Although Navalny’s allies point the finger squarely at the Kremlin, the activist has built up a long list of powerful enemies

Navalny has backed protests in the far eastern city of Khabarovsk over the arrest of popular “systemic opposition” governor Sergei Furgal and raised the spectre of more losses for United Russia in future votes.Milov also points to the speed with which dissent gathered ground online in neighbouring Belarus, where almost three weeks of mass protests against the 26-year strongman rule of Russia-backed Alexander Lukashenko has spooked the Kremlin.

In response, Usmanov posted two videos on social media addressed to “Alexei-damn-you-loser-Navalny” in which the billionaire said: “I spit on you.” He later won a court case against Navalny ordering the video investigation to be removed from the internet. “If there isn’t a convincing public investigation the opposition will point the finger at the authorities. If they weren’t involved, it shouldn’t be hard to get to the bottom of it and find some sort of scapegoat, and that could be absolutely anyone. There are a fair number of crazy people sitting in the woods with grenade launchers,” the person says.

Angela Merkel, the German chancellor, and French President Emmanuel Macron stood side by side at a press conference to offer Navalny medical services and asylum.
