Alexei Navalny. Leader of the Russian opposition whose bravery and determination in his fight for freedom continues to inspire millions. Murdered by Putin, Navalny’s legacy and his unshakeable belief in Russia’s democratic future live on.

The memorial marking Alexei’s grave in Moscow will be more than just a monument—it will be a symbol of hope and strength for all Russians who dream of a free and fair country.
