We have been informed that we’re not allowed to ship devices with the encryption capabilities of the PineTab, PinePhone and Pinebook Pro into the Russian Federation. Shipping these devices could (and has multiple times in the past) lead to confiscation of the devices at the border by customs and even to being outright banned or barred from entering the country.

so today (yesterday technically) russian soldiers were shooting in armenian village. what was going on is described pretty well in this video in russian language.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSP7AaudUWE #russia #armenia
so today we found out interesting things. the fact that telegram was banned in russia is not as interesting alone, but more interesting is that it is the only messenger that got banned. from which we can speculate on how the others work. #telegram #russia #yarovaya_law #surveillance
what I value, and understood recently that it has to be valued, is that not only Artsakh ministry of defence, but also Armenian ministry of defence, publish names of the killed staff. They publish different names.
Armenian ministry of defence does not hide the presence of it’s people in Artsakh.
I did not know this can be an issue, before I saw how Putin’s Russia behave. Russia does not acknowledge it’s military men, when they get catched. Russia shows their wives (or may be those are not real wives) on tv and says - they already left the army. Yesterday.
Like if it is easy to leave army. Like if any one would like to die for Russia, by knowing that his death will never be acknowledged, accepted. They’ve sent him to die, and they reject him at the same time. They won’t bargain for him, in case he will become a captive, but at the same time, they keep captives, or let’s say hostages like Savchenko to bargain benefits for her.

it would be understandable, if you, by being marginals, or opposition in your countries, who knows how government controls media, and does it’s propaganda, feel somehow close, have some solidarity with the same people in Russia. To know what marginals and non government controlled media writes. To know what people think.
So the “russia today” which is sometimes shared here expresses the point of view of the Russian government. Which shouldn’t be taken as truth only because you dislike your own government. Or if you dislike USA.
That is why I would like to present to you the site, which describes itself as “the real russia today”: https://meduza.io/en
formerly, lenta dot ru, which wasn’t opposition or pro west news site, was taken under control of the state (as most other media) and some of it’s former employees formed meduza.io site. i think you have to know this side. it’s real in terms that it’s not a state propaganda. it’s one of the remaining free media. very weak, alas.
You may dislike it, because you won’t understand many texts. It’s targeted the internal reader, while government RT targets you, uses the language you can understand, and knows which strings to pull to manipulate it’s market. (:

Putin introduced to Duma a new law proposal, about a creation of National Guards. Corresponding information have appeared in the electronic database of the parliament.
Law defines composition and the tasks of the new force. In particular, guards can check the citizen’s documents, arrest them in order to hand to the police, “if there are enough evidences of law violation or administrative offense”.
Also, National Guards can use force and arms without issuing a warning “in case of direct threat to citizens or other guards”. “Guard has a right to not issue a warning before using physical force, special means, or firearms, if delaying the action can threaten life or health of the citizen, other guard, or can lead to serious consequences”.
Among the “special means” the law lists rubber batons, gas grenades, handcuffs, means of distracting by sound and light effects, the means for breaking barriers and forced stoppage of transport, as well as service animals.
Guards can beleaguer terrains, in particular in order to prevent mass rallies, restrict or prohibit the movement of pedestrians and vehicles.
Opposition assumes that practically, it’s a creation of the alternative army, aimed to protect the regime and Putin personally. Emiliya Slabunova from the “Yabloko” commented that “National Guards is an attempt to secure the authorities from the protests and rallies before the coming elections”. “State turns in to monster, and increases power structures at the expenses of education and healthcare”.

