The widow of opposition leader Alexei Navalny, who died in a prison camp, has declared war on Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin and wants to continue her husband’s work. “I will continue Alexei Navalny’s cause and fight for our country. I call on you to stand by my side,” Yulia Navalnaya said in a video message.
‘I shouldn’t have made that video. There should have been another person in my place. But this person was killed by Vladimir Putin,” the mother of two says through tears in the video posted on social media on Monday. By killing Navalny, Putin also tried to deprive Russia of the hope of freedom and justice. That’s why she now wants to continue her husband’s fight, Navalnaya said.
Accusation: Tortured to death in the prison camp
“Three days ago Vladimir Putin killed my husband Alexei Navalny,” she said in the video, which she begins with the same greeting that Navalny always used in his messages. Her husband was tortured and tortured to death in the prison camp and repeatedly locked in solitary confinement in a small concrete box.

Wants to publish names of murderers
Navalnaya made a revelation: she knew exactly why Putin had Navalny killed and also who carried out the murder on his behalf. “We will tell you their names and show you their faces,” she explained.
Now the regime is even hiding the 47-year-old’s body, Navalnaya said. In the video, which included many private photos and recordings of Navalny’s public appearances, she also showed a photo of the mother searching for her dead son in the Arctic. Putin took away her dearest and most valuable person, half of her soul and her heart, the 47-year-old woman said. With the other half, she wants, like her husband, to fight against injustice and corruption and for a free Russia.
“Don’t just share the sadness, share the anger.”
“Don’t just share the sadness and endless pain that has enveloped us and will not go away. I call on you to share this anger with me. “The anger, the rage, the hatred of those who dared to destroy our future,” she appealed to her fellow campaigners and the people of Russia.
“I am not afraid,” she said, also referring to a statement by Navalny, who had repeatedly called on people in Russia to oppose Putin. But it was unclear whether she would return to Russia.
