In Vladivostok, the authorities are trying to disrupt the opening of the campaign headquarters of the leader of the progress party Alexei Navalny. This was reported by the head of the election campaign Leonid Volkov.
“There is hell. The local authorities are doing everything to disrupt the opening of the headquarters,” Volkov wrote. Over the past three weeks, the owners of eight premises have already broken concluded lease agreements under pressure from security forces. According to Volkov, Navalny's Stunes have three more options. They will be announced about them four hours before the headquarters planned at 18:30, "so that one of the options to last."
The coordinator of the Vladivostok branch of the party Sofya Krivtsova was forced to stop her work after the search, constant surveillance and "endless conversations in the local FSB."

The court arrested him under Article 19.3 of the Code of Administrative Offenses (failure to comply with the legal requirement of a police officer) for a rally on March 26.
Local lawyer Maxim Chikhunov, who took over the organization of the opening of the headquarters, "switched, in fact, to the semi -underground position," Volkov notes. The activist on the eve was detained at the airport in connection with the case of allegedly interrupted rooms on his car. A few hours later, Chikhunov was released, but on Monday morning they detained again.
“We are also very supported by the deputy of the city Duma of Vladivostok Yuri Kuchin. And right now, Yuri writes that he is being delayed too. Just like that, without any reason. They are simply knocked out by everyone who helps with the opening of the headquarters,” Volkov notes.
“Honestly, the degree of lawlessness is much higher than even in any of the southern regions,” Volkov writes. “The 30th headquarters of Navalny’s campaign will open today at 18:30 anyway - they don’t transplant everyone, the hell will be opened and will work in Primorye. 5000 signatures and more than 1,100 volunteers are already registered, we will not leave them without a staff.”
Volkov himself and other activists who arrived with him in Vladivostok are trying not to let him go into the city. Their car was stopped three times on the way from the airport to verify documents. “For an hour and a half, 3 km were overcome, of which 500 meters are on foot; until the opening is another one and a half hours and 50 km; statistics well, so so,” Volkov noted .
“The room where the opening should begin in an hour, two FSB officers came, demanded to close the premises and de -energize,” Volkov wrote later. “The entire city center was blocked, stationary posts and traffic police machines;

The owners were pressure by representatives of the authorities. “It seems that this is such a new remarkable AP strategy,” Volkov noted. “After the green.”

As a result, Navalny received a burn of a medium -sized right eye. On May 4, on the fact of the attack on Navalny, the case was opened under Article 116 of the Criminal Code (beatings or other violent actions that caused physical pain, but did not cause harm to health).
On May 9, Navalny was operated on in Barcelona . As Navalny wrote, it will take several months to restore vision.
