Kasparov: West must not ignore Navalny

Posted by archive 
'Long-time democracy campaigner and Russian chess grandmaster Garry Kasparov has said he is very concerned for the health of Alexei Navalny who is three weeks into a prison hunger strike.

He told BBC World News: "We understand that the West cannot save Navalny, but it can seal his fate by simply ignoring him."

It was better to defend dissidents than to mourn martyrs, he said.'
