At a meeting with the government a week ago, Putin once again stood over the fight. Having set an impossible task - to pay the Paris club without spending budget money - the president made it clear that explanations with creditors, as well as with the State Duma, are not a royal business. Let the branches of the authorities decide themselves where to get billions of dollars. The branches, I must say, were confused.

Prohibit “Wahhabian and other extremist activity” and introduce tight control of unregistered religious groups. Dagestan deputies have already performed twice with this legislative initiative twice in the State Duma. The first bill entered the Committee on Public Associations and Religious Organizations on May 25, 2000. The committee, reflecting, recommended it to reject it. According to unwritten Duma rules, this means quiet funeral of initiative in bureaucratic bowels.

Their slogan is simple - "Russia for Russians, Europe for the whites!" Their style is aggression. Their methods are the beating of all people who came across in the way with non -Slavic appearance. You must have met with them in transport or on the street: groups of young people shaved “to zero”, in high boots stylized under army, in camouflage or black tucked jeans, short jackets with stripes with strange symbols ...

There is no more in Karamakhi traditional stele to the heroes of the Patriotic War near the building of the rural administration, as there is no administration itself, as there is no year and a half and the very village of Karamakhi itself. And then, a few years ago, when it only gained its unkind glory, the Karamakhins with a light grin escorted to the journalists who were urgent to them to the ends of the world, who left the village very disappointed.

My good Chechen acquaintance, whom the vicissitudes of the First Chechen war were ascended into the deputy chief of the Ichkeria Department of State Security, learned about the new Sharia constitution from me. What I'm extremely proud of. In September, 96th, the victory was not yet fully celebrated, and he met me habitually - with a bottle of the now forgotten cognac "Vaines".

I met her in the city park in Dessau. Gloomy and depressed, she was in a hurry from the store home, where three children were waiting for her. In ordinary circumstances, walking with Angelica Adriano under trees among flowers would be pleased. But just a week ago, it was under these trees that three drunken neo -Nazis killed her husband, a native of Mozambique. The police said they did it because they hate foreigners.

The concept of "Wahhabis" was the nature of a political accusation in Soviet times. They were designated by groups of Muslims who expressed a desire to study Sharia independently, dispensing with Soviet muftis, Sheikhs and supporting them of the KGB. And any unofficial confession of religion in the USSR was equated with an anti -state act.

At night, dosimetrists work in the walls of the Russian White House. As one of the employees of the government building, the audit was quite ordinary, even planned, informed the Franes.ru. However, you do not have to be seven spans in the forehead to tie this "planned" feeling of every meter of the White House with a "uranium scandal".

NB: How justified to raise the issue of racism in Russia? Traditionally, racism means a negative attitude to black. Are there any manifestations here? A.O.: Racism in the Russian situation is meant the same as in any other country: when people are divided on the basis of some signs attributed to them, ethnic or racial, and various politicians are pursued in relation to these groups.

The term "racism" is now understood more broadly than thirty years ago, when these term has a negative attitude towards representatives of other racial groups. Russian society is by no means an example of tolerance.

No wonder the natives of Central Asia and the Caucasus are often contemptuously called "black" in everyday life.
