Today is the official Prosecutor's Office Day in the Russian Federation, and the most important words on the occasion were spoken by Vladimir Putin, who told us: "today the prosecutor's office embodies the justice of the state."
That's exactly right. The thieves and gangsters sitting in the leadership of the Russian prosecutor's office, left in their posts despite the ACF investigation that fully exposed them—they are indeed the embodiment of the state's justice.
There is exactly as much justice in the Russian state as there is honesty and respect for the law in Prosecutor General Chaika and his family. Just as much as there is mercy in Tsapok and Tsepovyaz—business partners of the Prosecutor General's Office leadership.
So Putin is absolutely right.
I know that the honest employees still left in the system are demoralized by the Chaika affair and do not want to be associated with him—I receive many letters about this—and for them, the best gift on Prosecutor's Office Day would have been Chaika's voluntary resignation, at the very least. In that case, people could use the phrase so many love—"the honor of the uniform"—without provoking crooked smirks all around.
Unfortunately, there has been no resignation so far, and no investigation either. Quite the opposite: Chaika, who had been lying low since the day the investigation was published, gave an interview whose pomposity is matched only by the brazen thievery of his family.
He says he won't loosen his grip—which, one assumes, means continuing corporate raids, obtaining state contracts without competitive bidding, and maintaining the usual pattern of behavior by members of his family.
And then there's the "adequate response." Go ahead—we're waiting. On the Prosecutor General's Office website, ACF is already listed in the inspection registry.
We're used to it. Today, the Presnensky District Court rejected our lawsuit against Chaika for the third time, each time on a different ground. There have already been about a dozen refusals in total; I'll write about this in more detail.
In any case, on behalf of ACF, I want to inform Prosecutor General Yury Ya. Chaika, his children, and all the Lopatins, Tsapoks, Korzhineks, and Tsepovyazes who are part of his organized criminal group, that we also do not plan to "loosen our grip."
And we urge all of you, together with us, not to loosen your grip and not to let the Kremlin's main strategy for resolving every crisis succeed: in a month, everyone will have forgotten everything.
