It was a rare appearance for the Russian opposition leader, who has been sentenced to more than a decade in prison in a series of cases that appear designed to keep him behind bars indefinitely. He has said that he expects to be in prison as long as Vladimir Putin, the Russian president, is alive. Allies say that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the Kremlin’s international isolation make it even less likely he will emerge from jail in the near future.Navalny’s court appearance came on the same day as Ilya Yashin, an ally and prominent anti-war activist in Russia, was detained and jailed for 15 days on an administrative charge.
