I wish Alexei Navalny never went back to Russia after he was poisoned and treated successfully in Germany. He did go to Russia and wanted to change the system. He was sentenced for many years and probably poisoned.

LONDON -- Alexei Navalny, the longtime Russian opposition politician and critic of Vladimir Putin -- often considered to be a vocal and prominent thorn in the side of the Russian government -- has died in prison at age 47, according to the prison service.
"On 02/16/2024, in correctional colony No. 3, convicted Navalny A.A. felt ill after a walk, almost immediately losing consciousness. The medical staff of the institution immediately arrived, and an ambulance team was called. All necessary resuscitation measures were carried out, which did not give positive results. The doctors of the emergency medical service pronounced the convict dead," the release said.
Navalny's parents and lawyer will be in the penal colony where he was being held on Saturday morning, according to Navalny's associate Ivan Zhdanov.
...
Navalny's wife, Yulia Navalnaya, addressed leaders at the Munich Security Conference in Germany following the reports of her husband's death, speaking just after U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris.
"We cannot believe Putin, they always lie," she said. "If this is true, I want Putin and all of his entourage, Putin's friends and his government to know that they will be held accountable for what they have done to our country, to my family and to my husband. And that day will come very soon."
"I want to call on the entire world community, everyone in this room and people around the world, that we come together to unite and defeat this evil, defeat the horrific regime that is now in Russia," Navalnaya said.
"This regime and Vladimir Putin must bear personal responsibility for all the terrible things they have been doing to my family, to our country Russia, in recent years," she said.
