This is a tremendous loss to all of us who hoped for a brighter future. This just means we have a lot more work ahead of us. He won't be forgotten.
what work ,your western Russia's traitors will not have the Kremlin , so work I don't agree🤔
There will come the day when Putin will fall. Then all Russians will be free and will not live in darkness and fear. You just need to believe.
"Prison exists in your mind. And if you think carefully, I'm not in prison, but on a space voyage to a wonderful new world".
RIP and your bravery will go down in history
Sure , down the toilet .
I can't imagine a braver person than Alexei Navalny, who willing walked into the lion's den, knowing what awaited him. He is a true martyr. 😢
So sad, the hope for the nation😥💔
What hope? His sentence was 19 years in prison...
😂 nobody in Russia knew who this clown was!
@@crookimagreed 😅😅😅 HOPE FOR NATION!!🙄
What a freedom fighter looks like. As an American i can say he was admired for his strength.
STOP IT
His name was Gonzalo Lira.
@@platinumfalconm3891 trust the trolls to be all over this - have they cancelled annual leave in Savushkina Street?
@platinumfalconm3891
It's unfortunate Americans don't know or forgotten about Gonzalo already. He's an American too.
As a Russian I thank you for your words
Rest in power, Alexei. 💔
His power was lies. America lets the news networks lie. Slander used to be illegal. Now it's not promoted. Hillary should be rotting in jail for the rest of her life for what she caused with her Russian collusion dossier. She wrecked so many things and she's walking around free. A hundred years ago almost any country would hang her.
Navalny is a terrorist. He was caught planning a color revolution to overtake Russia with MI6.
He’s not “political opposition”. He’s a foreign intelligence asset. A spy.
He was caught on video discussing/planning “mass protests, civil initiatives, propaganda, establishing contacts with elites” with British MI6 agent, James William Thomas Ford, via the funding from unmanned rich billionaires.
Navalny was the West’s frontman to takeover Russia from within. The same exact playbook they used to take over Ukraine.
Navalny was a Deep State asset, and he was treated as such. As a hostile foreign actor looking to overthrow a sovereign nation, on behalf of the West. Treason and sedition. So spare me with the West’s fake outrage and pearl-clutching, as if Putin is unfairly jailing and murdering political opponents, while the Trump witch hunt is going into its 8th year… and while Julian Assange is still being held in prison…
RIP Gonzalo Lira
Free Julian Assange.
@ramatgan1 navalny was a traitor. That is the part the western media leaves out. Guilty if treason.
It's funny. All my comments get deleted. I've posted to this thread at least twice.
A voice stood against tyranny:never forgotten.
Thank you for putting this out to honour a great man whose life has been sacrificed for the whole of Russia and even beyond, where other human beings have to endure totalitarianism and extreme cruelty. I feel terribly sad about Navalny. Yet he knew what a devil Putin is and he knowingly took a risk in returning to Russia - as a politician intent on making a point INSIDE Russia, not outside. Deeply sorry that his point has, in practice ,meant his life force being extinguished. 😢😭
Thank you. But we are never extinguished. I believe he is an advanced soul.
What nonsense, Navalny has never been an angel
Man, this is so sad. So devastating.😢😢😢
Rip Alexei Anatolievich Navalny, you will truly be missed

Courageous man. The world is worse off without him. ❤
Rest in power, brother.
Great episode. I’m actually crying. I’m so sorry.
💔
He Never Should have Returned to Russia!🤔😡
Well.. maybe he wanted his children and future grandchildren to live in a better world, so he fought for their future
Blessed are the peace makers
Thanks for clarifying
🕊YOUR COURAGE BRINGS LIGHT, YOUNG HERO
GODSPEED ALEXEI ☮💜
Rest in power and in peace. You will not be forgotten.
Your presentation is the best I have heard especially re Alexei Navalny.....and Maria ! Well done !
I caught his live performance, he was a great man, on par with Gandhi, Mandela, and others. He will go down in history
He will be forgotten in a week, get real.
I guess he fits with Ghandi
Ghandi was a Hindu Nationalist.
Navalny himself participated in far right movement white supremacist movement as well.
So they are probably making out now.

