Russia: Hundreds of pro-Navalny protesters arrested

United Nations human rights experts have warned that the life of imprisoned Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny is in danger and he should be allowed to leave the country.

Meanwhile hundreds of people have been arrested across the country at demonstrations in support of the Mr Navalny.

But President Vladamir Putin used his annual address to the nation to say that Moscow would respond 'harshly' to any foreign interference in its affairs.

The protests weren't smaller!
I've watched the livestream, the hosts said that it looked like the previous protests, except there were multiple large "wings" of the protest.

England had their civil war in the 1640’s, France had their revolution in 1789, USA in 1776 and their governments are pretty much democratised, not perfect, but getting there.
Russia had their revolution in 1917, but what happened? Well, they had Communism, and it took a hundred years for them to realise that having Communist rulers in power who murder and enslave millions of their own people is possibly not the best way to go. Things change very, very slowly in Russia, like an oil tanker taking a U-turn in the Suez Canal. What takes other countries about 10 years to change for the better, takes 100 years for Russia. More so for China.
