Statement by the Yabloko party on the death of Alexei Navalny
16.02.2024
The Yabloko party expresses condolences to the family and friends of Alexei Navalny.
Responsibility for Alexei Navalny’s death lies with the authorities of our country.
His death occurred in penal colony conditions that were essentially torture. The death of Alexei Navalny must be thoroughly investigated, as well as his poisoning in 2020. Society must know all those responsible for his death, and those responsible must be punished.
The Yabloko party demands a radical revision of the conditions of detention of all Russian citizens deprived of their liberty, and the humanisation of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia system.
The Yabloko party demands an immediate end to the persecution of dissidents and the release of all those convicted for criticising the government, especially those whose lives are at risk due to their health condition – Vladimir Kara-Murza, Alexei Gorinov, Yuri Dmitriyev.
Nikolai Rybakov,
Yabloko Chairman
