Two years ago, I had the honor of meeting with Leonid Volkov, Navalny’s then chief of staff, and it was clear that the Russian people’s aspirations for a nation free of authoritarianism is alive and well.
- “We must continue to stand with those brave Russians who dare to speak out and continue to press for the release of political prisoners such as Vladimir Kara-Murza.”
