Tyskland manar Ryssland att klargöra Navalnyjfallet

Alexei Anatolievich Navalny (Russian: Алексе́й Анато́льевич Нава́льный, IPA: [ɐlʲɪkˈsʲej ɐnɐˈtolʲjɪvʲɪtɕ nɐˈvalʲnɨj]; born 4 June 1976) is a Russian politician and anti-corruption activist with mixed history in both liberal and far-right politics. He came to international prominence by organizing demonstrations, and running for office, to advocate reforms against corruption in Russia, Russian President Vladimir Putin, and Putin's government. Navalny also has a long history of participating in ultra-nationalist demonstrations, advocating for heavy crackdowns on minorities and migrants, as well as made various other ethnically charged and inflammatory statements over the years against Muslims, Georgians and various other ethnic and religious groups. This had led to Navalny being described by some former colleagues as "the most dangerous man in Russia," due to his extreme nationalism. In 2012, The Wall Street Journal described him as "the man Vladimir Putin fears most".Navalny was a Russian Opposition Coordination Council member and the leader of the opposition political Progress Party. In September 2013, he ran in the Moscow mayoral election, supported by the RPR-PARNAS party. He came in second, with 27% of the vote, losing to incumbent mayor Sergei Sobyanin, a Putin appointee. Navalny claimed election fraud, and that he actually received more votes. Navalny became well known through his LiveJournal blog, but later switched to YouTube, where he has four million subscribers, and Twitter, where he has 2.2 million followers. Through these channels he published videos and documents about corruption by Russian state officials, organized political demonstrations, and promoted his campaigns for office. He has also been active in other media. In a 2011 radio interview he described Russia's ruling party United Russia as a "party of crooks and thieves", which became a popular epithet. He created the Anti-Corruption Foundation in 2011. Navalny has been arrested several times by Russian authorities. He received two suspended sentences for alleged embezzlement in two separate cases, one in July 2013, and another in December 2014, for five-year and three-and-a-half-year terms of imprisonment, respectively. Both cases are widely considered to be politically motivated and to bar him from running in future elections. According to rulings by the European Court of Human Rights, the cases violated Navalny's right to a fair trial. In 2013, the Russia-based Memorial Human Rights Center recognized Navalny as a political prisoner. In February 2014, Navalny was placed under house arrest and restricted from communicating with anyone but his family. In May 2018, he was sentenced to 30 days in prison for attending an unsanctioned protest against Putin in Moscow; he condemned the verdict.In December 2016, Navalny tried to run for President of Russia during the 2018 election, but was barred by Russia's Central Electoral Commission in December 2017. The Supreme Court of Russia rejected his appeal and upheld the ban. He and his supporters have been detained and arrested multiple times, and have become victims of attacks on many occasions during the campaign. In March 2017, Alexei Navalny and his Anti-Corruption Foundation created a documentary He Is Not Dimon to You, accusing Dmitry Medvedev, the then prime minister and former president of Russia, of significant corruption.On 20 August 2020, Navalny was hospitalized and left in a serious but stable condition after a suspected poisoning during a flight from Tomsk to Moscow in a possibly politically motivated attack. His flight was diverted to Omsk. On 22 August he was transported to Berlin on a medical evacuation flight paid for by the German non-governmental organisation Cinema for Peace. As of 24 August, he remains in an artificial coma, but with no current acute danger to his life.
