A number of weeks ago, I raised with the Tánaiste the plight of Alexei Navalny, the Russian opposition figure who at that time was incarcerated in an Arctic penal colony. We now know tragically that he was killed in that colony and his funeral has taken place. What is the Tánaiste's response on that? Other political prisoners have also been incarcerated by President Putin, in particular Vladimir Kara-Murza and Ilya Yashin. Does he have anything to say on their plight?
