context_page_description: Alexei Anatolievich Navalny is a Russian politician and anti-corruption activist. He came to international prominence by organizing demonstrations, and running for office, to advocate reforms against corruption in Russia, Russian President Vladimir Putin, and Putin's government. In 2012, The Wall Street Journal described him as "the man Vladimir Putin fears most".
  Navalny was a Russian Opposition Coordination Council member and the leader of the opposition political Progress Party. In September 2013, he ran in the Moscow mayoral election, supported by the RPR-PARNAS party. He came in second, with 27% of the vote, losing to incumbent mayor Sergei Sobyanin, a Putin appointee. Navalny claimed election fraud, and that he actually received more votes. Navalny became well known through his LiveJournal blog, but later switched to YouTube, where he has four million subscribers, and Twitter, where he has 2.2 million followers. Through these channels he published videos and documents about corruption by Russian state officials, organized political demonstrations, and promoted his campaigns for office.
