"I Am Navalny’s Lawyer. I Won’t Let Fear Stop My Work," writes Russian lawyer Leonid Solovyov

“I don’t want to live in such a way that fear determines my choices when I have the experience and financial stability to take risks. Our whole society is gripped with fear, and I don’t want that to determine our future. I hope that sooner or later this period in our country’s history will come to an end, and that judges will find the courage to uphold the laws and the ethical standards they swore to abide by.”
