"Our" demons

Yakemenko promised to replace all the “cowardly bosses”, officials and governors

"Our" demons. The “ours” movement arose as an answer to an external threat-as its founding fathers say. But his main task is to protect power from the threat of internal. On December 22, Kremlin youth announced the creation of the headquarters of uniform actions, which during the presidential campaign should resist the "swamp" chaos. Their new slogan: "V means vladimir." How, at what means and under whose control the main youth project of the Duumviri exists - ideologists, commissars and overseers found the New Times found out
On December 6, on the Triumphal Square, where the opposition were going to protest against the violations of the election, “ours” showed how they will fulfill their main task for which they were prepared for all these years - to flood the streets of Moscow in the event of a mass exit of the population to protest rallies. To this end, thousands of activists were brought to Moscow and placed on the VVC. Three weeks before the parliamentary elections, Yakemenko, at a meeting with activists, prepared them for a more bloody scenario: “Not a winter Seliger will be and not funny dances in a huge pavilion, but really a fight may occur on the squares. I must say to people: perhaps there will be contractions, and you must be ahead. We are not going to put girls and boys in the front rows who are not ready for this. But in the second rows we are going. If we collect fifteen thousand, this will be enough for us to control the political situation in the country from December 4. ” When asked what to do if the wounded appear, the head of Rosmolodezh answered extremely cynically: “Correctly I understand that we are talking about those who can suffer? So, friends, this question is rhetorical. I believe that a wounded person means an unlucky person. I could not protect myself. ”
So far it has not reached the fights and the wounded, but as the events in Bolotnaya Square showed - and the “ours” will not be able to crush if tens of thousands of people come to the streets. The next round of street confrontation will happen in March.
Give the revolution in the face
In January 2005, in a rented apartment in St. Petersburg, the chief Kremlin ideologist Vladislav Surkov held a meeting with three dozen future activists of “ours”, led by the leader of the “Walking Together” movement Vasily Yakemenko. By that time, a request for a new large -scale youth movement was formed in the Kremlin, capable of replacing the “walking together”.
In Kyiv, by that time, tens of thousands of people had been on the Maidan for several weeks, and Surkov formulated the task of the new movement: to stop the “orange threat”, “to prevent an American invasion” - Vladimir Putin intends to build his presidential campaign in the same slogans in 2012. From December 2004 to March 2005, literally all political scientists several times a day stated that the "Orange Revolution" in Russia was impossible, but in the administration of domestic policy the AP were still confident in the need to fight this very threat. The struggle turned out to be “successful” - on the principle of “self -retreating prophecy,” the Kremlin did everything possible to expel tens of thousands of the least motivated people to rallies.
“At first, Surkov had a special youth ideological group,” says Oleg one of the commissioners Oleg, “but he dispersed her: they worked without a drive. The name "ours" was bought by Nevzorov, ideology was written in PAP in Pavlovsky. " Gleb Pavlovsky himself commented on his participation as follows: “There was a strong desire not to give, not let the country take away, resist the“ orange revolutions ”. The experience of Ukraine is obvious, everyone was heard about him, the statements of the American government were known. I then formulated the main task, sorry for the rudeness, as follows: give a revolution in the face. This task of the youth, I must say, started it. ” Perhaps she started, but the prospects drawn by Vasily Yakemenko were