Azerbaijan was waiting for this revenge bore than 20 years.
Military and political preparations for the current events have been done during all these years.
Interesting question - why exactly now?
…
That’s simple: only Azerbaijan needs war today. And certainly known why - to return lost in 1994 territories, where now located not recognized Nagorno-Karabakh Republic. Return of the territories, populated by Armenians under the control of Azerbaijan - that is understandable, concrete, never hidden, loudly declared task. Which wasn’t possible to solve 22 years by political means, and now, according to the definition of Karl von Klausevitz, is starting “the continuation of politics by other means”. However that is a politics of Azerbaijan alone, not the “all conflict sides”.
And it’s very much understandable, how this war can be stopped in 20 seconds. By one phone call from Kremlin to Baku, and one simple phrase: “Armenia is our ally”. Nobody in Baku is ready to fight Russia. And they would “go back to the previously prepared positions”. And defer “the continuation of politics by other means” to the better times, which are worser.

also from Waal:
Under this scenario, President Vladimir Putin can then intervene as the real peacemaker between the two sides and demand a peace deal that includes Russian peacekeepers on the ground.
The trouble with this theory is that Russia, although the most important secondary actor in the Karabakh conflict, does not control the situation on the ground. It is not powerful enough to make the Armenian or Azerbaijani military forces do as it wants. They are strongly independent bodies, answerable only to their own presidents. Russia’s ability to shape events is probably smaller than it looks.

It looks like Russia forces us to buy two Su-30 military air-planes. Probably it will cost us ~60.000.000 of dollars. I don’t quite get why do we need these planes.
There is a publication on Russian military blog, that there was some event a couple of days ago, during which “we asked” them to sell us these air-planes.
You probably are not aware, that we always “ask them”. And then they generously agree.
A couple of years ago we suddenly decided to “ask” them to support us in joining their union, which obviously they needed more for some reason, and which brings more problems to us, including, but not limited to the rise of prices, and no tangible benefit. Except if it can count as the benefit that Russia does not lead, or kindle war right now here. Yet.
Back to the theme. Armenia long ago decided to not develop it’s military aviation. It’s too expensive and not reasonable. Buying two Su-30’s sounds like nonsense to me.
These are heavy air-planes, that are able to carry a lot of weight to the very long distances, like a couple of thousands kilometres. What are we going to do with them? Attack ISIS? No seriously.
They are also completely useless, by taking in to consideration that Azerbaidjan successfully manages to block Stepanakert airport with it’s S-300 sets. What is the use of Su-30 in these circumstances?
Even if we would need a fighter jet, MIGs would fit more - they are lighter, more manoeuvrable and suitable for use on short distances.
$60.000.000 could be used to protect our near border villages and towns from the constant fire they get. There are many ways this money could be used instead.

Imagine a country, which created it’s own global navigation system. Soon after that the government obliged certain class of drivers to buy and keep in a car a tachograph. this device needs to be acquired from the government, and the driver must pay her monthly salary for obtaining it. later, all those drivers get the new requirement: before making a trip, they have to visit a special website, and register the source and destination points of the trip. then the site will generate a route for the driver. the website does not work well. sometimes it’s impossible to register, and sometimes it does not generate optimal, or even feasible route. the driver has to buy another device, which tracks him, and if he makes even a small change in the route, then the huge penalty follows. also, this class of drivers needs to pay for the roads.
surveillance system is provided by a private company which got a permit and huge financial aid from the government to create a web site, and the device, as well as to build checkpoints on the roads to get the fees. this company belongs to the son of the president’s close friend. as well as many other private projects that get government money.
in spite of protests, decision is enforced, and president publicly says that his friend’s son is talented young entrepreneur. why not to give him those drivers?
do you think such an utopian country exists? yes, it’s called russian federation. apparently.

There is a discussion now in the Duma about the possibility of introducing of exit visas for citizens of Russia. Radio station “Speaks Moscow” quoted the statement Vadim Solovyov - the deputy chairman of the Duma Committee on Constitutional Legislation and State Construction.
“Now we get a lot of proposals to introduce the exit visas. Official Foreign Ministry officials and security officers will explain the citizen which kind of dangers he might have if he leave a country. And when he got the official information, signs that, says yes, I know, I know the case, I was warned, and, nevertheless, I insist, then he should be given the opportunity to go, “- he said.

