Navalny widow launches TV channel to fight Russia ‘censorship'
TDT | Paris
The widow of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny and Reporters Without Borders yesterday praised the launch of a television channel that aims to bypass censorship in Russia and preserve the Kremlin critic's legacy.
The channel, called Future of Russia, will be broadcast via a free-to-air satellite platform run by the press freedom advocacy group Reporters Without Borders, known by its French abbreviation RSF. Navalny's team hopes to get greater exposure and better reach with the help of the satellite broadcasts, which will feature content that Navalny's team is producing for their YouTube channels in exile.
'I think it will be a long collaboration,' Yulia Navalnaya told reporters in a short statement in Paris.

Kremlin: No 'Negotiations With Terrorists' - We'll Retaliate At 'A Time Of Our Choosing'
Russia says that President Putin is preparing to retaliate at 'a time of our choosing' for all the latest drone and 'terror attacks' – including the targeting of trains and bridges with explosives. 'Russia will respond to Ukraine's latest attacks as and when its military sees fit,' the Kremlin said Thursday. Spokesman Dmitry Peskov confirmed what President Trump revealed of the Putin phone call Wednesday – that the Russian leader made clear that Moscow is obliged to retaliate. Peskov, speaking of Putin's first televised address since the devastating Sunday drone attacks deep inside Russian territory said, 'The president described the Kyiv regime as a terrorist regime, because it was the regime's leadership that consciously gave the order, the command, the order to blow up a passenger train.' 'This is nothing other than terrorism at the state level. This is an important statement by the president,' he added. Putin had accused Ukraine's leadership of orchestrating a terrorist attack on trains carrying civilians in Russia's Bryansk region, which left seven dead and dozens injured in the derailment of the train and collapse of the bridge due to planted explosives on Sunday. The operation appeared in parallel to the 'Operation Spinder's Web' drone attacks. Putin asserted that Ukrainian political leadership was directly behind the strike. 🚨 BREAKING: Putin accuses Ukraine's leadership of orchestrating a terrorist attack on trains carrying civilians in Russia's Bryansk claims the Ukrainian political leadership is directly behind the strike. — Defence Index (@Defence_Index) June 4, 2025 He also made clear in the address that Ukraine's offer of a summit with Zelensky and an immediate ceasefire has been rejected.
