These are real heroes. This doctor just spent over a month under home arrest (first w/o the right to seeing her kids.) Now, she & her colleagues are going to the penal colony to insist on the right to treat #Navalny. His condition is deteriorating; the colony is struck by TB.
This is the same doctor who played Beethoven while her house was being searched. Here's my interview with her lawyer from 2 months ago only. Now she's risking her life again...
#Navalny is on a hunger strike and lost 13 kg (26 lbs). He's showing symptoms of the coma and toxic poisoning aftermath, according to the doctors in the video above. #Putin is killing people in the broad daylight and in front of the whole world. Share a word.
Meanwhile, the second doctor dies in the hospital in Omsk where Navalny was taken right after the poisoning. rferl.org/a/russia-naval…
As Navalny risks dying in penal colony and opposition leaders are under home arrest, #Putin signs a law that will allow him to run for two more presidential terms until 2036. He is at his 4th term and has been ruling for 20 years.cnnphilippines.com/world/2021/4/6…
I just spoke to Dr.Vasilieva's lawyer: she knows that she is facing arrest by going there. She is not allowed to do it. World awareness helps. Please help. #FreeNavalny #Navalny #FreeRussia
Update: Dr. Vasilieva & several other doctors & journalists was detained. Navalny is in a prison Ned ward and they won’t transfer him to a hospital (“due to the lack of passport”) or pass him a photo of his family. #Navalny #FreeNavalny

#Navalny is on a hunger strike (lost 16 lbs since the arrival to the colony); has severe back/legs pain. To suppress the protests, the Kremlin cracks down on the opposition & social media. To spark nationalism, #Putin pulled troops to the #Ukrainian border. Europe fears war.
Instead of doctors, the Kremlin sent #MariaButina, reporting for RT (Russian Today.) Yes, that Butina. washingtonpost.com/world/europe/r…
"In the past week, the U.S. military’s European Command raised its watch level from possible crisis to potential imminent crisis — the highest level — in response to the deployment of the additional Russian troops." nytimes.com/2021/03/30/wor…

🧵 ⚡️ #Navalny, in handcuffs, expects his second verdict in one day NOW, about to be ready any minute now. He’s joking about cucumbers he pickles in his cell. I will translate his SECOND last address in one day but here is the previous trial coverage
Extracts from #Navalny last address #2 today: “Putin’s party is akin a swine devouring oil and gas dollars from a trough, & when poked & reminded that $ are for everyone, growls, “What about the WWII? What about veterans?!” The verdict is due any minute now. #FreeNavalny 👇🏼☝🏼
The judge is back and reads the verdict now.

#Navalny is facing TWO court hearings today; one is happening now. I'm listening to his speech. He's trying to explain: he was not hiding from the court; he was in a coma. The whole thing is so absurd that it is impossible to comment. In a nutshell: they just want him locked up.
It is clear that the verdict will not be overturned. He will go to serve 2.8 years or more in a penal colony. His allies are locked up under home arrests w/o the Internet. People are silenced. Honest and brave people have lost again.
Navalny's last word #1: "I give the last word so frequently. This trial will end now; there will be the second [today]. And there, too, I will say my last word. If someone decides to publish my last words, it will be a thick book..."

❤️“Love is stronger than fear”: today, a peaceful #protest in #Russia. In Moscow, 230 women made a human chain, chanting “Freedom to political prisoners!” Over 10,000 arrested and all opposition leaders in jail or under house arrest.
There will be protests: people plan to step in the streets and backyards of apartment buildings with their phone flashlights alight in support of Navalny.
Some already happened in the Far East and Siberia.

💥Happening now: another trial of Navalny, already sentenced to 2.8 years. A fabricated case is based on his social media comment on RT (Russia Today) promotional video in which Putin’s allies push changes to the Constitution that extended Putin’s presidency.👇🏼
Navalny called performers “Putin’s lackeys” and now he faces jail time or fine in addition to 2.8 years. Accused of spreading “deliberately false information denigrating the honor and dignity" of a WWII veteran, Navalny is now abandoned by press.
Protests in his support were suppressed by Putin with vengeance. The world got tired of Russia and it’s never-ending drama. Drama or not, evil wins again.