Three young pupils (12-14 years old) came and sat to the table near us. They were talking about “coconuts”, referring to “Americans”. Because “Americos” leads to “Kokos”, which is “coconut” in Russian. They were discussing how Russia and Russians are superior, and better than USA and Americats in every aspect. In sports, in military, just everywhere. And they were repeating this “coconuts” often.
We saw them at the Subway cafeteria. They were eating Subway sandwiches and drinking Coca-Cola.

i guess, this is to simplify your work - you don’t need to make a portrait in order to hung on your wall yourself. moreover, portrait which you have made may not be good enough. so you have these approved portraits.

every time I say something about how Russia does something, in my opinion, negative, like censorship, limiting freedom of speech, some people react by defending it, they say that USA is no better. Like It’s okay to do that if USA does that too.
No, it’s not okay! It’s the same as saying that if Peter have stolen, it does give a right to Vasia to steal. No, it does not. Nobody should steal.
And yes, I believe, USA and Europe are in much better situation. And people have more control over the government. And corruption is incomparably weaker. And courts are incomparably more independent. And yes, Russian imperialism and obscurantism affects me, because it affects my country. It’s like American imperialism affects people somewhere let’s say in the middle east.
I would like to add something for my Russian friends. I love your country, I love your language, I love your culture. I really love them. You are amazing. I just wish you be free from tyranny and become a well developed modern nation. With cool technologies. To become a real player, to signify. Not by selling oil. By creating technologies, by science. You can do that. That’s your government’s fault that you’re going back in time now. I wish you to be able to change it.

Motives are extremely important. sometimes even more important than actions.
This is why i have very mixed feelings every time i see a poster with Snowden’s words. Because i am not sure he did what he did because of his beliefs or ideology. I am afraid, he did it because he was simply a Russian spy. And because he was paid to defame US. When you get paid, and you get paid by the other interested party, it’s not heroism, it’s something which pretends to be heroism, but it’s not.
No wonder Wikipedia has a rule that those who write articles should not be paid for that. That’s a different motive. And that motive changes everything.

Minkin’s article was the best.
When your ally fully depends on you; when he has nowhere else to go; when not only his well-being is in your hands, but also his life… Then the ally like that is called hostage.

So Putin does not care that Artsakh(NK) Armenians will remain in total isolation from the world. He just needs Armenia to sign Eurasian-Union agreement at any price.
the preliminary treaty states that the customs checkpoints will be created in Kashatagh, Lachin, and other roads going to Karabakh. Imported products from Nagorno-Karabakh to Armenia with have relatively high tariffs, in accordance to the Eurasian Economic Union. According to the circulating news, Armenia plans to sign this treaty on October 10, and will go into effect on January 1(2015)

I have translated one of comments from here
I believe it’s not possible to look at the problem of language in Ukraine from the refined point of view.
Let’s ask the question - should you invite relatives to your house? Yes. But what if relatives are thieves? Then you should not. This is the difference between the “refined” and real question.
In the refined way, - two language state and calling relatives for a dinner is a good way, but in realistic way - it’s dangerous.
Thus I would like to stress two problems. Even three.
First - attacks on neighbor states are started from mentioning Russian speaking people. By mentioning so called compatriots - though it’s hard in Russia, after the defeat of USSR. Everybody is compatriot.
And the second question. Isn’t aversion of a language a reflection? Dislike toward Russian was born in Latvia, Ukraine, may be Georgia. Not because the language is bad, but because it serves as Trojan horse.
It is used to ride in, and then bereave of land. Thus, it is necessary to blame not the language, and not play games by using it, as Kremlin is doing, but give up using the language as a mean of taking away the lands. That’s it.
And supplementary question - why nobody worries about language in Asia? Why only Latvia, Estonia, Ukraine, and Georgia?
Why we see that in East European countries, but not in Asia, where it’s stronger?
And the last. Recently, by jesting Klichko, separatists uploaded a video. He makes a slip in speaking.
But I wonder. Klichko, when he was speaking in one of the Kiev schools, speaks great, pure Russian language. And kids can understand him. Ukrainian major, Ukrainian kids, but the language of communication - Russian. That’s even after annexation of Crimea and fire in Donbass.
And then, in the corridors, Klichko speaks Ukrainian, where he’s being “trapped” by separatists.
Can you imagine that any major in Russia can have a talk, even in a Russian village, in Ukrainian language?
Who is more tolerant then?

