04:09❗News about Alexei Navalny.
07:08 “Alexei is in good spirits and hasn’t lost his sense of humor. He understands that he is imprisoned, and it’s unclear how long he will remain there. And it’s obvious that Putin has literally taken him hostage, but that hasn’t affected his mood — he is still the same Alexei whom we love very much.”
09:36 🎥 Alexei Navalny at a court hearing.
11:58❗The Foreign Ministry strikes back.
15:00 “The Foreign Ministry is covering up this entire FSB scheme, trying in every possible way to throw everyone off track. They’ve come up with this geopolitical strategy: every time, they’ll just send the OPCW the same set of utterly stupid questions.”
21:15 “How many times do we have to go over this: traces were found on the bottles that we removed from Alexei’s hotel room in Tomsk on video. And why, for the hundred-and-fiftieth-thousandth time, should the foreign ministries of several countries have to answer Russia’s idiotic question about a bottle?”
26:03 “It’s actually astonishing how many people voluntarily defend murderers. They know they are defending murderers — Putin and the FSB officers who, as has long since been obvious and proven to everyone, tried to kill Navalny. And yet the Russian Foreign Ministry has shown itself to be like an obedient little lapdog.”
33:33❗PACE report on the poisoning.
41:23 PACE report: https://pace.coe.int/en/news/8548/pace-committee-calls-on-russia-to-launch-an-independent-and-effective-investigation-into-the-poisoning-of-alexei-navalny
47:29❗Hunting the killers.
48:55 🎥 We are looking for witnesses. Reward: 3,000,000 rubles (about $40,000): https://youtu.be/csQ9sTbDqWk
55:30❗Putin-Biden talks.
58:39 “Before he was elected, Biden was aggressive toward Putin and made many promises to fight hard against the lawlessness Putin creates. Now what we see from him are conciliatory phone calls.”
01:00:38 🎥 A Buk surface-to-air missile system was spotted at a military field camp near the village of Maslovka outside Voronezh.
01:03:43❗How the plane was forced to land in Belarus.
01:07:15❗Statement from members of Tuva’s election commission.
01:07:59 “I don’t really understand what these people were counting on. When the system asks you to lie — ‘You lie, and we’ll pay you for it’ — that should tell you the system is capable of deception. So what do you expect? That you’re some kind of exception?”
01:10:18❗VK has a new owner.
01:11:13 “It has now become clear that for many years Alisher Usmanov was simply holding Putin’s stake — the one it was inconvenient to register directly in Putin’s name.”
01:16:58❗Bastrykin gone mad.
01:18:50 “Now some other patriots have seriously appealed to Bastrykin, and apparently they are going to punish the person who made the joke and originally wrote that satirical post. The level of absurdity keeps getting higher and higher every day.”
01:20:04❗A fine over a fake channel.
01:21:40❗Why torture happens in Russia: https://youtu.be/E_2Vy9B8hic
01:24:45 “There is no way to insure yourself against torture in Russia. There is no universal recipe for making sure you won’t be tortured. If you live in Russia, the risk that Russian cops will torture you is not zero.”
01:25:20 🎥 Anton Krasovsky on the ‘so-called torture.’
01:28:11❗Putin’s meeting with members of the Human Rights Council.
01:31:40 🎥 Putin called bullying ‘bowling.’
01:34:26❗The police are being given even more powers.
01:37:10 “What conclusion can we draw? They are allowed everything, and we are allowed nothing. Russia is a country of cops and Vladimir Putin.”
01:37:54❗Interview with Avdotya.
01:39:51 “Chubais is a symbol of missed opportunities and empty promises, a symbol of the absence of accountability, the absence of any real reputation, and a symbol of the fact that if Putin likes you, you can get away with absolutely anything.”
01:47:20 “The hospital that this same Putin was supposed to build — but didn’t, and stole the money for — and now people are dying. Now you’re building it with private donations while gushing with tears and drool in admiration of Putin.”
01:59:38 “It’s a real talent: to throw away so much money and still keep a straight face. While everyone around you is running around screaming, ‘Panic, panic, panic. We’ve lost everything!’ Out of the hundreds of companies we invested in, only one really took off.”
02:06:09 Answers to viewers’ questions.
02:12:57❗Navalny’s real approval ratings.
02:18:29 “We congratulate you on first place on YouTube, because you watched this film. We will try to make something similar and come up with something new. Most importantly: Russia will be free. And freedom for Alexei Navalny.”
