Leading Russian Dissident Vladimir Kara-Murza Sentenced to 25 Years for Criticizing Ukraine Invasion

Vladimir Kara-Murza, a prominent Russian opposition activist, was sentenced to 25 years in prison for denouncing Russia's war in Ukraine.
Kara-Murza is a journalist and historian who has lobbied Western governments to sanction Russian human rights abusers.
The harsh sentence is part of a wider crackdown by the Kremlin on dissent and free speech.
Kara-Murza has survived two previous poisoning attempts that he blames on Russian authorities.
The verdict has been condemned by Western governments and human rights groups, who are demanding Kara-Murza's immediate release.
