European Union foreign policy chief Josep Borrell is all set to fly to Russia amid the crackdown against the supporters of opposition leader Alexei Navalny, who were protesting against his arrest. Borrell aims to put some pressure on the Russian authorities to not curb the freedom of speech. The relations between European Union and Russia have not been very good specially after Russia captured Crimea in 2014.
