Navalny's widow vows to continue husband's work

Yulia Navalnaya said her husband was killed because President Putin couldn't break him.

Yulia Navalnaya, the widow of the Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny, released a video calling on supporters to stand with her and blamed President Vladimir Putin for her husband's death.
