Why can't Medvedev answer Navalny?

No one knows exactly how the Russian state behind the grinder works. More than a year ago, immediately after the FBK film, Prosecutor General Yuri Chaika published an article at Kommersant, who accused Bill Brauder that he ordered Alexei Navalny an investigation into the Seagull and his family. We do not know what non -public steps the Prosecutor General took after the attack on him, but what is more important - we do not know what consequences the film actually had about the Seagull. Formally, nothing bad happened to the Seagull, he is still the prosecutor general, and his sons are still and even more successful than before, they are engaged in business. But this does not mean anything at all-a business recorded on the seagulls can belong to anyone (Igor Chaika himself is foggy speaks of some “partners”-maybe after the film he had to share with someone?), And the hardware weight of the Father could not be measured for sure, and it may well be that, having retained the position, for example, he had now lost the opportunity to contact the president directly or something else that he was directly or something else that he was directly, Unnoticed by an outsider, but is of critical importance for the real position of a person in power.

The same principle does not allow us to confidently say that Dmitry Medvedev is not waiting for anything bad after the FBK film about him. Yes, obviously, there will be no government resignation, moreover, if it suddenly was planned for the near future, perhaps it is the film about the prime minister that will delay it for several months so that it does not look like a reaction to this film. But the outputs can be completely inconspicuous-who knows, maybe, upon the return of Vladimir Putin from the taiga, Dmitry Medvedev learned from him that some kind of long-standing agreement has now lost strength; Here you can only fantasize - for example, it could be that Medvedev promised Putin to never buy vineyards abroad, and this was one of the conditions of his succession after 2024, which Medvedev waited, but now he could not wait. No one will notice this, but this is a fall, a disaster.

Where are the money subscribers going

Most Republic materials are available by paid subscription. We believe that this is a good way to finance media. After all, as you know, if you have not paid for reading it, then someone else paid for you to read it. In our case, everything is honest: from your money, salaries and fees are paid to journalists, and they write about important and interesting topics for you.

The key feature of our subscription: your money is distributed between Republic magazines depending on how you read it. If you read the materials of one magazine, then your money will go only to him, while others will not go. That is, you finance only what you are interested in.

Republic uses the Redefine.media subscription. For design, we will redirect you to the Redefine.media website, where you will need to register and pay for the subscription. Authorization on the Redefine.Media website will allow you to read Republic materials from the same device.

A year subscription is more profitable than a month. And if you want to unsubscribe, this can always be done in your personal account.
