The Glavparade on November 4 in the Moscow district of Lublin was a “Russian March”, which reached about three thousand people. The “links” built them in columns, asked to “move away from each other at the distance of an outstretched hand”, but in no case do not throw their right hand in the fascist greeting and not to shout out the provocative rivers: “In case of poor behavior of the next event, it may not be,” the organizers reported to the megaphones. The Russian march “disobeyed” - he went to the Bratislavskaya metro station, chanting (though rather sluggish) “Moscow - not the Caucasus, Allah - PID*RAS!” And “Come on, come on, u*come from here, Russia-for Russians, Moscow-for Muscovites!” A much more serious action took place at the same time in the very center of Moscow on Bolotnaya Square (as one of its organizers said from the stage: “At a distance of a direct cannon shot from the Kremlin”). OMON did not cordon it, Nazi slogans did not sound on it, not a single swastika was noticed in the crowd, as well as crowds of journalists who wanted to remove all this: the participants of the event observed the exemplary discipline. Nevertheless, it was this not particularly advertised action, which was supported by the most odious in Russia by the “ultra -right” of the Kolovrat group, which allows you to say with confidence: fascism in Russia has become absolutely legal - most likely, with the direct “blessing” of the Presidential Administration. 

Closer to the alley, the stream of those leaving the metro try to organize in flat columns activists of the DPNI, the “Slavic Union”, the Russian Public Movement and other right -wing organizations. The "link" one of the columns to which The New Times was attached is a young man in a black leather coat - shouts to the megaphone: “Gentlemen Nationalists! If you want the Russian order, then you need to match! A line of 12 people, no more! Do not be a scattered crowd, there is no free walking! We must look beautiful - the whole world looks at us today! " There are really a lot of video and cameras- the feeling that a pop-level pop star arrived in Lublino. The march participants willingly pose for reporters. A brisk trade is launched on the left side of the alley. The product does not differ in diversity-it is literature that reveals the intrigues of the world Masonic conspiracy (the book “Talmud and Jews” cost 400 rubles on the day of “folk consent”) and black-yellow-white flags. "Big" imperine " - 500! Small - 300! ”, The woman calls about fifty. There are almost no buyers. In general, among the gathered surprisingly there are a lot of dissatisfied with what is happening. “Mockery,” the young man in a hoodie tells us with the inscription “I am Russian!” From the column genus. “They drove the Russians it is not clear where. What is this march - from flower beds to flower beds? It was necessary to go through the city center! " The march starts only after an hour and a half, by this moment the most active “right” freezes completely. Even calls to chanting the slogan "Glory of Russia!" They do not really warm them from the leader of the DPNI Belov: it is impossible to scream in order to any of the columns. Later, the reason for such apathy will be clarified. It turns out that the “basis” of the Nazi movement gathered on this day in a completely different place ...

