Ok kiddo, so in Russia there are some people who might get in trouble with the government because they don't agree with what the government does or they try to make changes. These people are called political prisoners.
Now, imagine if you got in trouble with your teacher because you wanted to play a game during class but your teacher wanted you to pay attention to a lesson. You might have to stay after school or go to detention as a punishment, right? Well, political prisoners in Russia are kind of like that, but more serious.
In Russia, some people might get arrested and put in jail for speaking out against the government or trying to make changes. This is against the law and people should be free to share their opinions, but unfortunately, the government in Russia does not always allow this.
Some of the people who are political prisoners in Russia include activists, journalists, and opposition politicians. They are often accused of doing things that they did not actually do, just because the government wants to silence them.
This is not fair because everyone should have the right to speak freely and express their opinions. Political prisoners in Russia deserve to be treated fairly and have their voices heard just like everyone else.
