Did he have a choice but to go back? Opposition taking money from interested parties has a long history. Lenin was provided with financial support by the germans.

He was mostly a made up hero for the western audience. Ordinary russians not only gave no-f-f about Navalnyj but considered him a traitor or a trojan horse.
