Read Time:26 Second
On Saturday, many people gathered outside the Russian embassy in Østerbro, Copenhagen.
That’s written by the media outlet Netavisen Sjælland, which also has pictures from the scene.
A significant portion of those present laid flowers in front of the embassy in memory of the Russian dissident Alexei Navalny, who died in custody on Friday.
In addition to flowers, there were also pictures and posters with words of remembrance and slogans such as “Russia will be free.”
Both Danes and Russians were present at the embassy.
