On 25 December 2025, a military court in Moscow sentenced Sergei Udaltsov, coordinator of the "Left Front" movement, to six years in prison on charges of “supporting terrorism.”
His so-called crime consisted solely of an article he published in 2023, where he condemned the arrest of members of the Marxist Circle in Ufa and stated that the accusations of terrorism against them were unfounded. For expressing solidarity and voicing a political opinion, Udaltsov is now being punished with years behind bars.
