MOSCOW — A Russian judge on Monday ordered opposition leader Alexei Navalny jailed for 30 days, a ruling that comes after the leading Kremlin critic returned to Russia from Germany where he was recovering from nerve agent poisoning that he blames on President Vladimir Putin's government. The ruling concluded an hours-long court hearing at a police precinct where Navalny was being held since his arrest at a Moscow airport on Sunday evening sparked sharp reactions, both at home and around the world. A crowd of Navalny supporters outside the precinct shouted “Shame!” as the judge announced the ruling and Navalny's allies immediately called for protests. His arrest had already prompted a wave of criticism from U.S. and European officials, adding to existing tensions between Russia and the West. His top strategist, Leonid Volkov, announced preparations for “large rallies" on Saturday “all across the country.” “Don't be afraid, take to the streets,” Navalny said in a video statement released after the ruling was announced. “Don't come out for me, come out for yourselves and your future.” The 44-year-old Navalny, Putin’s most well-known critic, campaigned to challenge him in the 2018 presidential election but was barred from running. He has issued scores of damning reports over the years about corruption in Russia under Putin’s regime. After recuperating for months in Berlin after his Aug. 20 poisoning, he returned to Russia on Sunday evening despite warnings that he would be immediately arrested. As expected, Navalny was detained at passport control at Moscow's Sheremetyevo Airport after the plane was diverted from landing at another Moscow airport in what was seen as an attempt to foil supporters who had gathered to cheer the arrival of their hero. Russia’s prison service said he had violated probation terms from a suspended sentence on a 2014 money-laundering conviction, which he says is contrived and politically motivated. The service said it would seek to have Navalny serve his 3 1/2-year sentence behind bars. His allies dismissed the move as an attempt by the Kremlin to keep him from coming back to Russia to continue his political activities. A court hearing on the prison service’s motion to have Navalny serve his suspended sentence in prison is scheduled for Feb. 2, according to his lawyers. Calls for Navalny’s immediate release have come from European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, the office of the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights, British Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab and top officials of other EU nations. German government spokesman Steffen Seibert noted that "the Russian authorities have arrested the victim of an attempted assassination with a chemical weapon, not the perpetrator” and called for Navalny's release. U.S. President-elect Joe Biden’s pick for national security adviser, Jake Sullivan, also called on Russian authorities to free Navalny, and the outgoing U.S. secretary of state, Mike Pompeo, said the U.S. “strongly condemns” the decision to arrest the opposition leader. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Monday that the stream of Western reactions to Navalny’s arrest reflected an attempt “to divert attention from the crisis of the Western model of development.” “Navalny’s case has received a foreign policy dimension artificially and without any foundation,” Lavrov said, arguing that the detention was a prerogative of Russian law enforcement agencies. “It’s a matter of observing the law.” Navalny spent the night at the police precinct outside Moscow. In a highly unusual development, the court hearing on Monday was held right at the precinct, and his lawyers said they were notified only minutes before. “It is impossible, what is happening over here,” Navalny said in a video from the improvised courtroom that was posted on his page in the messaging app Telegram. “It is lawlessness of the highest degree.” The judge ordered that Navalny be remanded in custody until Feb. 15, his spokeswoman, Kira Yarmysh, said on Twitter. Navalny’s lawyer, Vadim Kobzev, told the Interfax news agency that the defence plans to appeal the ruling. Navalny fell into a coma while aboard a domestic flight from Siberia to Moscow on Aug. 20. He was transferred from a hospital in Siberia to a Berlin hospital two days later. Labs in Germany, France and Sweden, and tests by the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, established that he was exposed to a Soviet-era Novichok nerve agent. Russian authorities, however, insisted that the doctors who treated Navalny in Siberia before he was airlifted to Germany found no traces of poison. Russia refused to open a full-fledged criminal inquiry, citing a lack of evidence that Navalny was poisoned, and Russian officials have challenged Germany to provide proof of the poisoning. Last month, Navalny released the recording of a phone call he said he made to a man he alleged was a member of a group of officers of Russia's Federal Security Service, or FSB, who purportedly poisoned him in August and then tried to cover it up. The FSB has dismissed the recording as fake. Navalny has been a thorn in the Kremlin’s side for a decade, unusually durable in an opposition movement often demoralized by repression. Russian authorities have launched multiple criminal investigations against him, and he has been tried and convicted in two separate criminal cases widely seen as politically motivated. In December 2014, Navalny was convicted on charges of fraud and money-laundering and received a 3 1/2-year suspended sentence, which he denounced as politically motivated and which the European Court of Human Rights found “arbitrary and manifestly unreasonable.” The sentence carried a probation period that was to expire in December 2020. Authorities said the politician was subject to regular in-person checks with law enforcement officers as a condition of his probation. In December, days before his probation period was supposed to end, Russia’s prison service accused Navalny of not appearing for these checks, including when he was convalescing in Germany. Navalny has repeatedly vowed to return to Russia despite the threats of arrest. As he bordered a plane bound for Moscow on Sunday, he brushed off concerns about being detained again in Russia, saying: “It's impossible. I'm an innocent man.” ___ Vladimir Isachenkov in Moscow, Geir Moulson and Frank Jordans in Berlin contributed to this report. Daria Litvinova, The Associated Press

