Social network X briefly suspends Navalny’s widow’s account – L’Express

A brief suspension which did not fail to provoke a reaction. The account only after its creation.

Yulia Navalnaïa created this account on Monday after announcing that she was taking over from her husband in his political fight. She published a video there where she accused Russian President Vladimir Putin of having killed Alexeï Navalny and wrote there on Tuesday that she “didn’t care” about the Kremlin’s comments. “Account suspended”, it was indicated on the page of the opponent’s widow, with X indicating without any further explanation to suspend “accounts which violate the Rules of X”.

The late opponent’s team had asked Elon Musk, the owner of the platform, in a tweet to “explain exactly what rules were violated” by Yulia Navalnaïa.

If the American billionaire has deployed, since the start of the Russian invasion in Ukraine two years ago, via his company SpaceX, numerous satellites Starlink to help kyiv, it is now taking more controversial positions on the conflict.
