They were going to hold a rally-meeting with politician Alexei Navalny on Pushkinskaya Square, but the Moscow Government refused to agree on the action, since federal law does not provide for a form of “meeting of citizens with politicians”, and the place on the square is already occupied by others.
In Mytishchi they said that there was a terrorist threat around and they were refusing to approve the picket without explaining the reasons. The prefecture of the Central Administrative District wrote that they did not understand the purpose of the event, and they also did not understand how the picketed object corresponded to the declared purpose. Action not approved.
On October 7, concerted, uncoordinated and not requiring coordination actions are held in various regions of Russia in support of the politician Alexei Navalny. Navalny himself was arrested for 20 days.
