Russia Adds Two Of Navalny's Self-Exiled Associates To Its Wanted List

 

By RFE/RL's Russian Service

The Russian Interior Ministry on December 21 added two self-exiled associates of imprisoned opposition politician Aleksei Navalny -- Maria Pevchikh and Dmitry Nizovtsev -- to its wanted list on unspecified charges. Pevchikh chairs Navalny's International Anti-Corruption Foundation, which Nizovtsev anchors Navalny's Popular Politics YouTube channel. Both are currently residing abroad. Navalny's team said in August that a probe was launched against Pevchikh, Nizovtsev, and six other presenters of Popular Politics on a charge of distributing "fake" information about Russian armed forces involved in Moscow’s ongoing invasion of Ukraine.