even sweeter: “You will change all incompetent, cowardly bosses, officials, journalists, governors and other guys who have long lost the desire and right to rule the country.” Later, theses about youth as the last stronghold of the country were announced at the Constituent Conference of “Ours” at the Russian Academy of Sciences on April 15, 2005. In the walls of the Russian Academy of Sciences, a project of the movement manifesto was adopted, which placed everything in places: he designated enemies, friends and methods of struggle and friendship. The enemies were called "the Union of Communists, Nazis and Liberals, united by hatred of our President Vladimir Putin." The course of Vladimir Putin and everyone who supported him was in friends.
The debut of “ours” - May 15, 2005 they brought 50 thousand people to Leninsky Avenue to the “Our Victory” campaign - confirmed the ambitiousness of the project. On November 4 of the same year, “ours” spent their first “Russian march”, saying that over 100 thousand people took to the streets throughout the country. Today, “ours” have about 1.5 thousand commissars and activists and are ready to quickly collect more than 100 thousand people per share. According to the most modest estimates, the annual budget exceeds 1 billion rubles: this amount consists of almost 500 million rubles of official financing of various projects and units of movement, grants hidden in budgetary Ministry of Sports and the Ministry of Sports, and regular large contributions of “socially responsible businessmen” (in the terminology of “ours”) to separate projects and shares.
Vasya "ZHZHOT"!
According to Commissioner Oleg, the entire organization of “ours” is kept exclusively on the charisma and energy of Yakemenko: “When I decided to join the“ ours ”, there was no ideological motivation. Yes, no one had it - neither the "Yablons" nor the "defense", everything is for the loot! Of the general row, except for the National Bolsheviks were knocked out. Everyone went to rallies from self -interest: to whom they paid the money, whom they moved along the party line, but the drive was nowhere to be found. No matter what they say about Vasya, but he really “ZHZHOT”: he lived in a bronze soldier in a picket in the tent for three days, he was the first to rush for a cordon. Although he is with a joke, he is charismatic. " According to him, on a business trip, the head of Rosmolodezh is still flying an economy class. Often does not order any meetings at the airports, but takes a regular taxi. “Vasya is whipped, it costs anyone nothing to besiege,” adds the commissioner Julia. - When he came to us * * * The Mashuk Youth Educational Camp - a Seliger analogue for the youth of the Caucasian republics, Abkhazia and South Ossetia., All were waiting, preparing. The security was driven: next to us was the riot police camp, two Feesbashniks arrived with each regional delegation, Kadyrov allocated a personal special forces platoon to protect the Chechen group. The "big bump" came from the apparatus of the envoy, the priests are different. And he looked around and said: "The garbage is complete, nothing is ready, I won’t go to any discovery." And he went to sleep. We conducted the opening, and he saturated and said: "Well, then, so be it - I’ll go." So for him the camp was opened a second time! Again people were driven away. The uncle from the embassy was not in the scrap for the second time the same thing from the rostrum repeated. No one said a word across. ”
According to Julia, Yakemenko can walk and harshly humiliate a person. “Once, at 14.00, cool social activists along the Ministry of Emergencies for the presentation of the medal signed up for him at 14.00. And Vasya has a habit without a schedule to accept the most entrusted commissars. The people with the award missed the walkers, and when they themselves broke through, Vasya asks: “How much was you appointed? Goodbye!" The case is scandalous, people are not the last, the assistants explained to which Vasya replied: “Well, you have one minute. Reward. " "

