This is the best summary I could come up with:
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on Tuesday told reporters the invitation had been extended to Ms Navalnaya, but said the Russian opposition figure will not be in First Lady Jill Biden’s box above the House floor when Mr Biden addresses Congress on Thursday.
Mr Navalny’s funeral took place on Friday in Moscow, with thousands of people paying their respects under a large police presence.
She is taking on a daunting task, and it remains unclear if she, in cooperation with her husband’s followers and other opposition groups, can seriously challenge the rule of Mr Putin, who’s set to be re-elected once again in March to another six-year term.
With loyalist security forces, a subservient judiciary, a controlled media environment, and a legislature consisting of a ruling party and pliable opposition factions, the Kremlin manipulates elections and suppresses genuine dissent”.
While Ms Navalnaya has accused Mr Putin of killing her husband, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov called the claim “unfounded” as well as “insolent”.
At a meeting of the European Union’s Foreign Affairs Council last month, she told leaders not to recognize the results of the Russian election in March and to place sanctions on more of Mr Putin’s close allies.
