Alexei Anatolievich Navalny is an architect, attorney, and crusader against corruption who leads the Russian opposition. He has organized and run for office in opposition to the Russian government and President Vladimir Putin to bring about reforms against corruption.
Alexei Navalny was a member of the Coordination Council of the Russian Opposition. He is the chief of the Russia of the Future party and the founder of the Anti-Corruption Foundation (FBK).
His contributions to the cause of human rights earned him the Sakharov Prize and Amnesty International classifies him as a prisoner of conscience.
Alexei Navalny and his team, as of 2021, boast a YouTube following exceeding six million. Through these platforms, they have effectively distributed information about corruption in Russia, orchestrated political demonstrations, and promoted their campaigns.
In 2011, during a radio interview, he employed the epithet “party of crooks and thieves” to describe United Russia, the governing party in Russia.
Investigations conducted by the FBK and Navalny into alleged malfeasance involving senior Russian politicians and their allies have gained widespread attention.

Russian Opposition Leader Arrest Charge

Vladimir Putin declared his candidacy for a second six-year term in the presidency on Friday; his disappearance now corresponds with the start of the campaign trail.
A Navalny aide, Leonid Volkov, stated on X that the timing was “one hundred percent manual political control directly from the Kremlin; zero percent coincidental.”
Further, he stated, “Putin is fully aware of his principal opponent in these (‘elections’).” In addition, he desires to guarantee the suppression of Navalny’s influence.
There was no immediate statement from the Kremlin. To diminish Navalny’s political significance, both Putin and his spokesman refrain from using his name.
