NDI statement on Death of Russian Opposition Leader Alexei Navalny

Language(s)
Resource Type

We are shocked and saddened by the news of Alexei Navalny’s death on Friday while serving a decades-long prison sentence in an Arctic penal colony. Alexei Navalny was a staunch advocate for a democratic Russia, and courageously continued his work for years despite incredible pressure and repeated threats to his life. His powerful voice for freedom was too much for those who silenced him. But the voice of freedom will not be silenced and his bravery and determination have left a lasting impact on the democratic community. Our thoughts are with his family during this incredibly difficult time.
