In a deeply emotional video posted to Navalny's YouTube account, Yulia added to these claims: “Three days ago, Vladimir Putin killed my husband Alexei Navalny.
“Putin killed the father of my children. Putin took away the most precious thing I had in my life: my dearest and most beloved husband.
“Putin wanted to destroy our hope, our freedom, our hopes future. To destroy and nullify it.
“My husband couldn't be broken, and that's exactly why Putin killed him.”
Yulia had not seen her husband for two years before his tragic death, as he was behind bars and she and their two children lived outside Russia Dasha, 22 and Zahar, 15.
The loving widow continued her verbal abuse of Putin and his cronies, as she criticized the tyrant for his “cowardly” ways.
She claimed her husband was murdered by the “shameful” Putin when he ordered Navalny's death “without ever daring to look him in the eye.”
Yulia then continued the courageous speech, saying: “They hide his body, do not show it to his mother, do not give it to her to mourn.
“They lie and wait for the tracks of another Putin novichok to disappear.”

“He believed in you, in us, in our strength, in our future, in the fact that we deserve better.
“He believed not only in words, but also in actions, so deeply and sincerely that he was willing to give his life for it.
“We must use every opportunity to fight against war, against corruption, against injustice, to fight for fair elections and freedom of speech, to fight to reclaim our country.”
What is novichok?
NOVICHOK – the Russian for newcomer – refers to a group of advanced nerve agents developed by the Soviet Union.
They were known as fourth-generation chemical weapons and reportedly are five times more powerful than the infamous VX gas.
According to scientists who worked on the program, the goal was to create extremely powerful nerve agents that were undetectable with normal instruments.
The poison is designed to be made from two relatively harmless materials that are mixed together when necessary, making it easier and safer to store and transport.
Novichok agents, dispersed as an ultrafine powder or gel rather than as a vapor, belong to the class of inhibitors called “organophosphate acetylcholinesterase.”
They prevent the normal breakdown of a neurotransmitter called acetylcholine, which, when built up, causes the muscles to contract involuntarily.
Because the victim's heart and diaphragm do not function properly, this leads to respiratory and cardiac arrest.
Those affected usually die of total heart failure or asphyxiation, as copious fluid secretions fill their lungs.
But even if they don't die, the substance can also cause severe nerve damage, leaving victims permanently disabled, Russian scientists say.

“We are seeing a deliberate murder before our eyes, and not something else,” she said.
“Not even a death due to difficult circumstances (in the Arctic prison).”
People in Russia have said that he could possibly have been drugged or poisoned inside the colony run by Colonel Vadim Kalinin51.
Former FSB Colonel Gennady Gudkov (67), an opposition politician like Navalny, supported these theories.
He said: “He was held… under torture conditions.
“Either his body did not survive these tortures (or) they could have given drugs that cause heart failure, they could have given a poison.
“We will only know the truth when Putin is gone. The fact that they killed him is beyond any doubt.”
The Kremlin spies are also said to have visited Alexei Navalny's prison, just days before he died.
