Abstract

Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny was murdered in a prison in Russia, and his death is seen as a result of the country's dictatorship under Vladimir Putin. Navalny had been targeted by Putin in the past, surviving a poisoning attempt in 2020. The author, Garry Kasparov, acknowledges that he and Navalny had disagreements but agrees that Putin's regime needed to be overthrown. Kasparov also criticizes Western politicians for not taking stronger action against Putin and calls for support for Ukraine in its conflict with Russia. The author concludes by emphasizing the need for courage and action to honor Navalny's memory. [Extracted from the article]
