A Tribute to Courage and Hope: Remembering Aleksei Navalny in Ghent

During my regular walks downtown Ghent, I stumbled upon a touching scene beneath the city hall. A small tribute had been set up—an arrangement of flowers, candles, and newspaper clippings featuring pictures of Aleksei Navalny. Despite being imprisoned and hidden away in a remote location in Russia, Navalny became a symbol of courage and hope for many Russians near and far. It's clear that there is hope for Navalny's legacy to endure, paving the way for a brighter and better future - Ghent, Belgium
