Russian Liberal Opposition

FYI, I'm not a gay & hadn't visited W. Europe since 1996.

Voting on the monuments in Lubyanka as a special operation of the authorities to distract attention, the decision of Amnesty, the further fate of Navalny and the opposition's strategy in 2021, taking into account the changing political situation. Interview with politician Dmitry Gudkov.

"A stranger of conscience" Navalny went to the stage. Election 2021 - dress rehearsal for Putin's re-election

It does not matter to any of us that Navalnys wife is German, but it is very strange for such a Xenophobic nationalist to have a foreign wife... it is a bit like finding out the head of the KKK in the US has a black wife...

The sexuality of members will not be a subject of speculation... cease and desist please...

I agree it is not a crime.  But why are they hiding it?  If people knew about this, then it would a total non-story.   There are
many such marriages in Russia and they are not considered "bad" or something.   But maybe his wife has more links to
western anti-Russian forces than just some random Russian citizen.

Everything about Nahalny is a sham.

They kept it a secret because she should become the new "opposition leader" after her poor, innocent ( ) husband has been put behind bars. Now they can flush this plan down the drain.

If she is a dual citizen now, she isn't foreign. Navalny isn't Xenophobic: I heard what he was saying, it was about illegal migrants overcrowding in Moscow's basements & condemned buildings.
Six years without Boris Nemtsov

"The murder of Nemtsov was a fork in the road."

"Murders have become the norm"

"Power is shifting into other hands": what should the elite expect from Putin's message to the Federal Assembly?

Tough conditions and strict regime". What is known about the colony to which Navalny was transported

Why would a nationalist and patriot want foreign citizenship?

Sounds dodgy.

Very strange for Navalny's wife to have been a dual citizen before it was even fully legal.

This is why Russia should legalize expatriation. Navalny's wife can stay in Germany and never come back. There should
be consequences for sedition. Not for opinion, but for willful action to facilitate regime change on behalf of and with the
financing of foreign elements of any sort.

BTW, the west yaps a lot about freedom of though and expression, but still sends "enemy aliens" (who are full citizens)
into concentration camps when its paranoia gets high enough. No Ukrainian Canadian ever engaged in sedition against
Canada. Neither did Japanese-Canadians and Japanese-Americans.

IMO it's fake news- she would know that her German citizenship will become known & discredit them both. Her son is going to school there & she doesn't need it- permanent residence should be enough.
A clip I posted last time said that some1 spotted mistakes on that ID & her picture was lifted from a magazine.

President Nemtsov. And if Boris Nemtsov became Yeltsin's successor

The resident troll-tard Tsavo Feline is still spewing his inane drivel.

Nahalny is being dumped by his handlers since he has become a toxic loser with no chance of any traction in Russia and even
abroad where his racist nazionalist posturing is being discovered. Posturing he never renounced.

Recall that Nahalny was trotting out Yeltsin's regime as squeaky clean. That must be why Yeltsin's foreign minister Kozyrev is
living in expensive Miami real estate for 20 years. The troll-tard tries to spread the drivel about Putin's palace, but could
care less about the obvious corruption of some Russian foreign minister without the salary to even afford a single room of
his current residence living it up abroad. The troll-tard insults the intelligence of the readers of this forum with BS
unproven claims against Putin, but Russian crooks who are financed by the west and currently reside there are supposed
to be the zenith of propriety.

Troll-tard Tasvo Feline has never made a single post about the crooks in Yeltsin's regime on this forum. Instead he pimps
Nahalny's insane claims about the Yeltsin golden years. So the troll-tard is a crook advocate and de facto apologist.
Keep venting on this forum, loser. The only "people" caring enough to listen to your BS are the fictional viewer hits on
Nahalny's YouTube videos.

Keep venting on this forum, loser.

I will, thx for ur permission, & stop calling me names & rant when I don't share ur opinions!
Perhaps compared to present Putin rule, Yeltsin's was golden, but I don't dwell on the events & people under Yeltsin, & don't care what Navalny thinks, sais or knows of them- it's as relevant as the last year's snow.

Perhaps compared to present Putin rule, Yeltsin's was golden,

Only for thieves and criminals stealing from Russia.... which you claim Putin is engaged it... which makes your arguments and position seem rather strange...

It is almost like you are being like the US media and US government and projecting all your evil thoughts and intentions and blaming Russia and Putin for them, but without any evidence to support your accusations.

I'll put this into context, something Tsavo the liar can't:

Russia faced during Yeltsin years:
- depreciation of ruble upwards to 25,000 rub per usd.
- deficit reaching upwards to 100%
- jobless rates over 15%
- poverty rate double than what it is now (48M)
- war within Russian republic of Chechnya
- early onsets of starvation in 1993.
- mass migration that hasn't been seen since 1917. If not far worst.
- degradation of all institutions and manufacturing facilities. What was once manufactured, gone, only to re-appear now.

