Court fines Boris Nadezhdin, the antiwar politician who tried to challenge Putin in Russia’s 2024 presidential race, over a Navalny photo

The real goal of this trial is to silence me and keep me from running for the State Duma.

If I am found guilty, I will lose the right to run — and according to polls, I am currently winning the race.

This is a farcical situation.

I cannot understand why Alexey Navalny’s face qualifies as the symbol of an extremist organization.

If that is the case, then people who resemble him should be detained.

It’s absurd. ...
