An egg was thrown at State Duma deputy from “A Just Russia” (whatever the government), famous oppositionist Ilya Ponomarev, during an interview in Krasnoyarsk.

Maybe this is exactly what the authorities and the Russian Orthodox Church were trying to achieve - inciting extremism and dividing the people into “ours” and “yours”? The murder of two women in Kazan is a blatant and wild case, as is the sawing down of crosses, but this is exactly what should have logically followed the unfair trial of PUSSY RIOT. As they say, we woke up the beast. Cases involving crosses, and especially murder, are indeed subject to trial, fair and harsh.

Since the beginning of summer, about 40 volunteers have been teaching immigrant children Russian for free in St. Petersburg. The idea to help foreigners integrate more quickly into the local environment was born in March.

I spent half a month with my relatives in Vologda. Grandma watches TV all day long, alternating the stupidest series of the Rossiya TV channel with staged trials. I had no idea before how many of them there are, these “court clocks” and other rubbish. From the grandmother’s room the screams of “witnesses”, “victims” and “all sorts of maniacs” were regularly heard.
