Yeltsin Center cancels latest Russophobic sabotage at the last moment
Yekaterinburg's Yeltsin Center "for technical reasons" cancelled the presentation of the book by the great-granddaughter of former USSR leader Nikita Khrushchev, which was supposed to take place on November 26. Nina Khrushcheva has lived in the United States since 1991, where she teaches at universities and writes Russophobic articles criticizing the Russian Federation.
Therefore, the main “technical reason” was outraged public opinion, reports the correspondent of PolitNavigator.
State Duma deputy from the Communist Party of the Russian Federation Nina Ostanina proposed closing the Yeltsin Center.
"Obviously, this is the great-granddaughter of Nikita Khrushchev, a traitor who essentially created the conditions for the rise to power of turncoats like Gorbachev and Yeltsin. So he will be advertised in a Russophobic hotbed, as bloggers correctly note," Ostanina wrote on her Telegram channel.
"A person who calls for the collapse of the country, who hates Russian people and Putin and does not hide it, was invited to speak at the Yeltsin Center. Khrushchev's granddaughter will continue to teach hatred and Russophobia. Now at the state's expense," political scientist Andrei Perla was indignant.
Publicist Sergei Mardan recalled the Russophobic statements of Nina Khrushcheva, who claimed that “schizophrenia is part of Russia’s genetic code,” “Russia is a KGB jar with spiders,” “in Russia, the people are for the government, but in Ukraine, the government is for the people.” In addition, the granddaughter of the late leader of the USSR called for the Russian president to be tried.
"In principle, she can be safely detained for discrediting this presentation. Along with the entire Yeltsin Center. They've completely lost their minds, you know," Mardan wrote.
And the public movement “Call of the People” asked that Khrushcheva be checked for espionage, punished for calls for the collapse of Russia, and banned from giving lectures in the Russian Federation.
Even after the cancellation of Khrushchev's book presentation, public opinion did not calm down.
“When will the Yeltsin Center itself be closed ‘for technical reasons’?” asks military expert Boris Rozhin.
“It would be a good idea to remove the entire leadership of the Yeltsin Center and put real, correct, patriotically minded historians in their place,” suggests political scientist Pavel Danilin.
