Interview of Leonid Parfenov with Sergei Udaltsov. I don't like the left. I do not share Udaltsov’s views on what an ideal society is. But listening to him is useful for assessing the current situation. At one time, Udaltsov worked for me at Center Plus. As a student, he worked part-time as a newspaper distributor, using a wheeled cart to deliver it to mailboxes. Then he rose to the rank of foreman and then to distribution service manager. That is, he became professional.

Those who feed on politics love to blurt out, inappropriately and inappropriately, why not louder. It’s fashionable these days to talk about fascism. Beaten in the face - fascism! The tap wasn’t repaired – it’s back to fascism! Moreover, those who fight against all this disgrace are beginning to be called “anti-fascists.” All this, and not this, is of course very bad. Only if all everyday rubbish is identified with a state-legal phenomenon, then this rubbish becomes funny.

Everyone knows how elections are rigged on voting day. But here is an excellent illustration of the fact that falsification and deception begin much earlier, when commissions weed out undesirable candidates. Here is an example from the Lomonosovsky district of Moscow. On Friday, the electoral commission removed two municipal candidates from the elections - Pyotr Miloserdov and Konstantin Kolesnichenko.

A few days ago, we, the chief editors and publishers of independent media in the Sverdlovsk region, were invited to the regional administration. The meeting was chaired by Alexey Bagaryakov, Deputy Prime Minister of the Sverdlovsk Region. As he himself stated, he is fully in charge of the upcoming presidential elections, and he is entrusted with these responsibilities.

In the Arkhangelsk region, half of the polling stations will be equipped with web cameras, Interfax reports citing the press service of the regional government. “Software and hardware systems will appear at 407 polling stations in the region. They will allow video surveillance during voting in the upcoming presidential elections,” the message says.

The Magadan City Court on Wednesday handed down a verdict in the murder of TV presenter and editor-in-chief of one of the local TV channels Anatoly Bitkov. Local resident Stanislav Solovyov was found guilty of murder (Part 1 of Article 105 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation) and theft of property (Part 1 of Article 158 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation) of the journalist. He was sentenced to 13 years in prison to be served in a special regime correctional colony.

I don’t know whether all those detained at the previous meeting with Medvedev were left off the list this time, but Olga Kuzmenko and I were definitely included; they actually called us in separately yesterday, called us and said that this was a proposal from the presidential administration. Unfortunately, neither Olga nor I got a chance to speak. I liked how the meeting was organized - I must say thank you to the students who organized it. The questions weren't really moderated.

The Komi authorities are counting on the development of eco-tourism with the creation of the second Koygorodsky national park in the republic, Interfax reports with reference to the press service of the regional administration. “The second national park in the republic is planned to open in 2016. Its area is about 50 thousand hectares. It will include part of the Koygorodsky and Priluzsky forestry,” the message says. The ecological value of the area was confirmed by a study carried out in 2010.

In connection with Yavlinsky's withdrawal from the race, the question of how to get observers and members of the PEC through the race became particularly pressing. As I have repeatedly said, the only reliable way is through parliamentary parties. I invite everyone to use the opportunities of A Just Russia for this; we have made an official decision of the Presidium in order to give party directions to everyone.

At the end of 2011, the head of Karachay-Cherkessia , Rashid Temrezov, took 23rd position in the top ranking of 40 heads of regions of the Russian Federation according to the index of information favorability, calculated according to central media reports, Interfax reports . “The index of the head of the Karachay-Cherkess Republic was 4,753,” his press service reports.

I understand, security reasons and all that. Let's say the US president goes to Iraq. It is clear and correct that the public is not informed of anything in advance - about time, route, etc. I fully approve of the mystery. That's the kind of country it is. They can blow you up or throw a shoe there if they choose a convenient place ahead of time. But this is not the same as the Russian prime minister (not even the president) going to a peaceful corner of his own country, Russia.

The people want stability and security. Putin will not give it. What to do? I am preparing a rally on February 4 at Sakharov “For fair elections, for democracy” without Nazis and communists The Vicissitudes of LOVE An interesting question: why did people suddenly stop loving Putin? Oil prices are not falling. Propaganda, as in the best Soviet times, talks about the increase in the number of eggs and liters of milk per capita, about the growth of wages in industries and in the country as a whole.

A Cossack voluntary firefighting society has appeared in Moscow, Interfax reports with reference to the press service of the prefecture of the South-Eastern District of the capital. “The creation of a Cossack voluntary firefighting society was planned at the end of last year. More than 10 Cossacks underwent special training under the voluntary firefighting program.

The logic of the actions of the Russian authorities, who banned the participation of Grigory Yavlinsky in the presidential elections, is extremely difficult to understand. But I'll try to do it. Yavlinsky's participation in the elections played into the hands of Vladimir Putin, who really wants to return to the Kremlin. The fact is that the three candidates - Mironov, Prokhorov, Yavlinsky - would really fight among themselves for the same protest electorate.

They also said that after the Olympics the prime minister was afraid to appear in public, not wanting to be booed once again. But the spiteful critics are once again put to shame! Today Putin spoke to a crowd of 6,000 people at a rally without any problems. The meeting, which took place in the workshop of the SDS-Mash enterprise (the SDS holding last year, almost the entire team joined the ONF), was exclusive.
