MOSCOW On February 14, a small group of women in the Russian capital marked Valentine s Day by holding a demonstration in support of jailed women they consider political prisoners. They also wanted to encourage Yulia Navalnaya, the wife of imprisoned opposition politician Aleksei Navalny. I admire those who know that they could face more than just fines but who come to protests anyway, said a retiree who asked to be identified only as Marina and who regularly attends opposition demonstrations. When you know what those people are risking, you are ashamed to sit at home and complain in your kitchen.
