Russian Authorities Threaten Secret Burial for Alexei Navalny, Prompting Global Outcry
Alexei Navalny's mother has been pressured to agree to a "secret" burial for the Putin critic within three hours, or he would be buried at the Arctic Circle penal colony where he died. His widow alleges he was killed on Putin's orders, while the Kremlin denies this. US President Biden met with Navalny's family and announced over 500 new sanctions against Russia over its invasion of Ukraine and Navalny's death. Navalny's imprisonment and subsequent death have sparked international outrage and condemnation.
