny's arrest, has been viewed 100 million times.