Was it nice by naive Europe and US to support movement in Ukraine toward EU, and then refuse to help in case of Russian aggression? They didn’t expect it? Or they are so afraid of Russia?
Was it nice that when US, Britain and Russia demanded Ukraine to refuse from all their nuclear power, and promised to be warrants of Ukrainian territorial wholeness, that Russia was first who broke the agreement, by aggression, while UK and US just forgot about the paper. US even refuses to sell weapons to Ukraine.
Now, because of absence of western military support, Ukraine cannot fight Russian tanks, and cannot fight professionals from Russia. That’s why Poroshenko had to retreat and do what the monster, the Russian Tsar wants.
but that was predicted back in March by the former Putin’s advisor, and I have shared his talk in Russian yesterday. Putin will go as far as West will allow him.
What can stop tanks? Unfortunately, yes, other tanks can stop tanks. Man with a bag did not stop tanks moving to Tiananmen square. Tanks killed people.
We here know very well that the only reason Azerbaijan did not start war against Armenia yet, is that we are trying to not lag far behind their militarization, which is very hard, cause we are blocked, and don’t have oil money they have. Anyway.
Tanks can stop tanks. Yazidis don’t have military power, that’s why genocide of yazidis in #2014 was possible. And no one, no one helped them from the civilized world. As well, as nobody is helping Ukraine to survive Russian aggression.
This is a very old interview, which dates March 28. Unfortunately there are no good resources in English, and best talks of Illarionov are not available in English.
Now we know, why Yanukovich refused to sign agreement with EU in the last moment. He said to his close people, that Putin promised to take Crimea and Eastern part of Ukraine if he signs the paper. He was pale and frightened as never, as they say.
Also now we know, that military operation in Crimea had no connection with Yanukovich running out of Ukraine, because according to the Defence Ministry of Russia, it started in Feb 20, four days before he run away. Yes, they minted medals, “for taking crimea”, and we can see on those medals that operation started earlier, than they were saying it started.
Also we know from the very careful studies in April, that in all Ukrainian regions overwhelming majority of the people did not feel insecure because of religion, language or ethnicity, and that majority wanted to keep Ukrainian wholeness, continue to be Ukrainian citizens. It’s obvious that there was no people’s movement, but all the troubles were organized by emulating of movement by Russian SpetzNaz.
And corruption, that’s a very good lever if you want to colonize someone. That’s the lever Russia knows how to use.
It’s very pity that by having their great potential, their scientists and engineers they, instead of creating a civilized and developed country, make draconian laws and force free and clever people to emigrate from Russia, so that only controllable and manipulatable, non educated people remain there. I hope one day Russia will become a country, we all would want to be friends with. Not the country which forces Armenia to change national language. Not the country which wants all resources, to control anything, and wants to dictate everything, pressures so hard, by not giving us to take a breath.
Yes, if you don’t like US in Iraq, you shouldn’t like Russia in Ukraine or in Armenia. Let us be free.

Putin is playing this very duplicitous game of keeping the level of intervention low enough that it doesn’t attract major attention and pushback from publics in the West, and he’s been fairly successful at that. I think he does not want to lose, but I think we have to also be aware of the fact that he could escalate much more rapidly and in a sense he’s already passed the point where he can draw back, I think, particularly easily.

did you notice how it happened? how Vladimir Putin, the man, who robbed it’s own country, centralized power, repressed journalists, raised corruption, subjugated all the media, and courts, repressed minorities, put to jail innocent girls, responsible for dead journalists, like Politkovskaia, killed innocent people, including Russians, in Chechnya, Beslan, etc, supported killers of Magnitski(if it’s not him), made new anti-gay laws, laws oppressing freedom of speech, and bureaus, that have power to shut down any web site just because they want to, etc, etc, etc… did you notice how this man became your hero?
Just because you don’t like some steps of USA, it doesn’t mean that you need to like same steps made by Russia!
If Peter have stolen something, it does not mean, that Vasia can steal! It does not mean you have to support Vasia’s robberies just because you don’t like that Peter were doing that. You cannot justify Vasia for that!

