One of the organizers of the protest rallies for honest elections, the leader of the Left Front, Sergei Udaltsov, became the confidant of the presidential candidate Gennady Zyuganov. On Thursday, he performed at a rally , which the Communist Party spent on the theater Square of Moscow.
"Gennady Zyuganov in all surveys retains the chances of entering the second round of the presidential election, and in the coming days I will work for this result," said Udaltsov ITAR -TASS. He recalled that back in January 2012, the Left Front signed an agreement with Zyuganov on joint actions in the presidential election.
“Zyuganov almost completely supports the requirements of rallies on Bolotnaya Square and on Sakharov Avenue,” the coordinator of the Left Front added. “The only disagreement concerns the early presidential elections - Zyuganov seems to be ready to hold them in the case of his victory, but how much it was not clear before, and the rallies demanded clearly for two years,” he said. But this discrepancy, in his opinion, will not interfere with cooperation with the head of the Communist Party.
Udaltsov intends to continue cooperation with other members of the organizing committee of the protest actions "for fair elections". “The organizing committee is not a party, everyone has its own position there,” the oppositionist explained.
Speaking at a Rage of the Communist Party of the Communist Party on February 23, Sergey Udaltsov again told how President Dmitry Medvedev at a meeting with the leaders of unregistered parties on February 20 allegedly hinted that Boris Yeltsin won, but Gennady Zyuganov, with whom he competed in the second round.
"I was at a meeting with the President of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev. During the meeting, he directly told representatives of the opposition that in 1996, not Yeltsin won the election. And this means that Gennady Zyuganov was supposed to become the president. But he did not become him due to falsifications in the elections. It turns out that the power in our country is illegitimate. I propose to restore historical justice. If we have this. Vladimir Putin will not work out again by the president of Russia, the very next day after summing up the elections, I invite everyone to go to the Kremlin and not diverge until he leaves, ” the New Newspaper, quoted Udaltsov.
Around this "statement by Medvedev" a real dispute broke out. The fact that such words were heard in the part of the conversation closed to the media was confirmed by other opposition - the chairman of the Russian National Union Sergey Baburin, the co -chair of Parnasa Boris Nemtsov and the leader of the party of the case, Konstantin Babkin.
The Kremlin, however, said that the president did not say this. And on Thursday, Anatoly Chubais, who headed the Yeltsin’s election headquarters in 1996, said that the federal center was then not engaged in any manipulations, but statements about the victory of the Communist Party of the Communist Party of the Communist Party Gennady Zyuganov - Lzhiva. “If you seriously recognize the thesis that Zyuganov, not Yeltsin won in 1996, will automatically have to recognize both deadlines by Putin V.V. and the current presidency of Medvedev D.A.,” he wrote in his LJ .
