To defeat Putin, stop being boring, says Navalny's widow Yulia Navalnaya

Addressing the European Parliament, Yulia Navalnaya has said her late husband Alexei Navalny - Russia's most prominent opposition figure - will "never see what the beautiful Russia of the future will look like, but we must see it".

Ms Navalnaya said the "murder" of her husband - who died in an Arctic penal colony on 16 February - showed that Putin was "capable of anything" and could not be negotiated with.

Few official details have been released on the cause of Navalny's death. His funeral on Friday is likely to have a heavy police presence.
