See the difference: this is

0:03

an unauthorized rally in Moscow

0:05

that took place on Sunday, with streets blocked off,

0:08

chants, and, well, a full-scale protest.

0:13

They have every right to protest; they have demands

0:16

that are, broadly speaking, just — against genocide

0:18

of Muslims. They came out, as you said, but there was no

0:22

application, no permit, none of the other

0:25

nonsense they are constantly throwing at us.

0:27

And yet Moscow’s police department says

0:31

that there were no violations of public

0:33

order, and no one was detained.

0:35

No administrative reports were filed.

0:37

What’s more, some kind of

0:40

armed men were spotted at the rally — everyone saw them

0:42

online, but the Moscow police

0:44

for some reason paid absolutely no

0:46

attention to them. So that’s all fine. But this,

0:50

on the other hand, is Elvira Dmitrieva, a former

0:53

employee of Kazan Federal

0:55

University, who became the coordinator of our

0:57

headquarters in Kazan, and on Monday she was

1:00

sentenced to 10 days in jail.

1:02

According to the case materials, Dmitrieva

1:04

posted on social media that

1:06

people could come to our headquarters and pick up leaflets

1:09

to hand out. By doing so,

1:11

Dmitrieva organized public

1:13

campaigning on the internet among

1:16

an unlimited number of people, calling on them

1:18

to take part in an unauthorized

1:19

public event, the police said.

1:22

Elvira was put in handcuffs right there in the

1:25

courthouse and taken away under escort

1:27

to serve her sentence. So tell me,

1:29

please: are everyone in Russia equal before

1:32

the law? So this is considered normal, but this

1:35

is a crime?

1:37

What more proof do you need? What other

1:40

reasons do you still need in order to

1:42

stand up against this government — people

1:45

who have seized power in our country, both

1:47

at the Kremlin level and in the regions?

1:49

It is a gathering of the most deceitful, the most

1:52

disgusting, the most thieving scoundrels.

1:55

They are hypocritical through and through, and they no longer

1:58

feel any shame. Come over to the side of good.

2:00

You understand perfectly well that with this kind of

2:03

government, this kind of approach, this kind of

2:05

obvious double standard, the country

2:08

cannot develop.

2:09

You and I have no

2:12

future as long as these people are in power.

2:16

lawlessness. Subscribe to our channel,
