Hello from Tambov. Today is the Day of Remembrance for the Victims of Political Repression, and Tambov is one of the main places where they should be remembered. The Monument to the Tambov Peasant. These peasants—ordinary farmers who rose up in the 1920s against the food requisition squads that were taking the last bread from their families—were attacked with chemical weapons, taken hostage, and thrown into concentration camps. A terrible tragedy for the entire nation. I’m holding a meeting with voters here today—come by: 6:00 PM at the Bashnya shopping center grounds. #Tambov
