First Deputy Head of the United Russia faction in the State Duma

I did not read this article. You never know what Navalny writes there, who is he? Prosecutor, [employee] of the RF IC? He is just a citizen. This is his personal file, understandable; A person who climbs into politics who did nothing for the country, nothing, zero at all! And I'm not going to comment on it. Let it first pull the log in the eye.
[Regarding the employees of the FBC who worked on the investigation]: Well, let the journalists are not investigators. For this, we have all the institutions of power. To whom it is supposed to, let him and engage. I am not going anywhere [asking for information], because my worries are full of mouth. And who is he? Take every sneeze? The pre -election year, what - is it not clear or what?

I have not read the investigation, to be honest. What you are talking about is quite serious accusations. To comment on this, at first this information must be confirmed, because so far it is just some kind of information that requires confirmation. You never know what is published - often the information does not find confirmation.

If this is true - and all this is illegal, then the president must resign, not to mention Medvedev. Since the president in the Russian system of power is fully responsible for the prime minister. Otherwise, this publication is part of the events of Putin’s election campaign to assess the possibility of sending an unpopular to the people of the prime minister. And, of course, an imitation of activity in the “fight against corruption”.

Not so long ago, Navalny published an investigation against the General Prosecutor of Russia, after which a thorough analysis was carried out, and not a single fact was confirmed. Such investigations are not grounds for the resignation of any civil servant, since they are only assumptions, such resignations are not provided by law. You must also forget about political corruption, which uses propaganda, replacement of facts and not based on any reason.
Navalny needs to remind of himself, especially, he has ambitions to run for president of Russia ( Navalny announced his intention to participate in the presidential race in December 2016 - approx. Medusa ). The easiest way to draw attention to yourself is to touch the highest official, throw a stone in someone else's garden. Navalny perfectly understands that his investigations are not grounds for the resignation of one or another civil servant, especially such a level, with his video he tries to cause popular anger.
If someone has information related to civil servants, there is a certain procedure for appeals, statements. Also, if a person reports an offense, then he is warned of responsibility for a knowingly false denunciation: you can slander anyone, but someone must bear responsibility for this. Navalny does not apply to the relevant authorities ( the FBK sent a statement to the Investigative Committee - approx. Medusa ), so he pursues his goals, play on his site, I think, nobody is worth it.

I do not believe Navalny and his investigation. We need objective facts, and not just the statements of Navalny, who builds his political career on this and is trying to evade his own violations of the law under the guise of investigation and criminal prosecution. Lee [Medvedev [the main character of the investigation], Putin, you, Petrov, Sidorov - Navalny is not authority! This is his way of making money. Tomorrow he will write about you - so what? I do not believe either to him or his team, since they are funded by our enemies, enemies of the state! ( FBK is financed through citizens' donations - approx. Medusa. )
Representatives of the Communist Party and LDPR refused to comment.
