yulia navalnaya is not in russia.going to be a fundamental weakness going forward ? yulia navalnaya is not a copy or a clone of alexei. she's a different person with different convictions and ideas, and different ways to navigate the political landscape. and the times have, of course, very much changed. i already mentioned that alexei's decision to go back to russia was taken in the pre—war era, which was very different from where we are in 2024. do you fear — just one more thought on that — do you fear there could be a parallel with neighbouring belarus, where we saw svetla na tikhanovskaya, you know, she says "win an election" — but of course, president lukashenko then engineered his own victory. tikhanovskaya was forced to leave the country, and i think it's fair to say that her leverage inside belarus is not the same outside the country. is it possible for your movement to gain the traction it needs inside russia when you no longer have an inspirational, charismatic figure who is inside the country? the challenges

is, listen to what alexei navalny’s mother, lyudmila ivanovna navalnaya, says about her. dear yulia my son in february 2022, you do not have a ban on places in russia, not a single criminal case has been opened against you, but you have never in 2 years they didn’t come to place it, in fact. when he just left the godfather , he was unable to assess the situation, you forced all of alexei’s property to be signed over to you, you even deprived your own son of the inheritance, which is why he doesn’t talk to you, you you turned your daughter against your son, it was strange for me to see how you, with a smile, a few hours after alexei’s death, speak on his behalf, how you appropriate his hair after his death, you didn’t even take a break for the sake of decency. came to the funeral of her, as she says, beloved and only husband. navalny's funeral took place on march 1. quite a lot of people came to the funeral who supported navalny, believed him, bedinsky was not at the funeral, who probably should have been was his wife, as she said, the only loving one, his children, but there were ot

listen to what alexei navalny’s mother, lyudmila ivanovna navalnaya, says about her. dear yulia2. you do not have a ban on angist in russia, not a single criminal case has been opened against you, but you have never come to visit him in 2 years. in fact, since the spring of 2021, you have not been with my son. brothers, you appear publicly in society with dear men, it was you who forced him to come to russia, then he had just left the committee and could not assess the situation well, you forced all of alexei’s property to be transferred to you, you even disinherited your own son, which is why he doesn’t talk to you, you turned your daughter against your son, for me it was it’s strange indica to see you with a smile a few hours after his death... alexey speak on his behalf from time to time, how you appropriate his voice after his death, you didn’t even take a break for the sake of decency, didn’t respect the grass, ran to sell his death: you i'm a floaty and low person i despise you and forbid you to speculate on the name of my son, my element. well , of course, there was an ar

we can see | these live pictures from the russian embassy in berlin, yulia navalnaya in amongst the crowdthers to go in voting, has vitaly shevchenko said. let's go to the russian embassy in west london. give us a sense of the picture there. i think it is a very different picture here, actually, because while you are not allowed slogans or placards or anything like that, of that kind in russia, it is very different here in russia, it is very different here in london, actually, and if you have a quick look over my shoulder i would say we have something like well over 1000 people at the moment, it is hard to get an exact figure, but that q stretches back for well over a mile, but that q stretches back for well overa mile, probably but that q stretches back for well over a mile, probably two to fall deep at a time and it is significant and a lot of the people we spoke to today confirms they are here for the midday protest and we have obviously only spoken to a sample so it is difficult to to say just only spoken to a sample so it is difficult to to sayjust how many are here for that protest

sub noise >> again, yulia navalnaya, though the most prominent among the russian opposition activists who came today to berlin to casts her ballot. she was cheered on actually enlarge parts as she was waiting by the crowd, a lot of people chanting, yulia we are with you, fredreka, very powerful statements. all right, fred pleitgen in berlin. thanks so much. let's bring in now joy new meyers. she's a journalist and historian of russia and eastern europe, joy, great to see you. so i wonder, you know, as we saw in matthew's piece, there were acts of defiance. can you give us an idea what happens to the people who are calling? but in such acts of defiance, putting dye in the voting ballot box or lighting fire thanks for having me, fredreka. well, there are serious consequences for anyone who dares to openly defy the russian state right now. they have laws that criminalize discrediting the russian army, quote unquote, or spreading disinformation are fake news and initial offenses can be a very severe, fine, and repeated offenses. and sometimes first offenses can result in various significa

