Ah, so? Now I know why Assange is still living in the Embassy of Ecuador in London. 8 years already. Because "European countries are not in habit" . Sure-sure. Right, Mr. Snowden?
Any other fantasies and tales?
Note: in 2019 185 persons were departed to Russia for to be criminal charged.
European countries which cooperated with Russia in 2019: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Bosnia, Greece, Denmark, Spain, Italy, Cyprus, Poland, Portugal, Serbia, Slovenia, Germany, Montenegro.
Russia departed by requests of foreign countries 774 persons.

1. Assange isn't a politician.
2. He hasn't been in the Embassy of Ecuador for the last nine months.
3. He hasn't been deported to a country with a suspect legal system
The relevance of your comment therefore escapes me.
Do you have any independent source that supports your claim that Germany deported Navalny? Or was the claim just a continuation of recycled state propaganda against Navalny?

Well, Navalny is also not a politician - he has no own party or movement, nor program for changes. He is just criminal person who trying to revenge for confiscations of his money what he get when stole wood at north of Russia and late in post scam when he was in Moscow. Now is used by both sides: by Kremlin to make leaks and by West to make buzz in western press. Here in Russia as a politician he has zero weight (only 165 persons arrived to protest near court now, half of them were from medias). Nobody cares about him here. Tool for leaks, toy for propaganda.
He had most popularity at 2013 when he was candidate to Moscow mayor. He got 27% with support of right wing nationalists and left ultras. After that yea his popularity faded. Most of drops were in 2016 when he made scandal within opposition in demand to be #1 there. After this action he lost about 60% of his supporters, mostly intelligence.
Last drop in his story was in 2017. When he wanted to protest against something and city offered to him place for protest (up to 50000 persons) in the city center and even constructed scene there for him. It gave him no base for scandal. So at last day before meeting he dropped meeting and announced protest on the main city street where was historical carnival (first Sunday of September is Moscow's birthday). His adepts went to protest and destroyed carnival show. Navalny himself didn't appeared there.
After that story nobody within country count him politician, everyone knows he is just a provocator (we had such person at past about 100 years ago, google Gapon Russia).
Maybe Russia has to declare him "internal terrorist"? What do you think?

Hmmm it seems a few more people than you suggest seem to care for him perhaps.......well if you don't do the usual and just cry "western propaganda" that is.......
So either 500 turned up if Russia authorities are to be believed or closer 3000 if Sota ( an Independent media source) reports correctly or either 4000 or 15000 in Moscow depending who you wish to believe? Along with rallies in other cities planned and lots of sharing of stuff re him on line etc too it seems ?
Not exactly "nobody cares about him" as was suggested above perhaps ?
Copied from that western propaganda rag ....the BBC ....
"Dozens of people have been detained as police try to stop nationwide protests in Russia in support of jailed opposition politician Alexei Navalny. Police are also breaking up groups of his supporters gathered in the capital Moscow, ahead of a protest there. Thousands of people have already taken part in rallies in Russia's Far East, where there were also arrests."

This has probably run it's course now. We all think Russia is gruesome and Moses insists it's lovely. No point arguing about it.

I told yesterday, today will be protests. What's wrong?
Oh, I see. You think it is somehow linked to Navalny. It is not. Listen what crowd chanting, you will hear it even you don't know Russian. They are chanting "Putin please go out!" or just "Putin go out!" - "Pu-tin U-kho-dee!" and other such things. No one word about Navalny.
Now you see: Russian is democratic country where people are able public protests. And nobody call them "internal terrorist"... at least yet.
Do you want to know how real protests here looks like? Not these by marginals, but real crowd protest... look on the picture. It is square in front of Kremlin. That you will see when majority will protests. Compare with pictures what you see now...
