Emerged patriots

Antimaydan was a march in Moscow: reporting Ilya Azar

In Moscow on February 21, the patriotic march “Antimaydan” took place. According to police, 35 thousand people took part in it. On Petrovka Street to the Square of the Revolution, where the rally was held, a variety of organizations passed the system - from the "officers of Russia" to the party "Civil Platform" of businessman Mikhail Prokhorov. At the rally, the presenters - the leader of Antimaydan Nikolai Starikov and singer Vika Tsyganov - called the Ukrainian Maidan "Goebbels embryo, transplanted into a anthropoid being dancing in the temple." The Patriotic march was watched by the special correspondent of Medusa Ilya Azar .

March

“If we do not go in support of Vladimir Putin, we ourselves will die and we will rot in the ditches, like people who did not understand that the Nazis were going on. We were declared war, ”a man wrapped in the march wrapped in the flag of“ St. George ribbon ”explained his participation in the march.

The main slogan of the patriotic march, which took place on the anniversary of the Victory in Ukraine of the Euromaidan, was the slogan "We will not forget, we will not forgive." That it is precisely Russian citizens that they will not be able to forgive the Ukrainian brothers, the march participants were explained in special videos that were twisted on large screens along Petrovka.

Citizens were briefly retold the history of revolutions in Syria, Libya, Egypt and Ukraine allegedly organized by the West, and demonstrated the economic indicators of these countries before and after the coup. For example, it was reported that the course of the Ukrainian hryvnia after the victory of the Euromaidan fell three times (nothing was tactfully said about the weakening of the ruble).

However, most of the participants in the march were already aware of who is to blame for everything. “The whole story of America needed a war,” one of the protesters explained weightily to her friend.

“The Maidan did not bring anything good to Ukraine,” the singer Grigory Leps repeated the march from the screen from the screen. “I am against the Maidan in all its manifestations.” I am for the great free Russia. ”

The participants of the march were distributed template posters with repeated inscriptions: “Today is the Maidan, tomorrow war?”, “There is no fascism! There is no Maidan! ”,“ My child needs a bright future, not the Maidan and the war ”,“ He will not ask a bear, but he will not give his taiga to anyone, “Russia is such a country that is not afraid of anything” and so on.

Some columns had their own - thematic - slogans. The “Battle for the Donbass” marching in the column (its name strangely contrasted with the chanting “Donbass - Peace!”) Carrying sheets of A3 format with the text “We are Donbass”. Representatives of the Chechen column went in jackets with a portrait of the former President of Chechnya Akhmat Kadyrov and in shirts depicting his son and successor Ramzan Kadyrov, as well as Vladimir Putin.

“Ramzan! Putin! " “The Chechens in turn chanted the names of their idols, carrying in their hands posters with the text“ Putin and Kadyrov will not allow the Maidan ”.

Following them were delegations from Ingushetia and Dagestan. They were happy to share flags with others. Two grandmothers, who turned out to be the flags of the Republic of Ingushetia, were offended to my question, from where they got them: “We are from Vladivostok, so what? This is all one Soviet Union! "

Most of the march participants, who filled the whole of Petrovka by one in the afternoon, walked with the "St. George ribbons." There were not so many random people who independently come to express their patriotic position. In the morning, people from the regions were brought to buses by bus; Students also did not hide that they had come by order .

“The procession will not be long, but we don’t need to go to the end,” the girl reassured her friend.

“But you need to choose the right moment [to leave], so let's go a little,” the other answered.

Those who signed up on the march on the site "Massovka.ru" paid 300 rubles each, but the students driven by the march were happy and the Russian flag.

- I am satisfied with my life. I will not come home with empty hands: otherwise the mother will ask where I was, ”the guy said joyfully, shaking the flag of Russia.

- Let's go to McDak after? - asked his friend.

“No, you have to be a patriot,” the first snapped.

On the eve of the march, the leaders of Antimaydan promised that more than a hundred organizations would take part in it. In addition to the usual participants in the pro -government actions like “Russian officers”, “combat brotherhood” or the LDPR on the “Anti -Maidan” were unexpected. For example, members and supporters of the Civil Platform party passed their small column. Its sponsor and founder is Mikhail Prokhorov - for him many liberals voted in the 2012 president. The activists who were walking in branded scarves (and without “St. George ribbons”) explained to me that they did not see anything strange in the participation of a liberal party in a patriotic and anti -optical rally.

“Under Rifata (Shahudtinov changed Irina Prokhorova as the party leader after the attachment to Russia of Crimea - approx. Medusa), the course changed, and the party supports Russia's foreign policy, advocating changes in the economy. I support such a course, but I definitely won’t go to the march [opposition] on March 1, ”one of the activists explained to me.

A well -dressed young man who walked next to her, however, felt uncomfortable. “I myself am surprised what I'm doing here,” he said, shrugging his shoulders.

Andrei Bogdanov, the main leader of the Democratic Party (DPR), appeared on the march and the main massason of Russia and the main massason of Russia. The political strategist is involved in the creation of a huge number of parties, and now he made a bet on the Communist Party of Social Justice (CPSU), hoping to take away the nearest parliamentary and regional votes from the Communist Party.