makes the following statement: hello, this is yulia navalnaya, today for the first time on this channelband, alexei navalny. but putin also took navalny away from you, somewhere in a colony in the far north, for in the arctic circle, in eternal winter, putin killed not just a man alexei navalny, he along with him wanted to kill our hopes, our freedom, our future. but today. “i want to be close to you, because i know that you have lost no less than me. alexey, died in a colony after 3 years of torture. he didn’t just sit, he didn’t sit like others sit, he was tortured, he was held in a punishment cell, in a concrete box, please just imagine, they starved him, 3 years of hunger, and not only did he not give up, he supported us all the time. encouraged, laughed, joked, inspired, did not doubt for a split second what he was fighting for and what he was suffering for, alexey more than anything else in the world. loved russia, loved our country, in you, he believed in us, in our strength, in our future, in the fact that we deserve the best, he believed in words, in fact, so deeply sincerely t

his widow, yulia navalnaya, voted at the russian embassy in berlin, having queued there for several hours left, she told reporters she had written — �*navalny�* — on her ballot. her husband died in an arctic penal colony last month — and was barred from standing in this election as well as the presidential vote six years ago. these were the scenes in moscow. there've been no protest chants. the authorities warned that activists could be arrested. a rights monitoring group in russia says more than 70 people have been detained. vladimir putin is certain to win, giving him another six years in power. the kremlin has ensured he faces no credible opponent. there have been demonstrations at russian embassies around the world, including the uk, france, tokyo and georgia. these are the pictures from the french capital, paris, where demonstrators held banners. an effigy of president putin was burnt in prague in the czech republic. several dozen, mostly russian nationals, took part in a protest in the city's wenceslas square. with me is francis scarr who follows russia for bbc monitoring. hello to

now yulia navalnaya, after standing in line for a very long time did manage to get in and cast her ballot. and she said that she wrote the surname navalny on that ballot. and here's why he >> knew you stop with me is just above the represents the companion >> so it was yulia navalnaya's speaking immediately get if after getting out of that polling station in the russian embassy here in a berlin, she was then also asked if she had a message for vladimir putin. now she was walking off, she got a little bit annoyed when she was asked that question. she said, look, stop asking me about messages for vladimir putin. she called them a gangster and a killer and said there could be no negotiations with vladimir putin all right, bold messaging from her. thank you so much for glycan in berlin. all right. jill dougherty. now with this, so i want to get some analysis from, you. i mean, you formally the bureau chief in moscow, who know it well and even throughout this three-day election cycle, we've been seeing sporadic acts of defiance here and there but does it have any impact at all into the directi

with a focus on the election in russia — and bring you these live pictures from berlin where yulia navalnayathe wife of the late opposition leader, is protesting against the vote taking place in russia. voting has entered its third and final day for the country's presidential election, which is certain to hand ballots have been cast over vladimir putin another six years in power. ballots have been cast over three days. there has been some vandalism and a number of arrests at polling stations, but the final result is not in doubt as mr putin has no credible opponent. it comes as supporters of the late opposition leader, alexei navalny, have urged people to turn out en masse at midday in each time zone and vote for any candidate other than mr putin or spoil their ballot papers. the rolling protest has been dubbed "noon against putin". one of the main issues that voters are thinking about, is the war in ukraine. on that, here are two voters from an area just north of moscow. translator: | wish this i special operation would end as soon as possible. it is a pity people are dying, what a pity. ca

yulia navalnaya — the widow of putin's most vocal, late critic, alexei navalny — has called on kremlin at noon on sunday to protest the election. she's urged the west not to recognise what will be putin's fifth term as president. our russia editor steve rosenberg, is in moscow with more.

