On Monday , August 31 , the next action will be held in Moscow , dedicated to 31 number, once they were held as part of the I- 31 strategists . The leader of the unregistered party “Another Russia”, Eduard Limonov, who once former one of the persons of this strategy , announced his Livejournal about his Monday event . According to the writer , the action of “Strategy -31 ” will be held again at the Krasnopresnenskaya metro , near the monument to the heroes of 1905 , since the Triumphal Square is still under reconstruction .
“Between ourselves , we , the organizers , are now increasingly calling the rallies of strategy -31, “ folk assemblies ” . Since we are talking about them about the hot problems of the city , our country and peace , with the full participation of the people , those who came to specifically ask a question , those who walked past , heading in the subway , ” the politician wrote on his blog .
“We have no crackling slogans and empty calls at our rallies , but there is an interested conversation about problems and conflicts , ” Limonov said . It is not reported whether this rally was agreed by the Moscow authorities .
Recall that “Strategy -31 ” was in support of the freedom of assembly in Russia , which is guaranteed by Article 31 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation in continuation of marches of disagreements . Among its initiators in 2009 , then there was still a radical opposition Eduard Limonov. Since then , such promotions have been held from time to time in Moscow on 31 days (in 2009 - 2010 regularly) , six months later they were picked up in St. Petersburg and many other cities , which made the “Strategy -31 ” phenomenon of an all -Russian scale .
In addition , the idea of “strategy -31 ” was also supported by similar shares abroad : solidarity was expressed in Kiev , Prague , Tel - Aviv , Berlin , Brussels , Helsinki , Tallinn and even in Beijing . The whole first year of the existence of “Strategy -31 ” of its shares on the Triumphal Square have never been agreed with the Moscow authorities -there was always another coordinated event . Therefore, every time in 2009 - 2010, the strategy shares accelerated and ended with mass detention of their participants .
With the 6 years, the situation changed : in May and in July 2014, the capital authorities agreed on the “Strategies -31 ” campaign on the Triumphal Square , and in July 2015 the action of “another Russia” was agreed on Krasnaya Presna due to repair work on the triumphal square . This place for the action was chosen from three options proposed by the mayor's office , and Limonov appreciated it as a “good temporary replacement” .
However, the Strategy-31 itself has radically changed-first due to the split in the ranks of the organizers, then- from 2014- due to the convergence of the positions of “other Russia” with the positions of the authorities.
The St. Petersburg members of the other Russia, however , did not wait for the approval of the authorities . Since the beginning of 2010 , they held shares every 31st of the Gostiny Dvor , but as in the capital , the authorities of St. Petersburg did not coordinate the events . On January 31 of this year, other Russia supporters held the last St. Petersburg action : a group of activists entered the site near the Gostiny Dvor , they deployed the glory of Novorossiya and lit the files , after which they were detained by the police .
The leader of the St. Petersburg branch of another Russia Andrei Dmitriev told ZakS . Ru , that in the second half of last year, the authorities of St. Petersburg were also offered other sites for holding the Strategy -31 campaign , and this did not lead to anything . “We received a refusal everywhere and decided to finish with the action , since other problems appeared . Donbass arose , a militia arose . The task of assembling humanitarian aid is worth . We closed this story for ourselves and do not plan to continue . So far , at least . I do not exclude that in the future we will return to the living room , but not in the near future , ” Dmitriev said . According to him , in Moscow the situation is developing differently , since the Moscow authorities turned out to be more flexible , since they agreed on the rally even on the triumphal square .
At the rallies of the Gnyatsov, various problems that bother society are discussed , Limonov said on the RSN radio on the eve of a rally on Krasnaya Presnya : “In recent months, the rallies of“ Strategy -31 ”have turned into live communication with people who came and ask their questions . Basically , questions do not even concern domestic policy . Donbass was interested in everyone , now a little less . Now people are interested in the problem of positioning liberals , the problem of our musicians and so on . ” The July rally of “Strategy” was held under the slogans “We have little Crimea” and “We require the abolition of the results of privatization” .
In the mid -90- x Eduard, Limonov chaired the National - the Bolshevik Party , which is currently officially prohibited in Russia . The NBR was a radical - opposition association , which did not have a constant ideology . Among her initiatives , for example , there were referendums on the accession of neighboring Sudartes to Russia with a predominance of the Russian population , as well as the requirement to prohibit Russian women with abortion and exile from the territory of Russia of foreign companies .
Natives from the NBP Created in 2010 the Party of another Russia (after the name of a wide opposition coalition, which included Limonov's supporters). The party was never registered . “Another Russia”, it was claimed, was conceived as a massive people's protest party - in the mid -2000s, Limonov’s line seemed to have shifted from Stalinism and radical nationalism to general opposition rhetoric . But then the radicalism of the methods returned to ideology.
Recently, Edur Limonov has been known mainly as the columnist of the Izvestia newspaper , actively attacking the opposition, but from time to time criticizing and power - for insufficient sequence and radicalism.