What has Putin done?
- reduced poverty by half
- created more jobs than Yeltsin ever did.
- increased average life expectancy and increased healthy lifestyle and have had helped reduce alcohol consumption considerably.
- more social care than Yeltsin years.
- reduced debt to which stands at 17%~
- increased reserve funds
- jailed majority of the corrupt oligarchs (unfortunately let Browder and Khdorkovsky go).
- remodeled the military and advanced production and research of military goods.
- diversified the economy
- increased average wealth
- brought back manufacturing once lost.
- helped create foundation (techno and industrial parks) to help spur new industries and technologies.
- made Russia second in the world for migration due to better quality of life.
- brought back territory that was illegally stripped from them (Crimea).

Lots more to be said.

Tsavo is too stupid to understand any of this though.

1) The life expectancy of males fell to 58 years under Yeltsin.   It has grown to 72 years under Putin.
   And no, the drop in life expectancy was not some lagged effect from before 1990.   If that was true
   the it would have increased under Yeltsin's golden rule where gold from the people was robbed to make
   maggots like Khodorkovsky and Berezovsky rich.

2) The Russian population without migration from former Soviet republics shrank by 8 million people under
   Yeltsin.   That includes the murder of elderly for their apartments.   You know, those "drab" Soviet
   apartments that nobody wanted before 1990 but became prime real estate after the advent of the
   glorious capitalism.

3) Russia's GDP fell by over 50%.   The unemployment rate was actually higher than 15%.   Wage arrears
   became common and chronic.  People were paid things like bras and other barter.   You could see hordes
   of people on the streets of Russian cities trying to sell whatever few possessions they had to feed themselves.
   This is why you can find all sorts of medals and badges of veterans in the hands of westerners today.

   https://www.jstor.org/stable/4407122?seq=1

4) The poverty rate was higher than 43% in 1999.   That was the direct legacy of Yeltsin and not Putin's
   insta-poverty.   The only reason that tens of millions of Russians were not dying from cold on the streets
   was because they owned their own apartments due to the legacy of the USSR.  

An excellent source of information about the "golden years" of Yeltsin and their legacy can be found in the
Exile a magazine by American expats that detailed the rot in Russia.   But they pushed the limit and got
kicked out.

The above site is derelict and it is hard to find the original articles if they are still archived at all.

1) We had gangland shootouts in Moscow in the streets.

2) Gangs ran massive prostitution rings.   One case involves young women and girls being murdered in large numbers
   for resisting these pimps.  

But if you read trash like The Guardian you get the BS that all of this showed up right after Putin took office.  
Exactly the drivel spewed by Nahalny.   Nahalny is a sock puppet with NATzO's hand up his ass.   But he has
been a total failure at conning the Russian public so his wielders are going to look for someone else while they
cry phony tears of concern about his "mistreatment".

The life expectancy of males fell to 58 years under Yeltsin.   It has grown to 72 years under Putin.

last I heard it's under 67 years.  According to the latest WHO data published in 2018 life expectancy in Russia is: Male 66.4,... With retirement age raised, most of them will never get to use their pensions.
Despite all his alleged & real achievements, Putin overstayed, as there r more oligarchs now than ever before. Now most people want both sausages & democracy, not the police state Russia is becoming.

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/former-french-president-nicolas-sarkozy-sentenced-prison-humiliating-corruption

A Paris court has found former French President Nicolas Sarkozy guilty of corruption - which is only the second time in modern history that a French head of state has gone down on such a charge - for which he's been issued a sentence of three years in prison, two of which have been suspended.

The case centered on conversations between Azibert and Herzog, which were taped by investigators looking into claims that Sarkozy accepted illicit payments from the L'Oreal heiress Liliane Bettencourt for his 2007 presidential campaign.

The phone line they tapped was a secret number set up in a fictional name, Paul Bismuth, through which Sarkozy communicated with his lawyer.

Note the details. It would be very easy for NATzO special services to track similar activity by Putin. Using lamer bloggers to spread
BS about "Putin's billions" and then circle jerking this non-information via the fake stream media is rather pathetic. All of Putin's "billions"
and "corruption" would expose him to intelligence operations that catch at least some of his activities.

The irony is that Putin must stay in power for as long as possible to avoid the same or worse fate. Do not compare Lukashenka and Putin - each is bad in its own way. Autocracy Problems

Loyalty or money? Why Putin is covered by his "friends"

How effective are the new US and EU sanctions over Navalny's persecution?

MONUMENT OF CORRUPTION. PUTIN RAISED PENSION

Russia's silly position: how the Kremlin forced itself to abandon the West and regretted it

Navalny has now been transferred to serve his 2 year-8 month prison sentence at the special measures prison known as IK-2 Pokrov.

