Tribute to Navalny in the European Far West
On February 17th 2024, a day after the death of Aleskey Navalny, members of the Russian diaspora gathered in front of the Russian Federation Embassy in Lisbon, Portugal, chanting anti-Putin slogans and demanding freedom for their homeland.
Organised by the Free Russians Association (ADRL — Associação de Russos Livres), the event featured several speakers, encouraging their compatriots not to give up on their fight against pro-war propaganda and misinformation, and to keep supporting the local Ukrainian community in any possible manner. Many Ukrainian immigrants and refugees were also present at the vigil, mourning alongside their neighbours the infamous death of the man who dared to face and expose the Kremlin’s ruling oligarchy.
"We don't give up!"
