Opposition leader thanks supporters and says ‘they can’t put everyone in jail’
Russia is braced for a second weekend of unrest as the Kremlin cracks down on protests in support of the jailed opposition leader Alexei Navalny in an effort to prevent them from growing into a Belarus-style uprising.
In a new letter, Navalny appeared to nod to the “Stop the Cockroach” demonstrations against the Belarusian leader, Alexander Lukashenko, and thanked his supporters, saying: “They can’t put everyone in jail.”
