A senior aide to jailed opposition figure Alexei Navalny called Monday for fresh anti-Kremlin demonstrations this weekend, after tens of thousands of people rallied across the country on Saturday.
Leonid Volkov, the head of the opposition politician's regional network, called on Twitter for Russians across the country to take to the streets on January 31 "for Navalny's freedom, for freedom for all, and for justice".
