Kremlin spy and former American convict sent to humiliate Navalny in prison

MOSCOW – Russia’s opposition leader Aleksey Navalny is on a hunger strike in a notorious penal colony. He says he suffers from back pain while prison guards “torture” him by waking him up every hour of the night. Independent observers of the penitentiary were desperate to verify it, with hundreds of Russian public figures sending open letters and petitions to the authorities, demanding an end to the humiliating treatment. Human rights activists told the Kremlin more clearly on Friday: “He is being killed slowly.”

The answer? Instead of sending an independent human rights observer or a doctor to visit Navalny in prison, the Kremlin sent Maria Butina, a Russian spy and former US convict. Now a pro-Kremlin activist, Butina pleaded guilty in an American court in 2018 for acting as a Russian agent while infiltrating the political circles of the RNA and the Republican Party.
