Zyuganov supported migrants, accused “circles around power” of promoting fascism and compared his favorite philosopher Putin with Bandera
The leader of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation Gennady Zyuganov equated capitalism and fascism. He believes that the establishment of right-wing dictatorships threatens not only Western countries, but that Russian capital “would be happy to replace the methods of political manipulation with tough administrative and police control.”
Zyuganov stated this at the plenum of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, which took place last weekend, reports a correspondent "PolitNavigator".
“The policies of the Russian authorities often duplicate approaches already worked out by the right-wing forces of the West. To protect the interests of capital, it is customary to use the image of an enemy. Today, the “collective West” acts as an external threat, and, of course, there is every reason for this. Following this, other, more controversial topics appear. Circles around the government are promoting the theme of “bad migrants.” The next contender for the image of the internal enemy is the left forces,” Zyuganov said.
He believes that the Russian authorities are still “fearful of pro-Soviet sentiments in society” and therefore are secretly pushing through “White Guardism.”
“For these purposes they are trying to adapt the tsarist era, the White Guard and the ideas of such authors as Ilyin. It is an unworthy occupation to turn into gurus people who, in their hatred of the working people, who threw off the yoke of the tsar, landowners and capitalists, turned to fascism. The most famous ideologist of Russian fascism was Ivan Ilyin. He was delighted with the coming to power of the fascists in Italy, and then in Germany. The popularization of this figure in Russia follows the same patterns as the rehabilitation of Bandera and his accomplices in Ukraine,” Zyuganov said.
Let us recall that Russian President Vladimir Putin named Ilyin among the closest philosophers to himself, whose works he constantly re-reads.
It is noteworthy that Zyuganov did not dare to criticize Ilyin and the White Guard from the rostrum of the State Duma, instructing deputy Denis Parfenov to voice these theses. Philosophical research met with a harsh rebuke from speaker Vyacheslav Volodin.
The plenum of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation was not broadcast as a parliamentary meeting, but Zyuganov considered the attack against Ilyin to be the most important point of his extensive report and published this excerpt of the speech on his tg channel.
