The widow of Russian opponent Alexeï Navalny expected for a speech at the European Parliament. Yulia Navalnaya is in Brussels to attend a meeting of European foreign ministers, just three days after the announcement of her husband's death.

Roberta Metsola, also present, suggested that he come and speak in the Strasbourg hemicycle. She accepts without hesitation. A speech in front of MEPs is a rare honor. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was entitled to it.
