Igor Yakovenko: "About the dead and the living"

"On 02.24.17, Churkin was buried at the Troekurovsky cemetery. Anthuman, weapons of salute. Everything is as it should be. There were his head Lavrov, Minister of Health Skvortsov, a former vice speaker of Chilingarov, Senator Mezentsev and for some reason Zyuganov. There was no Putin, but he ordered a reward to Churkin to the Order of Courage," The journalist writes on his blog .

"When Nemtsov was buried two years ago, there was no salute. The official status of Nemtsov-ex-deputy prime minister, is much higher than the official status of Churkin, but official Russia decided to neglect official statuses and expressed its personal attitude to both dead people. Even official Russia found that Churkin is worthy of the Order of Courage, and Nemtsov is not enough for the order."

"I am sure that on 20.02.2019, no one will remember that Churkin had died two years ago except his family and close friends. Today, thousands, dozens and hundreds of thousands go on the march of Nemtsov’s memory. And not only in Moscow. Just because the souls of these hundreds after the murder of Nemtsov formed a hole. A large hole was made a huge hole in Russia. Many times more than the large body of the murdered.

What is the reason that hundreds of thousands feel the irreplaceability of loss? Nemtsov was not the most popular Russian oppositionist. He had a huge anti -rating. “Thank you” to the calfs who poured him with mud for 15 years, demonized the “damned 90s” and attributed to him all conceivable and unthinkable sins. Boris himself knew this well and perceived with the courage of Stoic.

For Putin, the murder of Nemtsov was a successful special operation. Having killed Nemtsov, Putin was largely able to paralyze the Russian protest. Because Boris was absolutely indispensable as a communicator. His openness, charm, indestructible goodwill, constant smile, instant transition to “you,” all this made Boris Nemtsov the soul of protest. The first number, leader, theorist, organizer could be someone else, but only Boris was always the soul.

Boris Efimovich Nemtsov and Vitaly Ivanovich Churkin are political in political terms - the children of Gorbachev’s perestroika and Yeltsin reforms. Nemtsov in 1990 became a deputy of the Supreme Council of the RSFSR, and in 1991 - the first governor of the Nizhny Novgorod region. In Gorbachev’s times, Churkin was a press secretary of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the USSR Shevarnadze, and in Yeltsinsky he was first the head of the information department of the Russian Foreign Ministry, and then the deputy Kozyrev. Both Shevarnadze and Kozyrev today are among the most cursed national experts who ruined the USSR and almost ruined Russia. Vitaly Churkin was a hand of both, like Maria Zakharova today Rupor Lavrova.

The difference between Nemtsov and Churkin is that Nemtsov remained faithful to what he did and spoke under Yeltsin and therefore ended up under Putin in the opposition, and Churkin instantly pulled out of his head all the contents that allowed him to make perestroika and reformist speeches. After that, he rapidly stuffed the frankly fascist and imperial rhetoric in the vacant place, which was amazed at the whole world all the years of his special conference in the UN Security Council.

In the hands of Vitaly Ivanovich Churkin there is more blood than on the hands of most dictators. There was a veto, which Churkin imposed a weaving of a diplomat, whenever the UN Security Council tried to pacify any executioner or prevent another bloodshed. ”

“The constant lies of Churkin about Russian aggression in Ukraine, all these“ ichtomnets ”and“ Avydok ”heard the whole world, it, it has become the hallmark of the diplomat-tan of Churkin. They may object, they say, not Churkin invented another veto, he is only a performer. It is true that evil does not penetrate into this world, and every conductor brings his share of responsibility. Putin - his own, Lavrov and Churkin - his own. "

"Just Churkin is a symbol of Putin’s official Russia, false and bloodthirsty. And Nemtsov is a symbol of that Russia that the whole world would like to find - smart, talented, friendly and inexhaustible for friendship and love. Therefore, Churkin died completely, and Nemtsov is alive in our memory."
