On April 8, the Moscow metro will turn white

NEWS OF THE DAY. On April 8, the opposition is planning a flash mob action “White Metro”

Despite the fact that the action page appeared on Facebook on April 1, everything is quite serious, including the declared participants of 477 people and about 200 more possible.

The organizers explain on the social network that the action should cover the capital's metro station "Ploshchad Revolyutsii", as well as the neighboring "Okhotny Ryad" and "Teatralnaya".

The opposition intends to decorate metro stations with “white ribbons, flowers, stickers, balloons, posters and girls dressed in white.” “Come on Sunday, April 8, at any time convenient for you, to the Ploshchad Revolyutsii metro station and help turn it into an exemplary station! Don’t be shy about the police, they can also be decorated with flowers and ribbons,” they call on social networks.

We would like to remind you that a similar action “White Square”, whose activists wanted to decorate Red Square, ended with the detention of 55 people.
