Almost all the leaders of the opposition were in exile - a year after they planted Navalny. What can they affect Russia from abroad?

This week, Femactivist Daria Serenko was arrested for 15 days: on her page on Instagram they found a post with the symbols of “smart voting” - technologies that the supporters of Alexei Navalny proposed to use in the elections.

After Navalny was sent to the colony in 2021, and his headquarters and the Corruption Fund were recognized as extremist and prohibited in Russia, hundreds of his associates and supporters were forced to leave the country, fearing persecution. According to the “to be precise” platform, about five million people left Russia over 20 years.

In the new episode of the political show “Peppers and Haase”, the presenters argue whether it is possible to achieve changes in Russia from abroad.

In this issue:

• How can Russian emigration act?
• Why do some methods use by the deposition who have left do not work?
• Why are the emigrants reproach that they are divorced from Russia? Is it possible to understand what is actually happening in Russia, being beyond its borders?