Very informative, thank you economist
Despite being poisoned in Russia, you displayed immense bravery by returning to Moscow, regardless of the personal hardships you faced. Tragically, you paid the ultimate price for your courage. Rest in peace. History will never forget you, and Putin will not be forgiven.
Live by the sword , die by the sword.
❤Alexei Navalny 🙏🤜💪✊✌🙏❤
What’s unfortunate is that he failed to appreciate that there are no hero’s, just a dead “soldier” at the end of his day.
A wise man knows it’s better to step back and live to fight another day.
What’s the reason this channel did not speak anything about the Tucker-Putin interview?
The whole thing is trivial & laughable after this elevated report of this man's legacy & death !
another bot meat riding the most mid interview in history, womp womp!
Because they don't cover trivia.
@@ultonian63 an interview with the leader of the country we are in war with is not trivia
@@BCSTS Most watched interview in history, certainly not trivial, this Navalny though a CIA stooge that no one cares about.
Smoking on that Alexei Navalny pack tonight 💨
RIP Navalny. But it was much more interesting to hear about the start of his career.
RIP Alexei. You are a true hero and your legend will live on 😢. Murdered. ❤
What happened to Gonzalo Lira?
something something tucker carlson interview something something cia agents, something something biden womp womp
I can just picture you copying and pasting from the troll factory script.
the economist I did not see any report about gonzalo lira death
Because Gonzalo spoke the truth.
His name was Gonzalo Lira.
🖤
A movie about him must be produced quickly so the world learn about his incredible courage and deep love for his country. Even the biggest Putin yes-man must admit "This man was gifted with a special kind of bravery. He is in the rank of Stauffenberg and the Scholl siblings, Nelson Mandela and all exceptional heroic figures in history. "
He was a racist, a criminal, a CIA stooge and a traitor to Russia.
A man deserving of a legacy. Navalny will always be remembered by the world as the Russian leader who could have made Russia great.
Very similar to Gorbachev and Elzin?

An extraordinary human being is gone...
A brave man. R.I.P
I hope Rick and Morty pays tribute to Navalnyy
in another perspective, this person is considered a traitor to the nation and state because he is considered to have defected. RIP🕊
If he defected, how come he returned to Muscovy from Berlin after they nearly killed him by poisoning?
🕊️🌹🕯️ Navalny 🕯️🌹🕊️
We failed him, we are cursed…
Zelensky's passion of bonding with people thru comedy and songs has led him to this most important role for Ukrainians **And for a better WORLD.** For *goodness* sake, NOW is the time to stop **tyrants** striving for a dystopian world❣💪🇺🇦=💪🌐🕊️
Zelensky has silence all oppositional parties. And Western leaders said nothing about it. Hypocrites.
Glad you brought him up.

No thanks.
No different from what the British government is doing to Julian Assange or what the Ukrainian government has done to Gozalo Lira.
Wrong, but you already knew that.
Yes, the West did the same with Navalny.

If you are an independent media, make a material about David Kelly too! People need to know the truth!🧐
I agree….. I’m still haunted by what happened to David Kelly 😞
💔🕯️
He lived in complete torture before he ultimately died 💔 we will not let Navalny’s sacrifice be forgotten. Putin must be stopped.
He was probably a CIA asset. What about Gonzalo Lira?
He tried in Belarus in 2020, but most belorussians didn't support the idea to be a West's poppets, not like it was successfully done in 2016 in Ukraine
Gonzalo got the same treatment in Ukraine. Both sides are as murderous and treacherous and morally bankrupt as each other.
Both of these comments are ridiculous & juvenile imo ! 😴
You earn the usual potato for that remark.
Definitely a CIA asset.
Check Redacted for a bit of balance on this individual....
Stop saying he was a victim. With 500k USD in
Russia i do not think he is the peopje champion
That’s small change to Putin and his band of thieves.
ALEXEI NAVALNY BRAVE NOBLE MAN 🙏🕊️🫶
A man is dead but not his ideas.
Rip
Alexei Navalny was one unique human being. He saw his government and Russia for what it was. He wanted to help Russian people, and allow them to have a voice. (It's appalling that he was murdered by Putin). It proves beyond reasonable doubt that Russians will remain in stagnation.
ALEXEI NAVALNY RIP HERO 🙏🕊️🫶
😢 rest in peace Navalny gid bless you 🙏
Need to cry?
Poor man its so cold up in the Siberia
Portraying Navalny as a kind of alternative to Russian imperialism is a travesty. Navalny was imperialist chauvinist and antisemite. He was also brave oppositionist, but not an alternative to Putin's empire. That is only what the Western media wanted him to be, a politician which they wanted instead of Putin.
🕊️🌹🕯️ Navalny 🕯️🌹🕊️
The guy just died, and you have the movie ready? You work quick I can you that. Who is next one then?
Bro, this is from a podcast. It was already published. So yes, it was easy to put out quickly.
Die wussten schon das er wird sterben,bevor er gestorben ist LOL
He will go down in history as one of Russia's greatest Patriots, who took a stand against Putin and the oligarchy that own russia
As if America isn't owned by a billionaire oligarchy; it is common knowledge all of your politicians are bought and paid for. You run a 2-party regime and dare to call it 'democracy'. You're fooling no one but yourselves.
Who called for the genocide of georgians and held facists parades
A true warrior he was..more than I can say about coward Putin.
Putin is that scared of a prisoner 😂😂 little man Putin 😂😂 RIP🕯️ Navalny 🎉🎉🎉
Always...always do your own research. Do not be spoon-fed a controlled narrative.
Propaganda
Brave man💜🧡❤🙏🌌
Rest in Peace, always in my heart

