At the risk of being repetitious, this is the first of what will be our daily count on this site until the question is answered. Navalny hasn’t been seen by his attorneys since December 6th; he has now been missing for 18 days. U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said again on Saturday: “We are deeply concerned about the whereabouts of Alexei Navalny, who has now been missing in Russia’s prison system for nearly three weeks. We once more call for his immediate release and an end to the continued repression of independent voices in Russia.” Thank you, Secretary Blinken, for keeping up the pressure. And please, let us also not forget Paul Whelan, Vladimir Kara-Murza, and the other political prisoners currently in captivity in Russia.
