Against the backdrop of hysteria from those around the criminal blogger Alexei Navalny about the deterioration of his health in the colony, the wife of the oppositionist Yulia Navalny left for Germany.
Interfax reports this with reference to informed sources. And although Navalnaya’s lawyers do not confirm this information, all Russian liberal media published it.
“What’s surprising to me is why Navalny’s wife never went on a date with her husband. Do lawyers need it more? Is everything okay with Yulia?” Sergei Karnaukhov, assistant professor of the RANEPA department, is perplexed in his telegram channel.
This is Navalnaya's second trip to Germany in recent months. The first time she flew to Frankfurt was on February 10 in the midst of high-profile court hearings accusing her husband of slandering a veteran. Yulia did not take advantage of the last opportunity to support her husband during the emotionally difficult process and communicate for the last time before he was sent to the colony.
In connection with Navalnaya's first trip, a scandal erupted in Germany. Famous Russian designer Artemy Lebedev published a document that allegedly is Yulia’s German passport. He later apologized for the fake, but Navalnaya did not accept the apology.
Political scientist Alexander Sosnovsky believes that the scandal still had a factual basis.
“The question of whether she has a second citizenship still remains relevant, whether we want it or not. Regular trips to Germany, under conditions of severe restrictions, are possible only if you have citizenship or a residence permit. Or having a special status that we will never know. I would like to..." wrote Sosnovsky.
Navalnaya's first trip was accompanied by strange things. In Frankfurt, she did not leave the airport along with other passengers on the flight, and the journalists did not wait for her. Returning to Moscow, she flatly refused to communicate with journalists who asked her about the trip.
