“Over the years, I have witnessed how women in Russia faced the fact that they were forced to be silent and pushed,” said Navalny. According to her, while the influence of women around the world is growing, in Russia they are "still restrained." So the authorities manage to control society easier, explained Navalny. “To help women believe their rights to choose and voice is a direct call to control. Women in political and activist spaces have to develop incredible strength, stamina and patience in the face of repression, ”Navalny said.

The organization of the Women of the Year was created in 1955 by a group of Britons under the leadership of the mother of six children Tony Lotian. Lotian was inspired by the idea of honoring outstanding women from their country and from around the world every year, inviting to a charity dinner. One of the reasons was the case when Lotian refused to let it into a charitable event intended exclusively for men. In 2024, 450 women were invited to the anniversary, 70s of the award of the Women of the Year award and a charity lunch.
In July, the Basmanny District Court of Moscow arrested Navalny in absentia in the case of participation in the "extremist community". In the fall of 2021, a case of the creation of an extremist community was opened on Navalny and his associates. Later, politics was accused of six more articles of the Criminal Code, in particular in calls for terrorism and rehabilitation of Nazism.
