Zolotov called Navalny to the duel

Director of the Russian Guard Viktor Zolotov called the leader of the “Russia of the Future”, the founder of the Foundation for the fight against corruption by Alexei Navalny to the fight. Zolotov’s video message is published on the site and on the special services youTube channel .

Zolotov’s claims were caused by the August investigation of the FBK onfraud in the purchase of products for the Russian Guard . In his appeal, the security officer recalled another investigation that appeared back in April 2016 - about the property of his family .

Zolotov accused Navalny of lies. According to him, the occurrence of fraud with purchases is single; They are identified, and guilty are punished.

“Is everything that happens?” The director of the Russian Guard remarked. “Because you, Mr. Navalny, have never received a response ... no one ever gave you properly on your ass.”

“But now you turned to for ... at the address,” Zolotov continued. “I just call you to the duel. On the ring, on the tatami - where I promise to make you good juicy chopping out of you in a few minutes.”

Zolotov explained his challenge to the "traditions of satiscation" existing in the officer environment.

In conclusion, the director of the Russian Guard said: “If, Mr. Navalny, you will once again allow you to an offensive or slanderous tone for me or my family members, I promise you that before stepping over you and wipe your legs about you, I will arrange a show with a show for the entire personnel of the Russian Guard. And I assure you to go out into the street. I can do it.

“I am a really non -poor person,” Zolotov noted in his appeal earlier. “Unlike you, when you just sat on the pot, I served in the army, worked in production - was, by the way, a drummer of communist labor,” then he was engaged in business. Do you see how fate is? ”

Navalny and other opposition, according to the security forces, are “products from the American test tube”, “clones” and “puppets”, which “set the task of pouring mud everything around in order to destabilize the situation of both political and economic inside”. “As, for example, they now made the bulk in Ukraine,” the director of the Russian Guard continued. “And now one of the Navalny, by the name of Poroshenko, makes a spare base in Marbella (a resort in southern Spain. - Ed.). He has everything there: both business and property, real estate - that's all. Here you are.”

In the official biography of Zolotov on the Rosguard website about his work in business, as well as in production, it is not mentioned . Since the 1970s, the security forces held positions in the 9th KGB Directorate (since 1991-the Main Department of the Security, since 1996-FSO). Only in the mid-1990s did Zolotov worked for some time in the private security company Baltik-Escort as a bodyguard of the oligarch Roman Tsepov, a close friend of Vladimir Putin.

According to Medusa, Putin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov commented on Zolotov’s appeal as follows: “Sometimes with unscrupulous slander can be fought by any means. When there was an unscrupulous slander that is nothing more than a violation of the existing legislation. Of course, it is better to stop such a slander in the root.”

Peskov refused to answer the question of whether it is permissible for senior officials to make statements similar to what Zolotov made. He also said that the Kremlin does not consider the appeal of the director of the Russian Guard as a physical threat to Navalny.