Following his compliments toward Nazarbayev, a certain dog-whistle chauvinism ran through the rest of Putin’s response. He highlighted Kazakhstan’s large-sprawl emptiness, blatantly underestimating Kazakhstan’s population. He offered a slanted comment about how Kazakhstan must remain within the Russian world, which is part of the “global civilization” – noting, by turn, that Kazakhstan’s culture is apparently not.
On multiple occasions, ethnic Russians in northern Kazakhstan have reminded me of their belief that Central Asian states have never existed. Kazakhstan, one told me, is but a Bantustan, with proper civilization brought only by the arrival of Russians. Putin’s comments fall directly within this vein. Kazakhstan can be identified with the persona of Nazarbayev, but once he’s gone, why would there be any reason to continue with this experiment in statehood?

True: we made mistakes. We tried too hard to pander to Russia in the Yeltsin era, ignoring the growth of corruption, authoritarianism and revanchism. We overlooked Russians’ resentment as their country drifted from the European mainstream and our vulnerability to the steps they could take in response. We neglected Ukraine, Moldova, Belarus and the countries of the Caucasus. The Blair government was bewitched by the Putin regime’s offer of cooperation against Islamist terrorism in 2001. We have been frequently dazzled by the spurious commercial prospects offered by Russia – in particular BP’s decision to form an alliance with Rosneft, the main Russian oil company, was a shameful example of greed and short-sightedness.

Russia is a revisionist power
Russia wants to rewrite the rules in three ways. First, it does not believe that its neighbours should make their own decisions about their geopolitical future. Russia’s security, in short, depends on these countries’ insecurity. Russia particularly begrudges the former captive nations of the Soviet empire their freedom, their prosperity, and their independence. These pose an existential challenge to the stagnant and autocratic model of government pioneered by the Putin regime.

Putin went on to praise the philosophy of the “Eurasian idea” and to assert that Kazakhs endorse it and see benefits to “remaining in the space of the larger Russian world.”

Apparently it’s good that we don’t have Russians in Armenia. Otherwise Putin would “protect” them, and we would have bloody events like in Ukraine. But stop! Putin will protect us from ourselves! The paper we signed with Russia, CSTO paper, contains a point that Russia may “help” our authorities in case of inner, not only outer threat. It means they’ll “save” us from having democratic elections, and change corrupted government. They need this corrupted and puppet government to dictate to us. Otherwise, if we try, they’ll protect us from ourselves.
Also, they’ll protect people of Artsakh. They desperately need their forces there. Once they enter, they’ll never get out.

At the left - Russian and Armenian flags.
At the right side there is a “Komsomolskaya Pravda” banner, they’ve opened Armenian service. It’s one of the most reactionary Russian newspapers. They, for instance, published a text which said like “we’re sorry Hitler didn’t have time made lamp shades from grandfathers of those who support Maidan”.
This also means - “BE CAREFUL WHEN WALK LATE AT NIGHT ALONE”

Garry Kasparov:
You know who doesn’t have any doubt that Russia is at war with Ukraine? Russians.
It’s the supposed leaders of the free world who are in state of denial of Putin’s war on Ukraine. They want to ignore it, so Putin keeps on.
Crimea is no longer mentioned. MH17 is barely in the news. And EU wants to move on, have nice dialogs with Putin?! Why would he stop?

