Revenge is served cold

On the anniversary of the "case of Golunov" came the "return". How security officials ruin the presidential rating

Ilya Azar was given 15 days at the moment when the country is trying to recover from unprecedented economic shock, and a rating of trust in President Putin fell to a historical minimum. The month remained to the military parade, which, according to the idea of ​​the authorities, should mean that life is included in the usual direction, the virus is supposedly defeated and it remains only to “reset the constitution” in order to fix the new stability. And in this situation, some wise guy came up with the head of the journalist, well known in Russia and Europe, besides the municipal deputy elected by citizens, for the fact that he stood near the police building in the center of Moscow with a poster.

You do not have to be a genius of political technology to understand what will happen next: publications in all world media, an additional reason for irritation of citizens who are already exhausted by self -isolation, a campaign of professional solidarity. In parallel-new single pickets (and for someone it is important to defend the right to a picket-one of the latter, objectively speaking, we still have the remaining ones), new detentions, new publications and a new indignation. Based on the “Azar case”, journalists and Moscow politicians have already visited the Avtozaks and police sections, whose opinion millions of people are listening.

So who could be the genius who arranged all this?

Who decided to inflate the hatred of citizens to power on the eve of the parade and the new constitution, when everyone should rejoice and rejoice? Who secretly plays for the opposition, even if he does not have enough mind to understand this?

If you leave the option of simple stupidity behind the brackets (after all, it is too extreme even for our repressive machine), then the handwriting is quite recognizable. These are those people who, firstly, believe that clubs are the best way to resolve any political disputes. And secondly, faces that are of extreme vindictiveness, holding in their cold heads a list of everyone who once offended them, once, on occasion, avenge.

Azar was one of the initiators of the campaign in defense of Ivan Golunov a year ago - he then went to the picket first, and after him another 50 thousand people came. Of course, no one has forgotten this, of course

And now offended by Kolunov -Azar decided that it was time to act. Coronavirus is around, no one will notice, everyone will keep silent.

And the guy will receive a lesson for the future: he will know in which country he lives.

Acting in the same vein, the keepers of our national security have already provoked last year not only a wave of solidarity around Golunov, but also protests regarding completely harmless and boring initially elections to the Moscow City Duma, and then promotions in support of new political prisoners. These actions were involved, if anyone forgot, people who had previously tried to stay away from politics - like actors or priests. Now someone decided that he could repeat, and the situation is suitable-epidemiological, increased readiness.

Those who are now trying according to the plan to prepare a parade, a zeroled constitution, normalization and new take -off of popular love for the president should be shocked by such “competent authorities”. If you give the last one more, they will easily surpass their own achievements last year: they will involve an even larger number of citizens into the opposition policy. The Levada Center, meanwhile, was recorded by another fall in the confidence rating for President Putin-up to 25%. And political technologists in uniform make their own contribution to this.

What can I do?

More than 50 thousand people signed a petition of Novaya Gazeta demanding to free Ilya Azar and all detainees for pickets
