Moscow [Russia], March 1: Russian President Vladimir Putin and the Russian state bear "criminal and political responsibility" for the death of Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny, a resolution from the European Parliament has said.
The resolution strongly condemned the death of Navalny, pledged full support to his widow Yulia Navalnaya to continue his work and called for Putin to be held accountable. Navalny died aged 47 on February 16.
He was weakened by a poison attack in 2020 and repeatedly held in solitary confinement in a Russian prison camp in the Siberian Arctic region, and is said to have collapsed while exercising in the prison yard and died despite attempts to resuscitate him. (DPA)
