Harris first met Yulia Navalnaya at a security conference in Munich a few hours after the news of her husband's death broke. In April, she wrote an article about Yulia for a special issue of TIME magazine dedicated to the 100 Most Influential People of 2024.

And in August, after the release of 16 political prisoners from Russian prisons as part of an exchange with several Western countries, Kamala Harris called Yulia Navalnaya and said she would continue to support all those who are fighting for democracy and freedom.

Pennsylvania, where, according to LinkedIn, Daria Navalnaya works, is one of the seven most important states for both US presidential candidates, the so-called "swing state." According to polls, the vote is still almost equally divided between Harris and her GOP rival Donald Trump, but in Pennsylvania, Harris is still symbolically ahead of Trump.
