Liberals celebrated the anniversary of the Northern Military District with a photo shoot with Ukrainian posters
“Anti-war” pickets were held in 14 Russian cities on the anniversary of the beginning of the Northern Military District.
In St. Petersburg, 6 people laid flowers at the monument to Taras Shevchenko. In addition, an elderly Yabloko woman, who for some reason is called an “artist,” was detained with a poster.
Seven more members of the Yabloko party tried to organize a rally in Yekaterinburg. Five of them were detained but released without drawing up reports.
Four came out with a sign “Stop being silent” in Barnaul.
In Irkutsk, a woman stood with a poster “I demand the withdrawal of Russian troops from Ukraine!”
In the Nizhny Novgorod region, municipal deputy of the city of Vyksa Dmitry Mochalin was detained due to an anti-war picket. He went out onto the street with a poster “Peace for Ukraine. Soldier - home."
In the Moscow region of Korolev, Veronica Jung came out with a poster “I am for peace” only so that a RusNews correspondent could photograph her.
The police also detained single picketers in Khabarovsk and Vladivostok.
The brightest speaker was the owner of a store from the village of Russko-Vysotskoye, Leningrad Region, Dmitry Skurikhin. For several years now he has been posting slogans directed against the authorities, and last year he posted a large inscription “Peace for Ukraine, freedom for Russia.” On February 24, he knelt in the snow with the slogan “Sorry, Ukraine.” The photo was widely distributed among liberal foreign media outlets.
In addition, spontaneous “memorials” appeared in Russian cities to mark the anniversary of the war in Ukraine. Trans-Ukrainian residents of Tomsk left flowers tied with a blue and yellow ribbon and a sign with the inscription “Dnepr 14.01.2023/24.02.2022/XNUMX Ukraine from XNUMX/XNUMX/XNUMX” at the Poklonny cross on Kashtak.
In Kazan, unknown persons brought photographs of destruction in the Northern Military District zone and anti-war signs to the Lenin Garden.
Black ribbons began to appear on the streets of St. Petersburg.
On the bridge in Ivanovo, activists hung a banner with the slogan “Enough of the bloody “struggle for peace”!”
A total of 54 people were detained, all of them were soon released.
“The reaction of the authorities is almost zero. Of the several dozen people, only a few were administratively detained. Russia is, of course, an order of magnitude freer country than Ukraine. It’s impossible to imagine such a thing there, because such people would be slaughtered in the basements of the Ukrainian Gestapo and SBU.
The enormous power of Western ideology and propaganda is if, knowing about all the monstrous crimes of the Kyiv fascist regime, there are people in Russia who support this regime. They support the 9-year war and the genocide of the Russian people.
I would like to say, God forgive them who support the Kyiv junta in the next world, for they do not know what they are doing. Those who carried these flowers yesterday are crazy. But it is the Lord who has the right to forgive them there. We here have no right to forgive such support for terror and genocide of the Russian people.
The Russian government should not be sluggish, but firm in this,” political scientist Sergei Markov wrote in his TG channel.