bianca, with the words of yulia navalnaya there. and i think it remains to be seen how exactly her platform and how she will take up the mantle of taking on alexei navalny's message. but for today, the main focus will be on moscow and finally being 14 days after alexei navalny died, finally being able to lay the opposition leader to rest, bianca sebastian shukla in berlin for us, i know that you've met navalny yourself. so really appreciate your thoughts and your reporting today and nathan hodge former cnn moscow bureau chief, joins us. now in london to discuss this >> nathan said was indicating that we don't yet have a sense of what this turnout will be today. and also what the level of repression or police presence will be. what are you expecting from the time that you've spent in moscow and what you've seen in terms of the shifts since the invasion of ukraine? >> well, bianca, i know we know from our experience just for the past two years covering the fallout from the full scale invasion by russia, that the authorities are willin

yulia navalnaya in a video saying that putin is to blame for her husband's death saying and vowing to take on that mantle and so you can understand that for security reasons, it simply wasn't feasible for them to actually go to the funeral. and the question now becomes what happens to russia's opposition? how does yulia navalnaya take that mantle and move it forward given the constraints upon her, given the fact that it is unlikely she will be able to return to russia anytime soon. wolf we're showing our viewers these pictures right now from moscow huge crowds of people simply waiting outside the cemetery amid a major police presence outside there as well. could they potentially face harassment? down the road? >> i think that's a very real fear, of course, is that there are a lot of police and presumably a lot of security apparatus who are out on the streets today, who could be taking notes, who could be making visits in the days and weeks to come to the people who attended today's funeral. we simply don't know. but what is extraordinary is that you didn't feel that that threat dimini

his widow yulia navalnaya is outside of russia and could not attend. neither could his children.naya has accused putin of murdering her husband and delaying the release of his body to cover it up. the family reportedly wanted to bury navalny thursday, the same day as russian president vladimir putin's state of nation address. several foreign diplomats attended the funeral, including the u.s., german, and french ambassadors to russia. the kremlin has warned against unauthorized gatherings and the russian rights group ovd-info reported "at least 67 arrests in 16 towns" friday, including six arrests in moscow. overall, the organization reports about 400 people have been detained at memorials for navalny since his death. earlier today in geneva, the u.n. human rights chief volker tÜrk addressed the situation in russia while giving his global update to the u.n. human rights council. he expressed concerns about the persecution of navalny and others in the run-up to russia's presidential elections starting march 15. >> in the russian federation, the authorities have further intensified

“hello, this is yulia navalnaya, today for the first time on this channel i want to address you, i shouldn'm not i should have recorded this video, there should have been another person in my place, but this man was killed by vladimir putin, 3 days ago vladimir putin killed. my husband, alexei navalny, but putin also took navalny away from you, somewhere in a colony in the far north, beyond the arctic circle, in eternal winter, putin killed not just a man alexei navalny, he along with him wanted to kill our hopes, our freedom, our future. but today i want to be with you because i know that you have lost as much as i have. alexey died in colonies. after three years of torture. he didn’t just sit, he didn’t sit like others sit. he was tortured. he was kept in a punishment cell, in a concrete box. please just imagine, he was starved. 3 years of famine. and not only did he not give up, he supported us all the time , encouraged us, laughed, joked, inspired, and did not doubt for a split second what he was for... and for what he was suffering? alexey loved russia more than anything else in the w

yulia navalnaya, the wife of the late russian opposition leader alexei navalny is in berlin at protestge the government to broker a deal to free them, before it's too late. as gangs tighten their grip over haiti's capital, the us says it's chartering a plane to evacuate its civilians from the north. a state of emergency in iceland, after a fourth volcanic eruption in as many months. the village of grindavik is evacuated, only weeks after residents were allowed to return. and steve harley, the frontman of cockney rebel, has died at the age of 73. hello, i'm lauren taylor. we start with a focus on the election in russia — and bring you these live pictures from berlin where yulia navalnaya, the wife of the late opposition leader, is protesting against the vote taking place in russia. voting has entered its third and final day for the country's presidential election, which is certain to hand

