The Kremlin said Wednesday the presidential election was absolutely clean and President Vladimir Putin had won a unique victory of unprecedented significance.
It was commenting after accusations by Russia's opposition the Kremlin had rigged the results in Putin's favor.
The Kremlin said the election result showed an overwhelming majority of Russians had consolidated around him. "We will ensure that no one in the world recognizes Putin as the legitimate president. That no one sits down with him at the negotiating table." Yulia Navalnaya has vowed to continue her husband's work. She and Navalny's supporters say Putin is responsible for his death, a claim denied by the Kremlin.
