that he has no information on the reasons of alex they, nevada needs death. and that doctors would be looking into that. so that's kind of an indirect confirmation, at least from the russian authorities. and when it comes to nevada, these allies, they say that they're waiting for independent confirmation that the families of nobody's family has not been notified officially yet. and they say that nobody's lawyer is on the way to that penal colony in the ark, just to confirm his staff and really stay with though there's lots more to talk about. but before we do that, um let's say the volume is wife julia has been speaking of them, unix accounted to conference. she says, if the reports about her husband's death are confirmed, then the responsibility would be on russian president vladimir putin. the nobody especially in the place. sure. hello. thank you very much for

that was trudy. a sense of salt key and it's really very rare to have such emotional moments. but the whole event is sausage with the coastal force getting the head of the m s. c mentioning referring to the death of nevada and the then we heard music from actually a, a of the best you said devonne. it is a group of musicians of both a palestinian and is really so bridges being built. and at the same time, there was this shocking news crossing into this gathering what russia is not invited. and there are reasons for that because there is a sense amongst, well, the to, as well, that's talking to russia only make sense in a very limited scope, as they did not want to present a world stage or 2 russian, a russian take on the history in the making here, and depending on who you last february, some on this saying that they felt this was not an accident. i spoke to the child

eclipse through the may a key of who said, well, he was killed. that's the show. and also more than insinuating that the timing of this was deliberate at the same time coming to harris us vice president to you also still being cautious like the widow of nevada, the herself still seeking real confirmation and evidence that some of all the is indeed dead and so little faith they have in vasa and what it tells us pretty low leave it there was timing, but thanks so much for joining us time. if you look, if now in munich and the depth is fomor, i'm also corresponding emily. so when is with me in the studio, we were talking on the emily, could you tell us a bit about the present call anywhere in the volume it was moved to in december? what do we know about the present conditions there? so he was yeah, as you say, move there in december um, quite unexpectedly. and in fact,

for several weeks it was unknown where he is. whereabouts were unknown even to his family. this prison colony in the arctic has the reputation of having very harsh conditions quite apart from the fact that it's in the architects. so it's freezing cold there right now and throughout the winter and, and alex, the nevada, he himself has been in a, in a sort of so called punishment cell very frequently in that, in that prison colony which apparently has intolerable conditions within that. um, essentially isolation. so and his press, secretary cuter, yada is actually said that just a few days ago that he is in that isolation prison. so for the 27th time and that he will have spent over 300 days in these very, very difficult conditions within that harsh prison. so a lot of critics are saying,

you know, even if the regime, the bulletin regime didn't kill him. if he was, you know, his health had deteriorated so much through those harsh conditions, let alone through the fact that he was also previously poisoned with a nerve agent. and what are the initial reactions being in brush out the news of his death. so when it comes to various opposition, figures, pushing critics, and also independent media, critical media, media, critical of the, um, put in machine, there's been a huge outpouring of, of a motion. you know, people are talking about the fact that i like saying i need these behind his 2 children and i and also his wife or we just saw there. i'm and one observer for example, went on independent a tv and almost almost cried during his talk louder. and he was talking about the fact that this is really a watershed moment. that there is a rush of before and the rush after that when it comes to the authorities. they've been quick to say that, oh, this is convenient propaganda for the west to blame,

puts in at this time during a presidential campaign because presidential elections in rush are happening in just a month. and you know, that conveniently, the west had their reactions and their blame for the russian government just at the ready at a moment's notice. really what their the, those images show and speaking to me in the studio. thanks so much as a scale election of all the was of the most prominent russian opposition figure. yeah. as i chose to look at his life and resistance to pull things russia, it didn't take long for next a nobel need to become brushes, leading opposition figure, which is high profile. i'm good. the state, the former lawyer was regularly arrested on jail for his anti corruption campaigns . he also facing numerous criminal, proves including embezzlement charges, which eventually led to a conviction. he and his supporters always maintained the charges were politically

motivated. in 2017 nevada only run in the most go merrill election. his 2nd place galvanized to supportive engine 2016. he said he'd stand for president against vladimir putin of his growing political profile only. and 2 more enemies. he faced the tax like this one as an effort in southern russia. 1 a year later he was hospitalized off to being hit with green chemical died, leaving him almost blind in one eye. novelle me was fod from running against boots in in the 2018 election because of his embezzlement conviction. 7 but

nothing could still pin from campaigning against the president and russian corruption. not even frequent arrests in december 2019. 0 sorry, cheese way, disease anti corruption foundation office b s b k. the following july he was forced to shut it down. you might mention, this is not an emergency drill f b k as closing quite a boost and then a month later came the poisoning inside barrier no bony was left in a coma, doctor's believe he swallowed points and while i'm drinking tea, he was eventually floating to by then where he spent several weeks and intensive cash conformation that it was a chemical attack, caused a diplomatic standoff with moscow. the kremlin denied it

had anything to do with the assassination attempt. it puts most, all sorts of my last thing to it and can do is put a large blackout on the kremlin, which says alexi, please under no circumstances returned back home. no about coming to germany was not my choice. it's a cool country, but i'm not here on my own freewill. i'm here because they tried to kill me up with this beats. despite the risks in january 2021, alexei nevada, only flew back to russia and was immediately arrested price as took place across the country. to officials quickly stumped out. there was supposed to put the kremlin crouching, it wouldn't be signed, and it should be the book. within days of his arrest, his team released a pre recorded video in which he claimed to puts in an dunlab fish secret palace

worth of millions, alleging it was all financed by tax payers. money must go to 9th, the claims. but the story quickly went viral. some way security yet to more proof of the political need. his influence on the appeal dodge, he continued to manage the opposition movement. t funded from behind balls resulting in f, a longer jail. tons. by august 2023. he'd been sentenced to move in such he is, his supporters convince the russian states had finally succeeded in financing its most spoke. cool critic, let's get more from the deputies, russia. unless constantine again, constantine. what do you make of the circumstances around alexa, nevada, these deaf imprison? i don't think they have for now any kind of details. understanding

what's the happens. but i agree with those who said that it may have been a result of some kind of medical condition, but this medical condition was not next to dental and everything that the know about the conditions under which the body wasn't prison indicates that the state actually walking dead and in the end of the succeed. so in this sense, when people say that the state or some state the machine to the bottom of the, i'm not too far. even if the purely medical effects of the meta could be could be $30.00 and extra. and then what is the message then that that sends uh, the rest of the world. i think this is a very clear message. put some seals that's on the list which is very careful.
