Spent the whole day in Novosibirsk today. It was my first time there. What a city. Tropical heat, bright nights, parrots and fish in the metro, and the people are just fantastic.
The meeting from a quadcopter:
The morning began with three people in suspiciously short shorts running out of an alleyway, throwing a couple of eggs at us, and then dashing back just as quickly. Even LifeNews (a Russian pro-Kremlin tabloid TV outlet), whose camera they were working for, didn’t manage to film them properly.
Then I held a press conference and presented our brochure on the history of Russian officials’ illicit enrichment. I’ll write about it separately—the brochure turned out great.
I answered everyone who asked questions and showed interest. Did a lot of explaining.
I had several meetings with journalists and finally headed to the main public meeting.
Interestingly, about 20 NOD activists (members of the pro-Kremlin National Liberation Movement), Cossacks, and other people in camouflage showed up at the meeting. We gave them a chance to ask questions and speak their minds, and it was fairly curious—especially when one of them said he was ready to die for Rotenberg.
Many thanks to everyone who came. It was interesting talking with you.
Special thanks to the volunteers who prepared the meeting.