of course, yulia navalnaya, was one of them. she, after she waited in line for six hours, she finally got it. and then when she came out, she said that when she was inside, she wrote the name navalny on the ballot that she had then filled out and she said she did that because she said that's the most prominent, the most important, the strongest opponents towards are for vladimir putin had died in prison. obviously her late husband alexey navalny, she was then asked about vladimir putin and if she had a message for vladimir putin and xi got pretty aggravated when that happened. i want to listen into what happened stores which ascii for message from me or from somebody for mr. putin. there is there could be no end in negotiations and notching with mr.. because he is a killer. he's a gangster, he's the person who brought my country to the war into everything, just stopped asking both messages to mr. putin. thank you. >> so as you can see here, there are a lot of anger toward vladimir putin calling him a killer and a gangster and wh

against russia, they are pumping some new russophobic programs through it, another intrigue is that yulia navalnayad for german authorities to facilitate the exchange of her husband, but the head of the german foreign ministry... “you can believe me, you can not, the person who spoke to me had not yet finished his sentence, but i said, i agree, but unfortunately, what happened happened , only under one condition, he said that we would change him, so that he would not return, let him sit there, that’s all, but this happens, nothing can be done about it, navalny’s death became known.” february 16, this is a week later, according to the americans, after the meeting between biden and scholz. negotiations, of course, stopped, that's why america, germany, and the collective west in general , needed the extremist navalny, not a word about this in the article. here the reason is most likely not so much in navalny, it’s just that the americans have abandoned their own, their allies, and anyone else they needed so many times in recent years . cartoon brushes of fans of the prisoner of the polar wolf colony,

provocations against russia, to pump through some new russophobic programs, another intrigue is that yulia navalnayay asked the german authorities to facilitate the exchange of her husband, but the head of the german foreign ministry, anna lena berbak, was against it, and scholz was ultimately in favor of the chancellor. still talked to biden, but no official proposal regarding the exchange of krasikov for navalny , the white house did not send it to moscow; according to an american newspaper, vladimir putin received it through an intermediary a few days before navalny’s death. this is what the president himself said at a press conference on march 18. a few days before mr. navalny left his life, some colleagues told me, and not just administration employees, some people there said that... that there is an idea to exchange mr. navalny for some people who are in prison in western countries, you can believe me, you can not, the person who spoke to me had not yet finished the sentence, but i said, i agree, but unfortunately, what happened happened , only on one condition, that we change it so that he do

when coupled with things like modern uses of propaganda and the internet >> navalny's widow, yulia navalnaya spoke a day after his death. she was at the munich security conference. she said, justice for navalny's death will quote come soon do you see any signs especially given this sham election that putin will pay any price at all for navalny's death i think when yulia navalnaya, extraordinary woman a brave woman was talking about justice coming soon. she was not speaking in the same terms as, you know, 24 hour news she was talking in historical terms and terms of putins mortality to be quite, to be quite frank and the hope there is that justice will sooner or later come to the russian people and democracy will develop. but i think she was speaking in historical terms and not in the terms of immediacy that the word sun might indicate >> do you do you think that there will be justice relatively soon however, you define that? >> well, i think right now we should ask ourselves that. right now we have a us congress who can't bring itself to pass a supplemental bill quite yet to help the ukraini

