Vice President Kamala Harris spoke today with Yulia Navalnaya, widow of Alexey Navalny, following the release of 16 individuals from Russia, including three American citizens, one American green card holder, as well as five German citizens and seven Russian citizens who were political prisoners, several of whom worked with Navalny in his efforts to combat corruption and to build a free, democratic Russia. The Vice President welcomed the release of these individuals and reaffirmed that she will continue to stand with those fighting for freedom in Russia and around the world. The Vice President commended Navalnaya for her courage in continuing her husband's work for justice and the rule of the law in Russia. The Vice President previously met with Navalnaya in February 2024 at the Munich Security Conference, just hours after the terrible news broke of Navalny's death in a Russian prison. The Vice President wrote a piece about Yulia Navalnaya for TIME Magazine's "The 100 Most Influential People of 2024."
