He spent five months in Germany recovering from alleged poisoning for which he blames the Russian government.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, dozens of protestors also rallied outside of the Russian Embassy in Washington D.C. in support of the jailed activist.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He is trying to open the eyes of the Russian people and to show them the level of corruption that is happening in Russia by government officials,&#8221; protestor Alexander Voytsekhov said. &#8220;They don&#8217;t want that to be known by Russian people and that&#8217;s the main thing. They want to shut him down and they want to get rid of him.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Those at the demonstration organized by the &#8216;Free Russia Foundation&#8217; said many Russian activists are working tirelessly to expose the government and its large scale of corruption.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The U.S. strongly condemns the use of harsh tactics against peaceful protesters and journalists in Russia today.
