Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny has been located in a prison colony north of the Arctic circle, his associates confirmed Monday, nearly three weeks after losing contact with him.
Navalny, the leading critic of Russian President Vladimir Putin, is current serving a 19-year sentence on charges of extremism, but his attorneys said they have not been able to reach him since Dec. 6.
He was previously imprisoned in Russia’s Vladimir region, about 140 miles east of Moscow. But his spokesperson, Kira Yarmysh, confirmed on X, formerly Twitter, that he is now imprisoned further north in the Yamalo-Nenetsk region.

The Russians should offer to Free Navanly if The US Frees all J6 Political Prisoners.
In 2009, Yamalo-Nenetsky Avtonomny Okrug is Russia’s most important source of natural gas, with more than 90% of Russia’s natural gas being produced there. The region also accounts for 12% of Russia’s oil production.[30] The region is the most important to Russia’s largest company Gazprom, whose main production fields are located there. Novatek – the country’s second-largest gas producer – is also active in the region, with its headquarters located in Tarko-Sale. According to Novatek on 22 October 2019, the natural gas reserves in the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug represent 80% of Russia’s natural gas and 15% of the world’s natural gas supply.

Population grew to about 500,000 by 1990 due to gas development. Constant since then.
Dems want sooooo bad to do this to PDJT.
“...in a prison colony north of the Arctic circle...”

Extremism is what he was sentenced for?
I give you the following quote:
“Extremism in defense of liberty is no vice. Moderation in pursuit of justice is no virtue.”
Double points if you know who is famous for this quote !

Navalny represents the world of Soros. He has received unprecedented funds for his candidacies as mayor and president all of which point to the potential for a classic Soros backed coup attempt in Russia.
Navalny represents the world of Soros.

Exactly, at least Vlad and the Russian Congress ( Duma) protect their citizens…
Outlawing gay marriage, Trans Gay agendas, LBBTX agendas, boys in girls bathrooms, men in woman’s sports- we can learn a lot from modern day Russia.
The Gateway Pundit previously reported on the Soros-related origins of the Russia collusion conspiracy. Now there is more information on George Soros’ role in Russiagate through the West’s favorite Russian opposition blogger Alexander Navalny.
Activist Alexei Navalny became one of the key figures in the fake Russiagate conspiracy theory when he released a video linking Trump ex-campaign manager Paul Manafort to Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska, reported by the Telegraph in February 2018. At the same time, the Telegraph had to admit the video “does not specifically mention Donald Trump”. In addition, Oleg Deripaska “denied receiving briefings from the Trump campaign, although he admitted hiring Mr. Manafort as a consultant in previous years”, the Telegraph reported. Although it was a “big nothingburger”, it was fit to print in the NYT.
In 2009, opposition blogger Alexei Navalny emerged as leader of the Russian opposition and was portrayed as a hero by Western media. In 2010, he graduated from a half-year Yale Greenberg World Fellowship, which was originally called White House Fellows under Bill Clinton’s Presidency. The first program director of the Yale World Fellows was Dan Esty, energy and environmental policy adviser for the 2008 Obama campaign.
Soon thereafter Navalny started an anti-corruption campaign in Russia that was supported early on by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Vladimir Putin accused Secretary Clinton of supporting Navalny in 2011, saying she sent “a signal” to “some actors in our country”.
At the same time, Navalny allegedly went to work for the Open Society Foundations (OSF) methadone program, which aimed to “bring together actors, alliances from different spheres (i.e. Navalny)”, as OSF documents leaked by DC Leaks showed 2015. George Soros supported a whole network of radical left-wing NGOs in Russia before being banned in 2015.
Navalny is still closely allied with exiled oligarch Mikhail Khodorkovsky, who modeled his “Open Russia Foundation” on Soros’ network. Khodorkovsky’s London-based investigative research unit Dossier, which has often shared hacked documents from unknown sources, was also behind NYT 2018 claims Russian lawyer Natalia Veselnitskaya was acting on behalf of the Russian government when she offered allegedly incriminating evidence to Donald Trump. Jr. in the infamous Trump Tower Meeting. It has since emerged Veselnitskaya met with Fusion GPS head Glenn Simpson before and after the June 9 2016 Trump Tower meeting, placing her closer to the Clinton opposition research campaign than the Kremlin.
Alexei Navalny and his brother Oleg were recently convicted of embezzling 26 million Rubles from French cosmetics firm Yves Rocher, with whom they had a Russian distribution deal 2008 to 2011, the Navalnys were represented in French court in Vannes, Brittany by attorneys William Bourdon and Amélie Lefebre of Association Sherpa, a whistleblower defense which also defended Edward Snowden and is supported by the Clinton Foundation‘s Humanity United, Freedom Fund and the Open Society Foundations. Although the plaintiff was French company Yves Rocher, who also sued for damages in France, Western media depicted it as some sort of sham trial instigated by Vladimir Putin. While Oleg was sent to prison for three years, Alexei Navalny was given a suspended sentence and remains free.
Mikhail Khodorkovsky and Alexei Navalny write for leftist flagships The Guardian and the New York Times, where Navalny demanded sanctions against his own country over the Russian annexation of the Crimea 2014 (which many Russians consider a “reunification”). Navalny’s daughter Daria Navalnaya gave a video statement on New York Times Video on June 27, 2019 – a remarkable opportunity for a 17-year-old young woman.
It now emerges George Soros and the Clinton-Obama Democrats (who worked closely together in Eastern Europe from Macedonia to Ukraine) have been trying to poison US-Russian relations for years by means of allies like Navalny and Khodorkovsky. An alliance between Trump, Putin and other leaders like Benjamin Netanyahu, Nigel Farage, Viktor Orban and Matteo Salvini is their worst nightmare, and they will stop at nothing to prevent it.
How many more connections are there between Soros and Spygate?
that’s real Geo-politic right there that is...
Everyone should read-up on Navalny’s election dispute with Putin’s United Russia Party and the government
uncontrolled voting machines
unvetted mass mail in ballots
abnormal vote counting procedures
lawfare against him and his organization
lawfare against his lawyers
bankrupting allies with frivolous charges
exaggerated claims of “insurrection” and “treason.”
Its like the US Democrats deployed Putin’s playbook
Navalny can’t be freed or he might get elected President. Good to know he’s still alive.
Because after all Putin is such a good Christian man
The gracious Mr Goldwater
