The unofficial tournament in honor of the 1100th anniversary of Pskov took place. There is a calculation of medals

The Pskov anniversary, the need for which everyone spoke for so long, took place. The people received everything he could, and now indulges in memories. Another thing is politics - they, as befits fighters, consider wounds and awards.

It has been repeatedly written that initially a conflict spring was clamped between the city and regional authorities: two organizing committees (governor and mayor), two budgets, two monuments to Princess Olga, finally.

Sowing was difficult, the harvest too. Let's look at bread, fellow citizens.

The part is official. Congratulations. This is interesting, as it turns out. It is important who is addressed, as it is inscribed, is it great ...

Statistics are as follows. Of the 75 congratulations counted by us (from the press published in the press), the mayor of Pskov, Mikhail Zhoronenu, is addressed to the head of the region’s administration Evgeny Mikhailov, 4 to the chairman of the Pskov City Duma Leonid Trifonov (together with the mayor, naturally), the rest of the addresses “all residents of the Pskov region and the city of Pskov”, easier, Pskovichi. Apart from us citizens, the round is clearly behind the mayor.

The part is official. Visits. Perhaps this is a great happiness for the common people that there were few senior guests, and they “slipped through” Pskov on the weekend, otherwise they would block all the entrances to it besides the city center. On the other hand, the authorities will never arrange to show their giving only to citizens, in the absence of high authorities. Who will appreciate?

From this point of view, no one earned the dividends: there was no president, there was no prime minister, Valentina Ivanovna no longer arrives, her deputy was pulled out of vacation and literally begged to call in Pskov, State Duma deputies flew so much to the holiday as to “shut up” against his background and get into TV frames. Boris Gryzlov promised, but did not appear, despite the call of Matveev (Sergey). The rest are the chairman of the Pension Fund (either a hint, or a hint) Mikhail Zurabov, a “duty officer in Pskov”, without five minutes retired George Shpak and two sculptors - Zurab Tsereteli and Vyacheslav Klykov.

No matter what side, there’s nothing to boast of. Nobody won in this round. Zero draw.

The part is official. Awards. Everything is clear here. On July 21, the president signed a decree on the anniversary award of the Big Pskov “group of comrades”, which was headed by the mayor Mikhail Zhoronen with the Order of Honor. The governor or his deputy was not in the decree at all. A series of the most incredible rumors went instantly, up to the point that the president himself deleted the name of the governor, along with the Order donated to the chief of the chief. In this development of events, we will doubt, however, the outcome of the round is unequivocal: the victory of the mayor.

Part is special. Cultural. The struggle for a place near the Pskov Sun of the two Olg - Klykovskaya and Tseretelskaya (in other words, mayor and governor) - became the real intrigue of the entire anniversary season. Who is higher? Who is faster? Who is more magnificent and pompous? We want to enjoy the details of the details of Svetlana Prokopyeva at 4-5 pages. Here we will confine ourselves to the remark that Olga Tsereteli was first officially opened, but at the same time Olga Klykova immediately got into place without a bedspread, and those who wanted to “compare two colors” could do this at once. We will not undertake to judge art, both monuments found their place in Pskov. The result of the round: combat draw, 1: 1.

Part is unofficial. Love and gratitude of the people. If, as in the days of the Pskov ery, to judge the feelings of folk people in public, then voiced as in good Komsomol times, the performances of Mikhail Yakovlevich were met by the Pskov public much more lively, than even, without intonation, the word expression of Yevgeny Eduardovich. Everything seems to be inclined in favor of the mayor, for the first time after the elections of the three regrets found in the very center of popular attention, but something is restrained from announcing the advantage of one side.

What is folk love? Treason to the previous idol. What are her fruits? The bitterness of future defeats. We will not talk about sad. The people did not drive anyone away, listened to everyone, patted everyone, but what does he really think?

Do not ask the people about it. Let it celebrate better.

Alexey Alesin.