Monitoring the activities of “ours”, tracking the execution of the tasks and monitoring the proper use of funds is carried out by “bushes” - unspoken assistants of the FSB

" Flock
According to Alexei Chadaev, one of the developers of the ideology of the movement “Our”, the head of the political department of the Executive Committee of United Russia and the author of the book “Putin. Its ideology ”, the main recruiting resource of movement is the poor province. “According to my many years of observations,” said the ideologist in an interview with The New Times, “the main contingent are children of respected, but poor parents. Parents with reputation and status, for example, in a small provincial city or village, - teachers, officials, doctors, workers. Their parents are people who in Soviet times had high social status. But in new times, when we have prosperity, they lost a lot in this status. Children of entrepreneurs or large bosses do not go to “ours”. ”
Vladislav Surkov appeals to career elevators. This is how he describes his meeting with students of St. Petersburg Pedagogical University. Herzena is one of the commissars: “Surkov bribed all his directness: we say, give you a unique chance: one of you will become a minister, someone-a State Duma deputy, will help someone in business. Just do not think that this applies to everyone. Most will remain with nothing. Nobody is going to regret you either - who will give a reason, we will dilute to the fullest. ” Vladislav Yuryevich and principles of movement did not hide. “Your main task will be to charm, enveloped and create an illusion” - it is these words of the main Kremlin “illusionist” that the future commissar was most remembered. The concept of “breeding” and “create illusions” long before Surkov in the book with the speaking name “Ears to the donkey” in 2002 co -authorship with other famous political technologists was outlined by one of the political consultants of the Nashi movement, the Advisor to the Department of the Presidential Administration of the Russian Federation for domestic politics Oleg Matveychev. The course of Matveyicheva “Practical Rhetoric” today is mandatory for activists of movement, because it was this knowledge that allowed Matveyichev to openly declare an innovative forum in Novosibirsk *** The International Youth Innovation Forum in Siberia “Interra” was held in Novosibirsk from September 9 to 15, 2009: “We can do everything with the Russian population with the Russian population.”
Curators in uniform
In the structure of “ours” there is also an invisible part of the iceberg. As the New Times explained on the basis of anonymity, the senior officer of the Central apparatus of the FSB, the activities of “ours” are tightly controlled by the operational composition of the territorial departments of the FSB: “Monitoring the activities of“ ours ”, tracking the execution of the tasks set by Moscow is carried out by the“ bushes ”properly using unaccounted cash. There are only 16 people, all of them are unspoken assistants to the FSB and report to their operational managers about what instructions they received in Moscow, what, when and what budgets they plan to do in the regions. ” Describing his unspoken assistant, the source of The New Times in the FSB noticed that during his work “Kustovik” his ward from an ordinary regional entrepreneur turned into a very wealthy person, acquired a new, more promising business, several apartments, one of them in Moscow, moves through the territory of his “bush” in the Toyota Landruzer personal car.
When the "nurses" fled, they were replaced
In the stories of commissars and activists of the movement “Our”, FSB officers and representatives of counteracting extremism from the system of the Ministry of Internal Affairs appear constantly. The Commissioner of the Movement “Our” from the North-Western Federal District told The New Times, how he met the special services: “When I headed“ ours ”, the curators from the FSB were immediately fixed for me. He said that we should not contact football fans and NBP. Once acquaintances of the National Bolsheviks called to a closed meeting with Limonov. So at the door I was intercepted by the Feesbashnik on duty and hissed that I couldn’t go here. The Limonovites, noticing this, replied that I was my own, and that from the "ours", it does not bother them. And when they were working in the Committee on Youth Affairs, I was constantly in contact with the ORB *** ORB officers-the operational-search bureau of the Ministry of Internal Affairs (now the Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for counteracting extremism) .. They had fun in their offices-the fascist banners with the swastika stood, it is clear that they were deployed as if in the Reichscanzelia You come in. So, the oarbashniki in my presence with the leaders of the fans agreed: they can fight, not a question. If the police take, they will be covered. But with the NBP “our” were forbidden to communicate categorically. The Spartak "beds" are enjoyed with great authority. They say that even Vasya was not afraid to take Gop-Stop. And he to them: "I will not give you the money, but I will take it to work." Maybe legend, but beautiful. They say that after this incident they were given the project “Local”. With Governor Gromov, they agreed to help. Look at them - handsome. We don’t even dream of such a discipline. ”
The price of the issue
The financing of the movement “ours” is arranged on a design principle: money is allocated for specific programs, shares. Money comes from several sources: from the Ministry of Sports, in the subordination of which there is a Rosmolodezh, Minobra and from a number of other ministries and departments that conduct open tenders to receive grants for the development of various programs. The winners, as a rule, turn out to be affiliated with “our” structures. These funds are estimated at almost half a billion rubles annually. Another important source of financing is the funds allocated to the movement by representatives of large business. As one of the curators of “ours” in the FSB said, “attracting young career oriented businessmen as financial roofs of the“ ours ”movement is a widespread practice. Motivate them usually promising state and municipal orders. In the Southern Federal District, in particular, they promise contracts for the construction and maintenance of Olympic facilities. Often cheating. That is why the local business began to get away from cooperation with “ours” and the movement was really blown away. ”

The expenses of the regional departments of the movement vary: they can be from $ 20 thousand to $ 30 thousand per month. The annual maintenance and provision of regional branches costs the round amount: from 122 million to 184 million rubles. At the same time, additional funds are required to conduct unofficial measures, and the cost of mass shares increases in proportion to the number of participants. According to the interlocutor of The New Times from the FSB, who oversee the so -called “bush operator” (a confidential person of special services, who oversees 3-4 territories of the Russian Federation), for one trip the “bushed” heaped to the monthly needs of four regions brought up to 30 million rubles from Moscow. However, by the March elections, Vasily Yakemenko can safely count on an increase in financing and new multimillion -dollar tranches - too much on stake.