- And remember how a few years ago you held a DPR congress in Brussels with the flags of the European Union and the slogan “Russia is Europe”? - I asked Bogdanov, who headed his column with the "St. George ribbon" on his chest and a red flag with the inscription "CPSU" in his hands.

- Certainly! So nothing has changed, ”Bogdanov was not embarrassed. - We are for united Europe, where Russia will play the first violin. I was in Italy and France, and there the Communists want Europe that Europe be from Vladivostok to La Channel.

Rally

The scene was allowed to install the Anti -Maidan organizers on the Manezhnaya Square between the Moscow Hotel and the Historical Museum (the opposition of the Moscow City Hall sent marching on March 1 to sleeping Marino). The rally of the writer-conspirologist and one of the leaders of Anti-Maidan Nikolai Starikov and singer Vika Tsyganova were conducted. They began with emotional and creative anti -Maidan roll call.

“In Kyiv, a funeral team came to power, the Maidan is a death festival,” said Starikov.

- The main weapon of the Maidan is a lie, the results of which are thousands of dead, hundreds of thousands of wounded, millions of destitute old people and children! - continued Tsyganova.

- The Maidan - this is the embryo Goebbels, transplanted into a human being, dancing in temples - did not give up the elderly.

- Maidan - the concentration of all anti -Russian under the flags of the Nazis and Makarevich songs - did not slow down Tsyganov.

- There will be no Maidan in Russia! - The presenters together were chanted, but in the crowd almost no one picked up the slogan.

- Be cursed Maidan! - almost crying finished Tsyganova.

Following the relatives of those who died in Odessa on May 2, supporters of the local Anti -Maidan movement. “The death of my son tore my heart, and it is impossible to forget it,” said the mother of the young man who burned out in the house of trade unions.

Could not ignore the march of supporters of the authorities and leaders of the Russian opposition. In the crowd with posters with the mention of the “thief of Navalny”, representatives of the “Young Guard of United Russia” were going on; On the stage about the opposition, the representative of Uralvagonzavod, Alexei Balyberdin, recalled.

“In 2012, it seemed that the opposition was ended, but now it was revived again! The traitors are negligible, but we must remember that they are arrogant and cynical people without brakes, and they will not stop at anything to destroy the country. Three years ago, we wanted to come to the opposition rally on the tank, but now, I think, there is enough strong word. And we are ready to tell him, ”Balyberdin said.

Before the participants of the march, singer Chicherin spoke, whom Starikov called the "star of Russian rock." She recalled that for a performance in Lugansk, the Ukrainian government pursues her as a terrorist. “And those who massively kill their people and turn the cities into ruins, they call heroes. We must save our country from this, ”Chicherina said and performed the song“ My Rock and Roll ”.

The rally ended with the performance of the chief biker of the country Alexander the “surgeon” of Zaldostanov. “I urge you to rally around the President of Russia, as we did it at a turning point - in Sevastopol and Crimea. Looking into your eyes and seeing how many of you, I understand: there will be no Maidan in Russia. Let this orange ferret break off its crooked, but poisonous teeth! ” - shouted the surgeon.

On this, the rally ended, people began to disperse, and brought an orange stuffed animal with the US flag and dollars on the metro station Square metro station.

Near the narrow company of his supporters, the results of the rally were summed up by the State Duma deputy and the leader of the national liberation movement (NOD) Evgeny Fedorov.

- We have done a very important thing! We launched the process of liberation of Russia and cleaning the “fifth column” in power. The spring will now twist, and this will end either with a coupling or a sovereignty, ”said Fedorov (who believes that Russia is still enslaved by the United States, and Vladimir Putin is the leader of the national liberation movement, which has not yet achieved the liberation of the country from the yoke).

“I'm from Vladivostok myself,” the supporter turned to Fedorov. - Tell me, what should we do in Primorye?

- So far nothing. At the right time, the highest administrative resource will enter into business, and you will simply be given planes to fly to Moscow, ”Fedorov reassured him.

- Homeland! Freedom! Putin! - People began to chant Fedorov people.

- Six months later, we will be a million, and we will win this year. Thank you for pushing this cart - Russia - forward! - said Fedorov and went away.

Fedorov’s performance was carefully listened to by a man with a portrait of singer Andrei Makarevich, on which the “organizer of the Maidan” was written (on other posters, Mikhail Khodorkovsky, Boris Nemtsov, Mikhail Kasyanov and other oppositionists were recommended in the same way).

“Why do you show everyone Makarevich, you need to forget and erase him,” the peasant approached the guy.

- He is the main organizer of the Maidan! - answered the guy.

“Yes, it is not known at all whether he was on the Maidan or not,” the man reasonably remarked.

- Are you for Makarevich, or what? - the guy jumped up.

-No, no, but he is just a pawn.

“Well, it is clear that the main organizer is Americans, but still,” the guy calmed down.

At that moment, a grandmother in a purple scarf approached a guy with a portrait of Makarevich in his hands. She leaned toward the portrait and said quietly: "You are a bastard, Judas." And turned away.
