More quotes by Alexei Navalny
Putin needs to terrorize his own elite. He is more afraid of those in his own surroundings than any protests there are people there who are at least as critical as I am because they see up close that the system doesn't work. He wants to silence them.
Alexei Navalny
Anyone who commits a xenophobic crime has to be brought to justice.
Alexei Navalny
I encourage all my colleagues to run for office themselves. But it has become extremely difficult in this system to become a prominent opposition politician. I no longer have any rivals to have a debate with. I need competition. And the people will soon tire of me. They say: Navalny, It's always just Navalny. We want to see someone new.
Alexei Navalny
I've always seen my campaigns against corruption as political work of a purer form than what opposition leaders usually do. All they do is hold roundtables and release political statements, which is all well and good. But there are concrete things that need to get done in order to achieve the basic goal of every opposition politician.
Alexei Navalny
I am not ready to back away from my views.
Alexei Navalny
Foreign countries should impose sanctions against Putin's corrupt network.
Alexei Navalny
Since Russia has the largest number of illegal immigrants, second only to the US, and immigrants from Central Asia bring in drugs, I'm calling for a visa requirement for all those wonderful people from Tajikistan and Uzbekistan.
Alexei Navalny
Maybe Putin wanted to fire Medvedev , but how is he supposed to do that after my film?
Alexei Navalny
I'm only sort of a politician.
Alexei Navalny
President Putin will run again in the 2018 election. He wants to be the czar of this new Russian empire that he is rebuilding. I think he is really obsessed with the idea.
Alexei Navalny
I am different from Putin, that Russia should not isolate itself. Everything that happens in our country is justified through Syria or Ukraine. But when one's own citizens only make 300 euros, one can't have much clout in foreign policy.
Alexei Navalny
People don't believe in positive changes anymore.
Alexei Navalny
People aren't really afraid of my views. They are just afraid of the word 'nationalism.'
Alexei Navalny
As far as I know, the people who are against my candidacy now have the upper hand in the Kremlin. They say: Who knows what the election result will be? We already made that mistake once. And they are also afraid of all the things I would say if they let me run.
Alexei Navalny
People hate politicians. And I can understand why.
Alexei Navalny
Russia spends enormous, senseless amounts of money on the army and the police. We have one of the top rankings in the world when it comes to the number of police officers - but when it comes to the number of murders, we are also right at the top.
Alexei Navalny
Politics is traditionally a male domain in Russia. Until now, women have only been accessories. Now, female protest groups are emerging - not because men came up with the idea, but through their own efforts. That's something new for Russia.
Alexei Navalny
Nobody wants a political prisoner, but a political emigrant is no problem.
Alexei Navalny
We should fulfill the Minsk Protocol. The main reason for the sanctions is that Russia broke a taboo: It triggered a war in Europe. Crimea is a problem, but the most painful part of the sanctions is tied to the war in the Donbas. As soon as Russia takes real steps to prevent shots from being fired there, this part of the sanctions will be lifted.
Alexei Navalny
Without any doubt, I am striving for power.
