The Russian Guard intends to file lawsuits in defense of the honor and dignity of its employees in connection with accusations of non -compliance with the rights and legitimate interests of citizens during mass events. This is stated in a statement by the Department of Special Services for Media Relations.
The Russian Guard argues that a number of organizations and individual citizens are trying to "attract attention by conducting far -fetched prepositions of various kinds of shares, as a rule, of a provocative nature." The organizers and participants of the shares, who received an “adequate reaction to their actions in accordance with the law“ by the security forces, “initiate the appearance of negative publications, threaten them, their families, relatives and friends on social networks, blogs, through comments on some printed and electronic media,” the statement said.
“Such facts undermine the authority of law enforcement officers, form a hostile attitude and excessive aggression towards them from some citizens,” they complain in the special service. “At the same time, everyday or unreasonably does not notice everyday with the risk of life, the courageous work of military personnel and employees of the department to counteract terrorism, ensure the law -book and security citizens, the protection of especially important objects, the fight against crime. "
Publications "often cross the boundaries of the permitted" and discredit the security forces in the eyes of society. “This does not contribute to the correct understanding by citizens of claims presented to the authorities, gives rise to hostility,” the Russian Guard notes.
"The Russian Guard focuses on the fact that she is ready for a dialogue on the merits considered by the public, the media. At the same time, he does not intend to endure biased accusations, slander and insults against him and in the manner prescribed by law, will provide the defense of the honor and dignity of the troops of the National Guard and directly for each soldier and the employee," the statement emphasizes.
On June 16, the Commander -in -Chief of the Russian Guard Viktor Zolotov said that protest actions in Russia are becoming similar to "color revolutions" . “Protest actions have obvious systematicity and are held according to similar scenarios that“ color revolutions ”in other countries. The true goals of the fight against corruption are replaced by general destabilization, the creation of chaos. Under the pretext of violations of rights and democratic freedoms in Russia, the media of the European Union, Great Britain and the United States conduct constant information attacks to discredit the political leadership of our country,” Zolotov said.
The Commander -in -Chief called one of the main tasks of his department to counteract attempts to destabilize the situation in the country. "The Russian Guard already has a similar experience. Countering attempts at destabilization has always been one of the main tasks of the law enforcement troops," Zolotov said.
The methods of "shaking the situation" in society, "often based on the feelings of respectable citizens, are all tricks and sophisticated," for which the Internet is actively used, the Commander -in -Chief of the Russian Guard emphasized. Therefore, the opposition of the "socio-political destabilization" should be provided, first of all, in the information space. Zolotov said that the Russian Guard "actively predicts and analyzes the operational situation" and takes into account the emergence of "new forms of illegal behavior."
On June 15, Vladimir Putin during a direct line stated that protests in Russia are organized for “self -disclosure” and are used for provocation and aggravation of the situation . “I am ready to talk with everyone who is really aimed at improving people's lives, aimed at solving problems facing the country, and not to use the difficulties - and difficulties are always and everywhere - for their own political PR. To use difficulties as an instrument for their own promotion, in order to cash in the political sense on these difficulties, only aggravating them.