And I guess I know one of the reasons you cannot hear voices of post soviet countries, if it’s not Russia, and if it’s not Putin. That’s something like imperialistic complex - you don’t think these countries are important - what is important for you is US-Russia conflict. And you blame yourself, US government.
Other, smaller countries are so insignificant, they just cannot have their own interests, their own pain, and their own aspirations. That all should be games and manipulations of the greats. #facepalm

Mikheil Saakashvili have been written new article which expresses point of view of the people of post soviet countries like Ukraine, Georgia and Armenia. The voice most of you have no desire to hear.
How could the West not have been prepared by now for a proper response? We’ve seen this game before. Putin’s play has always been to raise the stakes, hoping that the West will blink every time tension increases.
…
At the same time, European leaders still refuse to use the word “invasion” – even though tanks and armored convoys have rolled across the border and more than half of the combat-ready troops on the ground in Ukraine, based on multiple credible accounts, are regular Russian soldiers.
…
Once the conflict is thus “frozen,” Putin can continue to destabilize the rest of Ukraine, infiltrating separatist forces from the controlled territory, turning off energy supplies, and strangling the fragile economy. It’s the same playbook he has used in Georgia and Moldova.

This summer, accounts of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender asylum seekers fleeing Russia’s repressive law on “homosexual propaganda” peppered reports in the English-language media. Meanwhile, a different former Soviet country, Georgia, settled into a period of transition that, rights activists hope, will eliminate LGBT discrimination.

“Russia is further constraining access to the internet and freedom of speech, with new laws regarding public use of WiFi. Nikolai Nikiforov, the Russian Communications Minister, tweeted that “Identification of users (via bank cards, cell phone numbers, etc.) with access to public Wifi is a worldwide practice.” This comes on top of their actions recently to block websites of political opponents to Russian president Vladimir Putin, require registration of prominent bloggers, and more.

Imperial Mindsets Survive Empires
What is the responsibility of historians and social scientists in the resurgence of imperial solutions to evaluate the present based on the past through critical lenses? Could things have been different in Russia and Turkey had historians and other social scientists been more critical assessors of imperial history, especially when educating the new generations in schools?

Putin’s motivations are similar to those of prewar Germany: He wants to rectify what he sees as unjust treatment and humiliation by Western powers after the Cold War. He is trying to reconquer lost lands and grab natural resources. Little has been said about the offshore oil resources in Abkhazia that the Russian state monopoly Rosneft confiscated in 2009. U.S. companies have invested considerably in shale gas fields off Crimea. But Ukraine’s emergence as self-sufficient in energy, and even a major gas exporter to Europe, would be Putin’s ultimate nightmare.

A man of Shahumyan who was 12 during those events told how the Russian soldiers shot the last people leaving the village in a Willis car. The child fell of the car with the others but did not die and understood that he should keep quiet. He lay quiet under the car and listened how the Russian soldiers shot the people, then climbed the cherry trees and ate cherries. Hranush Kharatyan says the man who was 12 then told her this picture remained in his memory.

A Russian destabilization campaign is under way in eastern Ukraine, threatening a military invasion as in the Crimea.
Russia claims that a similar US-led destabilization campaign helped kick out President Yanukovich. That might well be true.
There is a gray area between a destabilization campaign and aiding a real popular uprising: the subtler the campaign, the more it shades into rallying the public, and the more it is the public that really has control, which means the campaign is not so bad. The “protests” in Eastern Ukraine smell very fishy to me.
The occupiers of a building in Kharkiv were removed by Ukrainian thugs. I won’t criticize that if it was not done in a brutal way. However, calling them “terrorists” is an example of a very dangerous practice. Occupying a building is not terrorism.
Protesters in the US have been accused of “terrorism” too:. And don’t forget the Greenpeace protesters accused of “piracy” in Russia.

It makes me pretty sad when I see Western liberals/leftists defend post-Soviet authoritarian leaders. I mean come on, you are defending people with golden toilet seats and Swiss bank accounts, people who plunder their own countries to buy yachts and football clubs in London, people who send their kids to the most expensive Western colleges and buy American passports for them. Even those Western leftists who idealized Stalin the 1930s made more sense: Stalin was a mass murderer, but at least he was trying to build a socialist economy, rather than trying to steal enough money to buy a mansion in Miami, FLA.