Back to the future, it is more difficult to get to this action than on the “Lublin”: each who came to pass through metal detectors (which, by the way, there was no “Russian march” at all), each check pockets for a stake-cutting one, and select everything that, according to the police, can be crippled nearby, even half-empty plastic bottles. Behind the police, strong young people with the Baighiks “Organizer” are in orderly rows and warn all those who are about the inadmissibility of the chanting of fascist slogans. They do this much more convincing than the "Lublin" activists - for the whole event, the New Times correspondents did not notice a single excess. At the same time, the people gathered almost the same as on the “Russian march”, but the composition, expressed by the language of nationalists, “better”: young people from 25 and older, in the clothes of Fred Perry, Burberry and Stone Island, without any signs that betray their belonging to the right to move, almost half filled with swamp square. Among the “guests” The New Times noticed representatives of the neo-fascist group of N-Trups, whose members have several murders on national grounds and a loud murder of a policeman at the Fili metro station in 2003 (Vyacheslav Kapaev was beaten and died in the hospital), the “basis” “Spartak”, several activists of the RNE - in general, specific fighters, people of action, not words gathered in Bolotnaya.
From the stage, one of the "associates" calls on the crowd to raise money for "prisoners of conscience languishing in prison dungeons."
Turning towards the Kremlin, he asks: “Why are the Chechen terrorists of the Muradov and Elmurzaev, who in 2004 blew up the building of the election commission in Grozny (then 9 people were killed, including four soldiers.-The New Times) received 10 years, and a simple Russian guy Andrei, in whose work, was proved with sin in half the only episode. attacks, - 19 years old?! " By the way, the “simple Russian guy” is the leader of the gang of the Skinhedov “Slavic Unity”, celebrating his birthday together with “brothers by blood”, attacked two Dagestanians in the train near Moscow, killing one and crippling the other ...
In addition to helping “prisoners of conscience”, the event on Bolotnaya is devoted to the opening of a “global project” called “Yermolov”. According to its creators, the task of the project is “monitoring the activities of the diasporas in Russia, in order to open social ties, including corruption and criminal”. “We begin to form a database of diasporas in the constituent entities of the Federation,” the official statement of Ermolovtsev said. - Project directions: ethnic criminal groups, diasporas and other national associations, as well as youth extremist groups that support illegal immigrants, Antifa, AKM, the Left Front, etc. ”. Translating into a simple language, “monitoring” is ordinary surveillance.
The organizer of the entire rally-concert was the movement “Russian Image”. In contacting the associates, who called to come to Bolotnaya Square by two o’clock in the afternoon on November 4, it is said that “miserable marches of“ disagreements ”, paid masses of“ nurses ”, gathering old women under red flags - all this. Some have no people, others have no ideas, and the third is just in peace. So we know without a shadow of doubt: the future belongs to us! ” It was under such a slogan that the action was held in the center of Moscow. Almost none of its participants was going to go to the “Russian March” in Lublin. “There is nothing to do there,” the guy nicknamed the arrest, the guy nicknamed, told The New Times. - There are all bought leaders. And we don’t have leaders at all, we are all equal, and this is our power. ” The charter of the Russian Image organization really says: “Image” is a fundamentally new type of self -organization. We have no leaders, there are authorities. Everyone is responsible for what is competent in, and holds an answer to everyone for the effectiveness of their actions. ” And further: “Russian image” is not a gang, not a propaganda agency and not a political party. We are all together. “Russian image” is able to “solve issues” of any degree of complexity. We can create political projects from scratch, to provide protection for those who need it to conduct campaigns in the media, to defend the rights of citizens, commercial and public structures. We know all our friends and enemies by name, and everyone can count on an individual approach. At the same time, the list is always open ... "
The organization’s friends most likely are very high -ranking. Otherwise, the Russian image would hardly have been able to obtain permission in the Moscow City Hall for the performance of the cult of the Russian fascists of the Kolovrat group (by the way, the first open concert of the team in Moscow).

With the support of AP , “arranging a rally in Bolotnaya Square was invented in the presidential administration,” a source in AP told The New Times. - The idea was to delay part of the nationalists from the “Russian march” in Lublin. In addition, it is believed “upstairs” that it is better not to fight the real “Nazi”, but simply to control them. The “Russian image” is supervised by the deputy “Unicorn”, the leader of “Russia young” Maxim Mishchenko, he, in turn, is supervised by Vladislav Surkov. True, what is Kolovrat, to be honest, no one really knew, and now everything is in some confusion from what happened. ” The New Times phoned Mishchenko, who said that he was really familiar with the ideologists of the “Russian image”, and even went to Serbia with them, but refuted information about the patronage of the organization.
In any case, it is difficult to believe that “upstairs” did not hear anything about the group whose underground concerts (usually held on the outskirts of Moscow, and even “dedicated”), the authorities themselves periodically dispersed over the past 15 years could not always get to them. And back in 2004, the frontman of Kolovrat Denis Gerasimov, after a concert in the Czech Republic, was arrested on charges of “support and promotion of a movement that sets the goal of violating human rights and freedoms” and stayed in Prague prison for a year and a half. The story was so loud that it was even illuminated by several television channels. They could not know about it at all at all.

“Oblosets are uncomfortable” by the majority of The New Times from among the participants in the action on Bolotnaya themselves were amazed at the opportunity to see the “Kolovrat” alive in the center of Moscow. The preceding the speech of the group, a member of the Russian Verdict human rights organization, Alexander Vasiliev played them: “Honestly, until the last moment I did not believe that today, at the distance of a direct cannon shot from the Kremlin, several thousand right -wing youth would gather in order to listen to real right -wing music.” Then his colleagues read out a message from the former State Duma deputy Nikolai Kuryanovich, who handed over to the Kolovrat group the hearty greetings with the wish "and continue to delight us with his wonderful texts." An example of one of the “wonderful” texts: “The Slavs also fought in the SS detachments / for the purity of Aryan blood / now they are asleep behind the hell of heaven / but again they will stand up, just call.” Of course, in Bolotnaya, Kolovrat did not fulfill such things, limiting himself to a “soft” program in connection with the “importance of the moment”. Before singing, the leader of the Gerasimov group turned to the audience (“competent” Russian speech was preserved): “I would like to remind you regarding the norms of behavior, which the organizers of today's rally talked about today. Please try to demonstrate the most verified behavior today, which corresponds, let’s say, the current situation and the degree of monitoring that is carried out at our event today. ” It is necessary to give the "associates" the due: the verified behavior was indeed demonstrated by them. The next day, a brief report on the event appeared on the “Russian Image” website: “The concert was“ for its own ”, the music sounded“ for their own ”, the obvious Russians at such events are very uncomfortable.”
