The imprisonment of Alexie Navalny, the opposition leader and most outspoken critic of Russian President Putin, in a notorious penal colony in Kharp is meant to send a clear message to the Russian people that this is what can happen to you if you get on the wrong side of me.

Putin has steadily restored the Stalinist state based on the politics of fear.

Old-style communism is alive and well in Putin’s Russia.
