Re Alexei Navalny : readers may be interested to look up an excellent article in Libertiesjournal.com by the writer Sergei Lebedev entitled “The Heroic Illusion of Alexei Navalny”. While fully acknowledging Navalny’s undoubted bravery, Lebedev analyses the problematic nature of his work and stance, particularly in relation to the Russian threat to world order and international law. The question it raises for me is whether we outside Russia were looking for a charismatic saviour who would absolve us from any responsibility to act against the very real threats to democracy that Russia poses.
