The US Secretary of State, the French President, the German Minister of Foreign Affairs, the British Foreign Secretary and other ‘big friends of democracy’ in Russia seem to be very concerned by the recent decision of the Russian court to sentence Alexey Navalny to 2 years and 8 months in jail.
The suspended sentence was changed with the real one as a result of the regular and blatant violations of the terms of the suspended sentence by Navalny. The initial sentence was 3.5 years, but he already served a part of the term under house arrest.
The absurdity of the situation is that his initial sentence was related to corruption – something Navalny allegedly fights against in Russia.
Nonetheless, MSM and the Western leadership do not care about real facts and blatantly try to meddle in the Russian internal affairs demanding to release their useful toll in the campaign against Russia.
Such actions are unprecedented and it is easy to imagine how the United States or any other ‘democratic state’ would react of China, Iran or Russia send their diplomats to their courts and start making statements demanding Washington to finally respect at least some democracy and to not persecute the Capitol protesters or so.
The United States is deeply concerned by Russia’s actions toward Aleksey Navalny. We reiterate our call for his immediate and unconditional release as well as the release of all those wrongfully detained for exercising their rights.

Macron even speaks Russian now:
Приговор Алексею @Navalny недопустим. Политические разногласия ни при каких обстоятельствах не являются преступлением. Мы призываем к его немедленному освобождению. Соблюдение прав Человека, так же, как и демократических свобод, не могут быть предметом обсуждения.

Das Urteil gegen Alexej @Navalny ist ein herber Schlag gegen fest verbriefte Freiheitsrechte und Rechtsstaatlichkeit in #Russland. Der EGMR hat dieses Verfahren bereits 2017 als willkürlich kritisiert. Alexej #Nawalny muss unverzüglich freigelassen werden.

Meanwhile, the Russian Foreign Ministry decided to remind its Western counterparts so ‘concerned’ about the alleged ‘Police brutality’ in Russia how the real police brutality looks like.
“The facts of police violence against peaceful protesters in the OSCE countries are stubbornly ignored by officials and mainstream media.
For the doubters, a visual demonstration was prepared, “in contrast”. As with them, and as with us. Feel the difference,” the Russian side said in a comment to the video dedicated to the situation.
Факты полицейского насилия в отношении мирных протестующих в странах ОБСЕ упорно игнорируются официальными лицами и ведущими СМИ.
Для сомневающихся подготовили наглядную демонстрацию, "на контрасте". Как у них, и как у нас. Почувствуйте разницу.