The special measures of this unit of the Russian Federal Penitentiary Service, near Yaroslavl – about 100 kilometres by road, two and a half hours driving east of Moscow – include a regimen of 24-hour supervision; constant make-work activity from 6 in the morning to 10 at night; 15 minutes’ time for letter writing; one hour free time per day. The regimen has been designed for isolation of Islamic terrorists. Some of the 400 inmates are not allowed to be spoken to by the others. Visits from lawyers and family require advance application and authorisation, the processing of which usually takes four to eight weeks.

The reputation of IK-2 Prokrov is so fearsome among Russian convicts that those who can try bribing their way to other places.

Intellectual work is harder than physical work. He's got the will power to handle it.
Someone wrote: "Any truth crates scandal". So far, Putin showed that he can't be above killing, & when that failed, persecuting the messenger.
Recently he asked the West: "do u think we r idiots?"
Does he think the Russian people r idiots? Certainly many, if not most, r not more stupid than he is.

I do intellectual work for a living and I can personally guarantee that physical work is harder

what kind of work? from ur post, it sounds like ur intellect either doesn't have to work at all or the work itself could do w/o it. When some students told Einstein that they have big problems with math, he replied: "my math problems r a lot bigger than urs."

It's not willpower that matters it's physical power and given that his physical stature resembles a crack whore..

if he survived poisoning, he's got the physical power. I suspect that they won't force him to work hard lest he gets sick & dies. Now he is more valuable alive, but in prison.

..he was trying to avoid prison so desperately

if he did, he wouldn't have come back to Russia. He saw what happened to other who posed a threat to Putin's rule.

The United States & EU imposed sanctions against the head of the FSB and the Prosecutor General of Russia - list

By not answering my questions, u only confirm what I suspected all along.

Are you illiterate, retarded or do you just have cerebral palsy?

What answer r u expecting from me if u really think that? By asking such a question, u just eliminated any doubts in my mind regarding ur own intellectual capabilities.
DON'T BOTHER TO REPLY- I GOT NO TIME TO WASTE ON U.

Intellectual work is only hard if you are out of your depth.

Physical labour is something else, but even that can range from pushing a trolley around to breaking rocks...

if he survived poisoning, he's got the physical power.

His faking of a poisoning took no physical power at all... he is diabetic.... all he needed was alcohol and a bit of cocaine to get into a coma and pretend.

I suspect that they won't force him to work hard lest he gets sick & dies. Now he is more valuable alive, but in prison.

I suspect they gave him a suspended sentence and home detention because they were being lenient on him... and he threw that back in their faces so of course the new punishment is going to be something he remembers the next time he decides to ignore the courts system... this has nothing to do with Putin... it is how the law works most places... except the US where they want new prison inmates because they are free labour so home detention is something most can only dream of.

if he did, he wouldn't have come back to Russia

He probably thought he would never get to court... his supporters would surround him at the airport and walk home with him surrounding and protecting him in his car... the western agents he works with probably told him they had already paid the bribes for supporters and officials so he wont be touched... oh to see his face when that house of cards fell down...

The western agents probably had snipers at the airport he was landing at to kill him and get max value.... see.... putin just saved his life... hey it is fun to make shit up...

That's right, Nahalny's arrogance tripped him up. He was basically spewing abuse at the judge during his hearing for breaking parole.
That sort of thing gets you distinct punishment all on its own in the west. Contempt of court is not a slap on the wrist crime
in the self-anointed guiding lights of humanity called NATzO.

The Russian legal system failed to do its job by the absurd leniency it showed to Nahalny, Pussy Riot, and assorted other clowns.
Again, being an ass does not go unpunished in the "civilized" world. See how far you get next time you get pulled over by a cop
for speeding and through any attitude at him/her. It does not matter if you were innocent (in your own mind or in reality), instigating
the sort of BS that Nahalny and his pals do routinely seems to be only tolerated in Russia.

Repeated contempt behaviour gets you escalating punishment. Nahalny should be doing several years just for his serial contempt
of court and street blocking law breaking. So the Russian legal system is still treating this criminal with excessive amount of
leniency. He was sent to jail over a criminal case and not his "public activity".

Silly excuse after poisoning failed. Befeore that, he called his FSB killers & 1 confirmed their fiasco. Now the head doctor of the hospital Omsk that treated him & falsified Navalny's diagnosis is dead. He isn't diabetic, & was in an induced coma so he could be treated & detoxified.

He planned to have huge protests for his release, & they did occur. Now every1 sees that the regime can only use prisons to deal with the opposition- it's a national security state under siege, i.e., dictatorship similar to GKCHP after Gorbachev was briefly ousted.

keep on doing it, but ur arguments & guesses don't hold water.
