Top Putin critic flees Russia
Russian opposition politician Boris Nadygdin, known for his opposition to President Vladimir Putin's policies and the attack on Ukraine, has announced his escape from Russia to Paris. Nadygdin posted a video from Paris showing himself in front of the Eiffel Tower, confirming that he is still alive and free, after his electoral campaign was hit and he faced legal charges. Nadygdin had sought to participate in the 2024 Russian presidential elections, but was barred from candidacy after being labeled a "foreign agent" and convicted of posting extremist symbols. This highlights the escalating repression of opposition figures in Russia following the start of the Ukrainian conflict in 2022.
