The more interviews I see of Navalny the more I am impressed by his character and bravery. What an extraordinary man.

[XX-rzsi]

A true hero died today, but a legend is born. Alexei to me will always be example of what it means to have balls of steel, vision and clear goal in life. Rest in peace Ljosha

I can't believe he's gone now...

What a guy. He would have been an amazing leader

[cathworksout]

My heart breaks for your family, like-minded countrymen, and really, the world. The terrible loss of such a courageous, brilliant person tears at one's soul.

[maryalicemckeen]

I am very sad. I am in mourning. I feel like a member of my family has died. I am surprised I feel so badly.

[itsomethingreat]

The fact that he has been killed it’s absolutely infuriating.

[linjay]

Feel pity that Russian people couldn’t be governed by this wonderful personality

Saw him once in Bali. It was around 2017, he had rented white little Suzuki and stick NAVALNY 2018 at the back window. He was about to run for president. He was there with his little son, standing in Indomaret and buying him some sweets. I was there with my little daughter. I realized it was him after I left the store. Would have told him how great work he has done.
Sad, very sad.

I am heartbroken for Dasha and her family, for Russia, and for the world. Navalny will live on in his words: "Don't give up."

[katjakittenland]

This man has earned his name to be in the history books, what a hero! Rest in peace, Aleksej...🙏

[myrawest]

What a brave, strong man. Horrible horrible what they did to him. His wife is so brave too.

[AFXLive]

Another man of courage and dignity gone.Evil prevails temporarily.

[cinziasevignani]

I am so impressed by this interview. Powerful and touching at the same time.

[VJaninka]

I endlessly admire the strength, bravery, vitality, humor, passion of this man after everything he´s been through. I must say that I am quite surprised how much I feel touched now by his dead. He wasn´t my relative, my friend, I have never seen him personaly. But I feel something special when I see him talking, something in his eyes, in his voice what makes him special, extraordinary man although he surely wasn´t perfect man. I am terribly sorry for this loss, loss for his family but also loss for all of us who has the same or similar ideals he had. I hope that his loss wasn´t useless, that although Navalny with his uniqueness could hardly be replaced, someday there will be someone who will make it and we will win ideals represented by Navalny over the evil represented by Putin and others around him. All of us could take an example of this bravery beautiful man and try to use it in our ordinary life. Every bit counts.

[girlnextdoor]

Remarkable man. Such a loss for his family and for Russia as well. It‘s not every day somebody with his character and bravery comes along.

[bretts]

He never should have returned to Russia in 2021.
