Dear citizens, please leave the square.

0:33

Let me make an announcement, Comrade Major.

0:35

They're starting to clear the area.

0:36

Let me make an announcement and ask everyone to leave.

0:38

Would you like that?

0:39

please

0:39

just give me this thing here.

0:41

Let me hold it. It'll be easier for you that way

0:43

more convenient.

0:47

Friends,

0:49

all of a sudden

0:52

at 2:30 in the morning they decided

0:55

to bring in a street-cleaning truck and soak everything here.

0:58

Okay, no problem. The main thing is not

0:59

to give in to provocations. So, we take

1:02

all our stuff, step aside, the truck

1:04

sprays, then we come back. If they're hosing down

1:06

this place, it's not the last square in

1:09

Moscow; we'll move somewhere else.

1:11

Right?

1:12

yes!

1:13

Got it. Thank you.

1:16

We've agreed with him, he can drive through

1:18

like this.

1:20

Dude, step back,

1:23

because of you, the OMON riot police are going to start hauling people off, fuck,

1:25

because of you there's going to be a fight. Why the fuck do we need that,

1:27

for fuck's sake, this is Russia. Easy, easy, easy.

1:29

Go on then, hit me.

1:32

Dear citizens, you are obstructing the passage

1:35

of the street-cleaning truck.

1:37

Please be so kind as to clear

1:39

the square.

1:40

Dear citizens, you are obstructing

1:43

the passage of the street-cleaning truck. Please,

1:46

clear the square.

1:49

Look, a provocateur hit Udaltsov.

1:55

Leave me alone with your damn radio.

1:58

For fuck's sake,

2:00

what happened?

2:05

What, did they hit Udaltsov over there or

2:06

what? Fuck, you see, they're doing it on purpose,

2:08

provoking things on purpose so they can bring

2:09

the OMON riot police in here.

2:13

Seryoga, what was that?

2:15

A man ran up, hit my phone,

2:17

hit me.

2:18

Give it to me, give it to me now. I'll ask that guy for the megaphone.

2:21

Let me through.

2:23

Let me through.

2:24

Why are you touching my camera?

2:28

There was a live broadcast.

2:29

You bastard.

2:31

Where can I see the photos?

2:31

An unknown man,

2:34

as he was passing by, suddenly turned around and struck

2:36

me very hard in the face. I lost

2:38

my balance, you can see, as I was falling. I landed on

2:40

my hand like this.

2:41

There's blood on his ear there.

2:42

Yes. See, he drew blood; you can see what's

2:43

happening. They caught this person,

2:45

and now they've taken him away. We tried to find out

2:47

who he was, but they took him off in an unknown

2:49

direction.

2:59

There he is, with the loudhailer.

3:03

Could you hold this for a second while I climb over?

3:08

Don't run anywhere, don't chant

3:10

anything. Let's move carefully.

3:17

What was that?

3:17

To the right there's only one boulevard. Beyond that

3:20

is the river.

3:21

Yeah, we'd better go left. Lyokha, to the right—

3:24

somewhere over there to the right

3:25

and we'll come out toward Smolenka (the Smolenskaya area), right

3:29

Lyonya, find Vera. She lives here. She knows the way.

3:32

Look, Seryoga, I know, I can see the route.

3:34

Here, look, this is where we're going,

3:36

Seryoga, look, look. So right now we're

3:38

going like this,

3:40

then we turn here and go like this,

3:41

and come out onto Red Square via Varvarka Street.

3:44

I heard that Alexei Navalny

3:45

advised people in the regions to do

3:48

the same thing—that is, just walk around

3:51

the streets and squares of your cities.

3:55

Lyokha, people are writing—it's funny—they're writing: "Alexei, you've invented

3:58

a wandering Maidan (reference to Ukraine's protest movement), just don't lead them around for 40

4:00

years"

4:05

I liked 'wandering Maidan.'