Pandémie oblige, les courses Cryo seront livrées en formule pour emporter cette année. Les participants auront l’occasion de se lancer un défi personnel ou encore de trouver un parcours de 32 km pour une course nocturne, le 20 février. Au passage, les coureurs en profiteront pour faire une collecte de fonds pour la Fondation Sur la pointe des pieds, qui organise des expéditions thérapeutiques pour les jeunes atteints du cancer. Il n’a fallu que deux éditions pour que les courses Cryo s’imposent comme un événement important dans le monde de la course au Québec. « On a connu un succès phénoménal pour nos deux premières éditions avec plus de 70% des participants qui venaient de l’extérieur de la région », souligne Jean-Charles Fortin, le directeur général de la Fondation. L’an dernier, 64 participants ont relevé le défi de traverser le lac Saint-Jean à la course sur une distance de 32 kilomètres, dont des coureurs du Canada anglais et de la France, et une trentaine de plus ont fait le parcours de 10 km. Selon des entrevues réalisées avec les coureurs des années passées, l’attachement au lac Saint-Jean et à la cause sont les deux facteurs qui incitent les gens à participer à la course Cryo. Cette année, la course prendra une tournure bien différente avec la pandémie. « On ne voulait pas que les gens nous oublient, alors on a décidé de livrer la course Cryo chez les gens », ajoute Jean-Charles Fortin. Ainsi, les participants recevront plusieurs produits phares de la région, dont le fameux chocolat des Pères Trappistes. Une petite partie du lac lui-même sera aussi livrée à la maison, car de l’eau puisée à même le Piékouagami sera envoyée dans une fiole aux participants, un beau clin d’oeil pour garder le lien d’attachement, souligne le directeur général. De plus, cette mesure permettra de continuer à amasser des fonds pour organiser des expéditions thérapeutiques pour les jeunes atteints du cancer. L’an dernier, les course Cryo avaient permis de récolter 171 000 dollars pour la Fondation. Simone et Christophe font une cinquantaine de kilomètres de course par semaine à l’entraîement. Jusqu’à maintenant, une quarantaine de personnes ont décidé de relever le défi lancé par les courses Cryo, soit la moitié de l’objectif visé. Il est encore possible de s’inscrire pour réaliser un défi sur mesure ou courir 32 km de nuit. Simone et Christophe Lussier, deux adeptes de course à pied de 24 et de 27 ans résidant à Montréal, ont décidé de relever ce défi. L’an dernier, ils ont participé à la course sur le Piékougami, complétant l’épreuve après 4h30 de course. « C’est une cause qui nous tient à coeur et ça nous a permis de réaliser un défi d’envergure ensemble », souligne Christophe. Pour recréer l’ambiance comme ils l’ont vécus sur le lac Saint-Jean, Simone et Christophe vont tenter de courir en partie sur un plan d’eau gelé. Pour Simone, lever des fonds pour aider des jeunes atteints du cancer à participer à des expéditions thérapeutiques a une signification particulière, car elle est atteinte d’une condition médicale, une thrombose de la veine porte, qui devait l’empêcher de courir plus de 10 km. C’est grâce à l’aide d’un médecin de Sainte-Justine, Julien Bissonnette, qui est lui-même un marathonien, qu’elle a réussi à bien suivre son état de santé tout en repoussant ses limites physiques. « La course en sentiers m’a donc beaucoup aidée à contrôler ces symptômes et même à les atténuer », dit-elle. Les courses Cryo lui permettent ainsi de donner au suivant. Aider des jeunes atteints du cancer est déjà un objectif en soi. Mais il arrive parfois que cette aide bénéficie aux gens qui nous entoure sans même qu’on le sache. C’est ce qu’a appris Christophe, une semaine avant de traverser le lac Saint-Jean l’an dernier, lorsqu’il a appris qu’un de ses bons amis, Jean-Christophe, avait lui-même pris part à une expédition de la Fondation Sur la pointe des pieds sur la rivière Magpie en 2016. « Mon implication a pris encore plus de sens à mes yeux », dit-il. Jean-Christophe est reconnaissant de voir comment les gens s’impliquent pour aider les jeunes atteints du cancer à voir « la lumière au bout du tunnel », grâce à la réhabilitation par l’aventure. « Je n’avais plus vraiment d’objectifs pendant mes traitements et l’expédition sur la rivière Magpie m’a permis de me dépasser et de me prouver que je pouvais encore partir à l’aventure », soutient aujourd’hui l’adepte de plein air. De plus, il souligne aussi l’aspect humain, les partages avec les autres jeunes atteints du cancer qui lui ont permis de mettre des mots sur ce qu’il vivait, et toutes les amitiés qu’il a pu tisser au cours de ce séjour inoubliable. « Les efforts des participants aux collectes de fonds de la Fondation permettent de concrètement changer le quotidien des jeunes atteints du cancer », a-t-il lancé comme message aux participants. Une course à définir Pour l’instant, Simone et Christophe n’ont pas encore d’itinéraire précis pour la course de 32 km. Selon les règles sanitaires, ils tenteront de convaincre des amis de courir avec eux, peut-être dans les Laurentides, où ils ont un chalet à Lesterel, ou encore à Montréal sur le Mont-Royal. « On aimerait faire une partie sur un lac, pour être exposés aux éléments, comme c’était le cas lors de la course l’an dernier », souligne Simone. D’ici là, les deux adeptes de la course à pied continuent à s’entraîner à raison d’une cinquantaine de kilomètres par semaine, tout en continuant d’amasser des fonds, avec l’objectif de dépasser les 2500 dollars qu’ils avaient chacun amassé pour l’occasion.

A fire at a homeless encampment prompted a shutdown of the US Capitol on January 18, halting a rehearsal for President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration, according to officials and local media.DC Fire and EMS said one person suffered a non-life-threatening injury and firefighters extinguished the blaze at the 100 block of H Street SE quickly. They said the occupant of a tent in which the blaze started said she was using propane, which may have explained reports of an explosion.The Secret Service said the Capitol complex was temporarily shut down out of an abundance of caution, and there was no threat to the public.
