Economist and politician from St. Petersburg Andrei Pesotsky recalls that torture against politically unreliable citizens did not begin to be used “yesterday.” And he gives living examples from the experience of the St. Petersburg opposition: “The security forces have tortured and will continue to torture . This is cruel Russia, after all.”

However, “even if the authorities want to tighten the screws to the extreme position, this is no longer realistic,” consoles teacher from Tambov Anton Steiner, crediting this good news to the West, and not at all to the federal government or the opposition.

The radical (nationalist) part of this opposition is encouraged by the white-ribbon activist Alexei Blindul, who believes that the location of the “Russian March” on November 4 will be of fundamental importance: “If now Russian nationalists obediently march to Lyublino, it will look simply pitiful.”

The Novgorod region is expecting a new redistribution of property, and real power in the region, which is again headed by Sergei Mitin, will pass into the hands of representatives of the “St. Petersburg branch of Oleg Deripaska’s group ,” warns blogger Evgeny Chuprunov.

No redistribution of property is expected in Yaroslavl, but the main Russian problem is manifesting itself here too. “All over the world, people are focused on shopping, shaping and banking, and the capital of Russian democracy is on trading ,” says journalist Evgenia Kuznetsova, explaining why Yaroslavl will never have its own brand.

The Russian Authors' Society, which has taken upon itself the protection of the copyrights of academic composers, also seems to be hurt by Tyring. “It hasn’t paid them anything for two years now,” reports Moscow-based editor Evgeniy Boyko. And now he will have to think about his own safety. At least, according to the testimony of Alexander Vasiliev, “RTR journalists who inquired about the fate of the money under the People’s Garage program received a sound knock on the head .”
