Yulia Navalnaya’s blunt message about Putin, the president who murdered her husband

Almost immediately after Russian opposition leader Alexi Navalny was murdered by the Kremlin last year, in an arctic penal colony, Russian president Vladimir Putin turned his eyes to Navalny’s widow, Yulia Navalnaya.  She knows that nowhere is safe for her; not even flying to Australia, as she did this week. She was once a victim of poisoning. And a Russian court has issued an arrest warrant for her, on charges of extremism. Today, international and political editor Peter Hartcher joins me to discuss how Yulia Navalnaya is combatting Vladimir Putin and fighting for a “normal” Russia, even as Putin is being welcomed into open arms by an increasing number of democratic leaders. #russia #putin #anticorruption #podcast Subscribe to our YouTube channel:    / smh   Subscribe to our journalism: https://subscribe.smh.com.au/ https://subscribe.theage.com.au/ Listen to our podcasts: https://podcasts.smh.com.au/ https://podcasts.theage.com.au/
