        If he was to be killed, Putins government would loose its "Democratic mask" if you will. And what is a Democracy without an opposition party?

        It's not like Putin hasn't had other opponents silenced in the past.

        This one is the face of the opposition, Believe me , if Navalnoy was not so popular in Russia as well as here in the West, he would have been dead by now

        Cause Putin's afraid of what this man could do if allowed to run against him in a fair election.

        Reminds me of the scene in A World Apart: that's how dictatorships break political opponents when it's not possible to torture them to death.

        That’s why Trump idolizes Putin. He would be in heaven if he could lock up or kill anyone who speaks against him.
