A Russian " " court " " on Friday issued its verdict in a new case against jailed opposition leader Alexey Navalny, convicting the politician of promoting “extremism” and extending his time in prison by 19 years, according to Russian state media and his own team.
Difficult to feel sympathetic towards someone who suggests annexed land land can be taken at will. But also hard to deny the punishments he faces from Putin are extremely heavy handed. Russia really needs a revolution that puts in place people who actually want to serve the people and become a productive democracy.
Revolutions never do that, because they’re started by wannabe-dictators or the military.