A sad day for Israel and NATO.
Free Julian Assange.
Got that Navalny pack going for 20 rubles 💨 🇷🇺
This will
End Putin
It takes some big cojones to be the face of the Russian opposition.
The leader of the Russian opposition was Zyuganov. Navalny’s party wasnt even in the top 3, CPRF is the only other party to get above 10%
@@tempejkl You're assuming that Russia's elections were held under anything like free and fair conditions. They are not and hence those statistics are worthless.
@@tempejkl These guys aren't interested in facts like that unfortunately. They've got so much misdirected hate in them, that just a simple google search would be a cognitive meltdown.
Was Navalny ever allowed to campaign openly? Why were they so afraid of him??@@tempejkl
@@jimanstey9174 They weren't afraid of him, he was a criminal, a known CIA stooge and was advocating for regime change in a way that was not democratic, the guy ended up in prison because he broke the law.
Totally for got
He got locked up before the War
Is he the big reason was make Putin think of the War from the beginning
You was in prison, got poisoned, you got saved, but you came back to Russia again to expected may got catched and being prison again, and may got killed, but you still did it, still go , still came back
Well Nalvany
I love you
But your move was totally wrong
When you no longer exit in this life
Your peoples have to survived a big loss
Who would be the Executive of the Organization now !!
Your wife !!??
I would not putting my wife into the harmful situation as it
Your daughter who was Speed-at Georgia University was pointed hurtful words to Putin while you was in Prison, mean of you was in Putin s hands
You wanted Putin killed you
Did you ?
I love you
But your move was wrong my man 😞🙏
Stay alive to bring peoples Freedom
May founded a different way
To be leading a hold big country
You needed first
Very thoughtful
Calm
Stay alive
As a human being
There are more people dies each day
Russian, Ukraine, and other countries who involved into this war
Its very sad
Your editor in chief didn't seem too bothered about the death of Ukrainians. On the Daily show the other day, Zanny Minton Beddoes said it was the cheapest way to enhance US security. You dont see the wrong in her comment? So Navalnys life is more important than all those soldiers that have died in ukraine, on both sides. Your editor in chief didnt even batter an eyelid or at least shed a tear for all those who have died. Whats happened to all you people. Have you no heart?
Such coincidence all have prepared movies about life of Navalny, conferences in less than 12 hours, hmmm
Poo tin has been trying to get away with murdering him for years so it's not exactly a surprise my conspiracy loving friend
This is the first thing I thought, everything goes according to their plan
Its because he was a man living on borrowed time. All major news outlets have stories that are ready to be finished in case this or that event occurs. But isnt it very exciting to think that the liberal outlet the Economist have inside information about the inner workings of the autocratic Kremlin....
Die Filme sind schon vor eine Monat gemacht worden,weil die wussten schon ,was wird und muss passieren,weil in die Russland 🇷🇺 Sollte die Wahl werden,das musste
eine Opfer sein ,gegen Putin,alte Kniffe,wie immer ,
bei jeden Land ,welche nicht andere gefällt,wegen die Demokratie
who decided Navalny was the No1 Russian opposition leader?
He made himself that, courageously.
His Western masters tried to mold him into the number one oppositionist. So that this agent of influence either seized power in Russia or was engaged in destabilizing the internal situation in the country.
For me, all Russians are tested now by war in Ukraine but Navalni was tested by Ukraine earlier, he was asked about situation with annexation of Krimea peninsula by Russia, he said that Krimea is not a sandwich which you will take and can give it back. That's your guy. Enjoy. I personally do not see anything you said about him.
It's important not to idolise a human being. He started off as a very racist and far right figure with some very racist comments. This shouldn't take away from his fight for freedom, but should be mentioned. We shouldn't white wash important figures in history.
He was an ethno-slavic supremacist who marched along side neo-naziis and supported the war against Georgia in 2008.
Lets not forget about that in the name of being pro-democracy/anti-putin.
Navalny is a terrorist. He was caught planning a color revolution to overtake Russia with MI6.
He’s not “political opposition”. He’s a foreign intelligence asset. A spy.
Video footage exists of Navalny discussing planning “mass protests, civil initiatives, propaganda, establishing contacts with elites” with British MI6 agent, James William Thomas Ford, via the funding from unnamed rich billionaires.