March 5, 2014 10:36 PM EST — (TRN) — U.S. Department of Defense satellite imagery has detected the arrival of more than thirty (30) Russian nuclear bombers to the airfield adjacent to Russia’s Borisoglebsk national level nuclear weapons storage facility (Voronezh-45) and has observed numerous transfers from the storage facility to the aircraft, which are now standing-by along the two runways at the airport.
According to sources from the National Reconnaissance Office, yesterday there were only two Bomber aircraft at the airport to the east of the storage facility. This is typical for this facility and those aircraft can even be seen on old images used by Google Earth, HERE.
Early on March 5, U.S. satellites captured an image showing many bomber aircraft had arrived at the base. Later on March 5, a U.S. stealth surveillance drone, flown over the Russian base, showed more than thirty (30) such nuclear bomber aircraft had arrived at the airfield. Numerous transfers were observed by U.S. satellites, between the nuclear storage facility and the newly arrived aircraft. Those aircraft remain on the runway at the local airport at this hour, several with what appear to be Auxiliary Power Units (APU’s) attached, indicating the aircraft are on ‘stand-by” for immediate deployment. Clearly, Ukraine poses no threat whatsoever to Russia, which begs the question: What is Russia preparing for? They certainly are not going to bomb Ukraine with 30 nuclear bombs, so what other targets do they have in mind; western Europe?
Just days ago, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov made clear to the west that Russia would retaliate if the west imposes sanctions upon Russia, and in a cryptic message, Lavrov stated that such retaliation “would be asymmetric.” The definition of “asymmetric” is: having parts that fail to correspond to one another in shape, size, or arrangement; lacking symmetry. Launching multiple nuclear attacks against multiple countries in western Europe would certainly be asymmetic.

Россия в петле… времени
Еще о Киеве. То, что там происходит, это — “бархатное” повторение событий в Венгрии 57 лет назад, в октябре 1956 года. Тогда, в ответ на расстрел чекистами мирной демонстрации, выступающей против сворачивания венгерского аналога “оттепели”, Будапешт восстал, и повстанцами была создана Национальная гвардия. Был сброшен и разбит гигантский памятник Сталину. Повстанцы заняли почти весь Будапешт. Потом — потом у власти оказались радикальные реформаторы, распустившие колхозы, а Венгрия объявила нейтралитет и вышла из Варшавского договора. И через две недели восстание раздавили советские танки. Естественно, советским читателям газет и радиослушателям сообщалось о “провалившейся попытке фашистского мятежа”.

Лжет, когда в духе “всемирной отзывчивости русского человека” заламывает руки в фальшивом украино-страдательстве: обманывают коварные латиняне младшего братишку-несмышленыша, дауна, неспособного прочесть 900 страниц соглашения.
Подлинное отношение пациента к братишке (или сестренке) вырвалось только в замечательном откровении нашего замечательного левого интеллектуала, филолога, журналиста, политика, бизнесмена, актера, музыканта,писателя Земли Русской Захара Прилепина: “Как было бы приятно, если б Украина вернулась через год, или там через три, сырая, босая, обескураженная, с застуженными придатками, осатаневшая от случившегося с ней”.
Умри, Захар, лучше не скажешь. Кто еще добровольно предъявит urbi et orbi такой убийственный медицинский анализ душевных фекалий всемирно отзывчивого Русского Пациента!
Лжет, как Путин в Триесте, сокрушаясь, что дешевые европейские товары, прокатившись огненным валом по покоренной Украине, хлынут на просторы беззащитной России. Как будто нет в его руках такого стандартного таможенного механизма, как контроль за движением чувствительных для российского рынка товаров путем определения страны происхождения и введения пошлин на них на уровне ВТО.