so obviously we can say that yulia navalnaya, the widow of alex navalny, has become the new and veryeaderfor significant political leader and opposition leader for all russians who live outside of russia. these elections are _ who live outside of russia. these elections are going _ who live outside of russia. these elections are going ahead, - who live outside of russia. these elections are going ahead, newsl elections are going ahead, news organisations around the world talking about how the results are a foregone conclusion. i wonder if you can talk to us about the reasons the kremlin is doing this. i'm thinking in particular back to the days of the soviet union and the power struggles at the leadership of the party. how much is this not about vladimir putin securing six years as president but actually securing the opportunity to reshuffle those around him? i opportunity to reshuffle those around him?— opportunity to reshuffle those around him? i think that's a bit ceremonial— around him? i think that's a bit ceremonial because _ around him? i think that's a bit ceremonial because

and this suggests that they had been planning for this and they knew that yulia navalnaya would take over from alexei and that they needed to prepare a character assassination campaign. this all points to other evidence such as the fact that they're withholding the body world with holding the body for nine days before handing it over to the parents. all of this point in direction of willful assassination fasting what you say about ten days before they start this campaign. and on the day of the escalation, daniel yulia did share her grief for the world today. a video of special moments with her husband saying, i don't know if i can handle this or not, but i will try his daughter, dasha, who we all know paid tribute to her father's saying she promises to make him proud, but neither were able to attend navalny's funeral. his son couldn't go his brother couldn't go. it's not clear. they'll ever be able to go to russia. again. and yet despite all of this navalny loved russia then if we were conversations with him, what do you think about the fact that he now has his final resting place th

and of course, yulia navalnaya has essentially taken on the mantle of her husband and has vowed to continue his opposition work has already made some very important speeches to do. that's one of the reasons why she hasn't going back to russia because there are fears for her safety in terms of the safety of people at the funeral? yeah. i mean, there were real concerns in russia, hundreds of people have been arrested over the past couple of weeks just for laying flowers at makeshift memorials. but this was a moment where people felt that despite their fears, they had to come out at least on this occasion. and be brave and say goodbye to somebody who for many russians was it was a key figure, an important figure, a figure of hope and the janice, thank you so much joining me now as russian pro-democracy leader garry kasparov, author of winter is coming hello, vladimir putin in the enemies of the free world must be stopped seeing those images today. what went through your mind >> i don't know what was stored it's probably i can say that these people in the streets, moscow in few hours, they show

yulia navalnaya, the wife of the late russian opposition leader alexei navalny, is in berlin at protests of voting in the presidential elections. a mother's plea for her son as the families of i30 israeli hostages being held in gaza urge the government to broker a deal to free them before it's too late. a state of emergency in iceland after a fourth volcanic eruption in as many months. the these are live pictures. the village of grindavik is evacuated, only weeks after residents were allowed to return. and different man of cockney rebel, steve harley, has died at the age of 73. -- the steve harley, has died at the age of 73. —— the front man. hello, i'm rich preston. large queues have suddenly formed at some polling stations in russia on sunday, in an apparent show of dissent during elections designed to confirm vladimir putin in the presidency. allies of the late opposition leader, alexei navalny,

mr navalny�*s widow, yulia navalnaya, voted at the russian embassy in berlin, having queued there for hours. she was greeted by supporters with flowers and applause. as she left, she told reporters she had written, "navalny", on her ballot. her husband died in an arctic penal colony last month, and was barred from standing in this election as well as the presidential vote six years ago. in a message on x she thanked everyone involved in the protests worldwide, posting, "it's not me, but you who give me hope that everything is not in vain, that we will still fight". with me is francis scarr who follows russia for bbc monitoring. we have been following events. you are been keeping a very close tab on everything happening. one of the points that has come out from evening and just picking up from what we said that, from yulia, alexei navalny�*s widow was that navalny was mentioned by putin by name. how significant is that idem; name. how significant is that very si . nificant name. how significant is that very significant because _ name. how significant is that - significant because previ

