Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny is promising a campaign of civil disobedience against what he says was a stolen president election by Vladimir Putin.
Navalny says tens of thousands will turn out for street protests in Russian cities and will keep up the protests until their demands are met.
Police arrested Navalny and hundreds of other opposition supporters at an anti-Putin rally in Moscow Monday. He was later released. Many of the protesters chanted "Russia without Putin" and "Power to millions, not to the police."
Round up of opposition activists continued on March 6 in Moscow and St. Petersburg on charge of participation in unsanctioned demonstrations.
At the same time, thousands of Putin supporters rallied and waved the Russian flag outside the Kremlin.
