This episode profiles Yulia Navalnaya, the wife of slain Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny. It traces her journey from a relatively private figure providing critical support to her activist husband, to becoming a prominent advocate for him on the global stage when he was poisoned in 2020. Following Navalny's death in February 2024, the article examines Navalnaya's declaration that she will carry on his work, and speculates on how she may emerge as a new face of the opposition movement in Russia. It discusses the significance of her leadership as a potential turning point, with many hopes riding on how she navigates the political landscape to champion democratic reforms in Russia. The article frames her as a quiet yet resilient force for change, illuminated by her husband's legacy.