talking about the fallout, rather poignantly, yulia navalnaya wasn't able to attend the funeral.entourage in the wake of all of this? i think the risks were quite present. she'd made a very touching video today and of course she made a video after learning of his death saying that she was going to carry on his mission. in other words, she could have quietly lived where she is living now in lithuania and carried on with her life but she didn't, she vowed to carry on. so i would assume she has to watch out for herself, for her children, and alexei navalny�*s anti—corruption foundation still exists. it'sjust in exile, it's in europe. they will try to carry on too. but they will still be persecuted by the kremlin to the extent that it can because i think one of the messages that the death of navalny sent to the world, from the kremlin�*s point of view, is we can do this, we can murder someone essentially at home if they are a dissident but we can also get people abroad — and we know that they have successfully poisoned and killed people who are poisoned abroad, most recently a russia

yulia navalnaya — the widow of putin's most vocal, late critic alexei navalny — has called on kremlinonents to go en masse to the polls at noon on sunday to protest the election. she's urged the west not to recognise what will be putin's fifth term as president. our russia editor, steve rosenberg, is in moscow with more. russia's democracy is the best in the world, the kremlin says. and at polling station 38 in moscow, we found a choice of candidates and plenty of voters. democracy in action, right? not quite. realistically, only one man can win this. vladimir putin! the man who's been on russia's political stage for the last quarter of a century. vladimir putin faces no serious challenger. his fiercest rivals are in exile or in prison. not that this woman, whose son is fighting in ukraine, wants any change at the top. "of course i voted for putin," she says. "i trust him." but not everyone who came out today was actually voting. this, one of a string of attacks on polling stations across russia. they are unprecedented. after chaotic scenes here... ..an arsonist is detained. and green

yulia navalnaya, the wife of the late russian opposition leader alexei navalny, was amongst those tore from the french capital, paris, where demonstrators held anti—putin banners near the eiffel tower. an effigy of president putin was burnt in prague. several dozen, mostly russian nationals, took part in the protest in the city's square. in the us many people gathered around the embassy in washington dc for the noon against putin protests. to japan next, where again people queued at the russian embassy in tokyo around midday. and here in london, there were protests and long queues. our correspondent, frances read, sent this update from outside the embassy. well, thousands of people have come out to vote here since midday today, really. the queue has been stretching back as far as you can see. and at the moment, if you have a look over here, this is the front of the queue. so this is people going in to vote. i'vejust spoken to someone in the queue. they said they got here at around "240 this morning. so we're talking about several hours to actually get to the front of the queue as wel

yulia navalnaya, the wife of the late russian opposition leader alexei navalny has been in berlin atnetanyahu defies international warnings not to go into the densely populated rafah, he said no pressure will stop him from continuing his planned offensive. ukraine has confirmed it hit an oil refinery in southern russia overnight, as part of a campaign to undermine the russian economy. the kremlin said the strike and other attacks were timed to disrupt the russian election and a state of emergency in iceland — after a fourth volcanic eruption in as many months. the village of grindavik is evacuated, only weeks after residents were allowed to return. now on bbc news...newscast. newscast from the bbc. hello. it's laura in studio. hello, it's paddy in the studio. and henry at home. and today, paddy, i think we ended up basically doing a lot

as his wife, yulia navalnaya, no longer in russia, took up his mantle, staying on social media, she wouldmake him proud. earlier, as navalny's coffin arrived with his mother and father, thousands of mourners chanted his name, risking retribution and defiantly shouted that russia would one day be free from president vladimir putin. all this watched by a heavy police presence. "we were very afraid when we arrived, hiding our flowers and camrose," this woman said. "but now i realize we need to do this and speak up." thousands more supporters staked the 1.5 miles to the cemetery where navalny was buried. each person saying their own final farewell. at 47 years old, alexei navalny died two weeks ago today. detained since 2021 on charges from embezzlement to terrorism, which his supporters were say were trumped up. this video of him joking with prison officials in arctic penal colony was the last time he was seen alive. one day before he died, his wife says he was poisoned in prison, but his official death certificate claims he died of natural causes. today in moscow, the mood was mostly peacef
