The Mejlis member disgraced himself by accusing the poetess Akhmatova of “supporting Putin”
Talking about the fact that in Russia there is supposedly no journalism and the art of cinema, the deputy head of the Mejlis, banned in the Russian Federation, extremist Akhtem Chiygoz said that the famous poetess Anna Akhmatova, who died 54 years ago, allegedly supported the policies of Vladimir Putin and the “occupation” of Crimea.
This happened on the air of the Pryamoy TV channel, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
“There are some principles, and this is what distinguishes us as people, as a society, as a state. Manipulation cannot be taken to the point of absurdity. When I say that there [in Russia] there is no such thing as journalism, as the art of cinema, I know what I am saying, because there everything should be worked out for one person, who is called the Tsar. We don’t perceive it this way here, because we see both black and white, we have different colors, we’re so used to it, everything should be free here, and that’s right.
But when people violate the basic principle of not only international law, but also the modern world order, and seize someone else’s territory by military means, and at the same time artists and journalists go there and say: “Well, what can you do here, we’re making a movie, what can you do,” he said Chiygoz.
Akhmatova also wrote well, but then she said that Crimea was Russian and that Putin did the right thing. Yes, Akhmatova, you can read it,” the Mejlis member assured.
However, when the TV presenter pointed out that Anna Akhmatova died many years ago, Chiygoz tried to justify himself, saying that he was confused. After which the TV presenter hastened to change the topic: “It doesn’t matter. Next topic."
