    In 2006, a lawyer named Alexei Navalny started a blog where he wrote about corruption in his home country of Russia. It’s the most prominent problem under the regime of Vladimir Putin, who has ruled Russia since 2000. Putin has systematically taken over the country’s independent media, oligarchy, elections, and laws to cement his own power and wield corruption to his advantage.
    That’s what Navalny set out to expose. And in 2010, he published a groundbreaking investigation into a state-owned transportation company, Transneft, which was funneling state money into the hands of its executives. The post launched Navalny into politics.
    By 2016, he had become the face of Russia’s opposition movement, run for mayor, and was running for president against Putin himself. Navalny was unifying Russia’s opposition like no politician had before. That’s why the Kremlin tried to kill him. Navalny survived the assassination attempt, launching a movement never before seen in Russia.

    Guys, give Sam Ellis (the guy who made this video) a break. There's no way he and Vox could have known that Johnny Harris was working on the same topic. It takes weeks to make videos like this so Vox couldn't just scrap the project even though Johnny's video was first. And Sam has made some fantastic videos for Vox before so stop comparing him and Johnny, just subscribe to both :)

      As the economy returns and is aided by Federal stimulus money, it could significantly aid US stock market growth. A shrinking US dollar could help the economy too by making imports more expensive and boosting US exports. Dow, Russell, S&P and Nasdaq will likely all rise to new record heights this new year but Popular crypto analyst Dr Rodrick Jonathan said the new strain of Covid 19 virus being discovered is going to put a scare into the economy and the Cryptomarket in the next 3 months so He warns new Bitcoin buyers to be careful as the picture is not clear yet and for now you can only make profit by trading your Bitcoin with a strategy instead of panic selling, for me i advice you to multiply the little you have with haward's strategy, i was able to make $ 12,000 with $ 3,500 in 3 weeks with his Bitcoin trading strategy, reach him on W hats App + 1 8 1 7 4 7 6 2 6 5 4 i pray we all have a successful year 2021
