Navalny Ordered To Remain In Kirov Until Trial Complete

KIROV, Russia -- Kremlin foe Aleksei Navalny says his retrial in a politically charged case is being rushed to a conclusion and that he expects the court will convict him in order to bar him from running for president in 2018, when Vladimir Putin may seek a fourth Kremlin term.

"Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow there will be final statements by the prosecutors, lawyers, and defendants, and the verdict will be announced soon after that," Navalny told journalists on February 1, during a break in the trial in the provincial city of Kirov, some 800 kilometers northeast of Moscow.

Navalny said that the judge was conducting the trial at a fast pace to "impede my election campaign," adding that he expects a guilty verdict but will remain politically active regardless of the outcome.

He's running for President, you see how they treat their citizens. He would end their war and probably give back Crimea. It's the ruling criminals that are causing trouble. I think our admin. will wise up.

You mean as in wise up and treat Putin for what he truly is. A thug.
