     Russian Anti-Corruption Campaigner Slams Putin's Crackdown on Dissent

   Russian anti-corruption campaigner and opposition blogger Alexei
   Navalny on Thursday slammed President Vladimir Putin's increasing
   crackdown on dissenting voices with a law against 'undesirable NGOs.'
   The legal measure follows 2012 legislation allowing the branding of any
   group that receives foreign funding as a 'foreign agent' and is part of
   a Kremlin-fueled campaign that associates its critics with a so-called
   'fifth column' of national traitors. Daniel Schearf reports.
