On March 1, 2005, political scientist Viktor Militarev gave an interview to the Kremlin.org website, in which he expressed his approval of the initiative to create the Nashi youth movement .
This is the right idea, V. Militarev believes, because an "orange revolution" in Russia is quite possible and poses a clear threat (since it is unlikely to be bloodless). The Nashi movement was conceived to oppose, first of all, the liberal, left-wing internationalist coalition of liberal youth with the National Bolsheviks.
At the same time, according to the political scientist, it is precisely the liberal members of the hypothetical youth coalition, members of the Moscow youth Yabloko, etc., who pose the main danger, and "it would be possible to negotiate with a significant part of the NBP" . The National Bolsheviks, Militarev believes, "find fault with what I also dislike. But since most of them are exceptionally honest people, if someone could help them take care of a new target, it would be very good. "
On March 15, Komsomolskaya Pravda wrote that, according to the leaders of Nashi, the strength of the movement could reach up to 50,000 people, and work is underway among members of Nashi to create combat detachments capable of withstanding the "orange danger."
