16.02.2025 ⇢ Day Navalny's Shadow Met Saudi Dawn
⌨The first anniversary of Navalny's death dominated morning coverage, with large crowds gathering at his grave in Moscow and global memorial events. His mother and widow made public statements demanding justice, while state media maintained minimal coverage of the commemorations.
By midday, attention shifted to diplomatic developments as US and Russian delegations prepared for talks in Saudi Arabia. The Kremlin released details of the Putin-Trump conversation, emphasizing its "constructive tone" while maintaining Ukraine's exclusion from initial negotiations. Reports emerged of Trump seeking an Easter ceasefire.
Evening brought news of three civilian deaths from drone strikes in Belgorod region, while Russian forces claimed advances near Krasnoarmeysk. The date for Saudi talks was confirmed for February 18, marking a significant shift from the Munich Security Conference's increasingly pessimistic tone about European involvement in peace negotiations.
