June 4 marks the birthday of Alexei Navalny. It will be the third birthday that he celebrates behind bars. He won’t receive visits, phone calls, or congratulations from his loved ones. However, we have the power to ensure that he doesn’t feel alone.
The team of Alexei Navalny announced a rally in his support:
Go out to the main squares of your cities, wherever you are, to celebrate
Alexey Navalny’s birthday and to remind each other that we are not alone.
Alexei Navalny has been in detention since January 17, 2021. He was detained at Moscow’s Sheremetyevo airport on his return from treatment after a poisoning attempt on his life. Since the summer of 2022, he has been in strict regime colony No. 6 in the village of Melekhovo, Vladimir Region, Russia. Since August, he has been sent to a punishment cell 15 times, where he spent more than 150 days.
Join Danish Friends of a Democratic Russia and come together with us to show solidarity with Alexey Navalny, the most prominent leader of the Russian opposition, to demand freedom to all political prisoners in Russia and Belarus
and to stand with Ukraine.
