Yesterday's meeting between Vladimir Putin and the staff of Komsomolskaya Pravda did not contain any revelations. Well, don’t consider Putin’s next rudeness towards Latvia as such: “They won’t get the Pytalovsky district, but the ears of a dead donkey.” Nevertheless, this meeting makes a strong impression. After all, it was intended to demonstrate the ideal, from the Kremlin’s point of view, relationship between the head of state and the press.

Anyone can end up on trial. Those who have money for a lawyer will hire one themselves, and local authorities should provide for the poor. But they don't want to spend money. Therefore, in the Moscow City Duma, and then in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the idea of ​​compulsory insurance in case of need for a lawyer arose. That is, the authorities suggest saving money ahead of time for an excuse after committing a crime. Novye Izvestia writes about this initiative.

Just before Easter, in the midst of Holy Week and preparations for the holiday, a rather important and eloquent event somehow quietly and imperceptibly happened: at a meeting of the Commission on Religious Associations under the Government of the Russian Federation, religious schools were denied state accreditation, that is, the recognition of religious diplomas schools by the state.

It seems that foreign entrepreneurs in Russia took seriously the words from President Putin’s message about tax terror that must be stopped.

The current government is on the threshold of great shocks. About this today who just does not speak. You don’t have to go far - President Putin himself and says, for example, in the last message to the Federal Assembly.

Now, when you call from a landline phone to a cell phone, you have to wait for a separate bill for this conversation, regardless of where your mobile interlocutor is located.

The proposal to unite the subjects of the Federation received 60% of the votes. 6 out of 10 deputies also voted for the new name - Kamchatka region, reports REGNUM news agency. The name Kamchatka Territory did not pass. By this, the deputies wanted to emphasize that they are not the Perm region, which became a region after unification with the Komi-Permyak Autonomous Okrug. The Koryaks even went to the Perm region for experience.

Conclusion: it is possible that it was not the royal family that was reburied in the Peter and Paul Fortress. Let us note that the Russian Orthodox Church even in 1994, when preparations for the ceremony began, expressed doubts about the authenticity of the “Ekaterinburg remains.” But then the authorities needed this symbolic gesture - a kind of reckoning with the past, and the examination did not disappoint. Now there seems to be no reason to doubt the accuracy of American scientists.
