Vladimir Putin's annual press conference with the eyes of a communist
12/17/2020
About prices, bad boyars, lockdown and Navalny
On Thursday, December 17, another large press conference of Vladimir Putin took place : the President of the country spoke to citizens and journalists via video link. What the head of state spoke about and what turned out to be important, in the material of the ROT FRONT.

At the press conference, which lasted about five hours, issues of economics, politics and social support were discussed. As expected, there was an answer to the question about the poisoning of the right-wing politician Alexei Navalny , who is being treated in Berlin.
The President said that he became the target of an international information campaign similar to those practiced in the West during the "events in the Caucasus", "the fight against international terrorism." And this may well be the case. The totality of information attacks on the president's close associates indicates a campaign that has a customer.
Putin spoke modestly about the investigation into Navalny, allegedly poisoned by the Russian special services with a Novichok group's warhead: "Well, if we wanted to, we would have done it to the end . "
The president said that Navalny enjoys the support of the American intelligence services. In this regard, according to Putin, it is absolutely correct to "look after him."
“Well, this does not mean at all that you need to poison him. Who needs it? " - the head of state grinned.
The trick "to attack the first persons" can be used in order to stand on a par with the enemy, to become "a person of the same caliber," Putin explained.

Unfortunately, the issue of Navalny's poisoning by the Russian special services on Putin's personal order is a matter of faith, there is no evidence and is not expected, and the political crisis in the country is beneficial to many. There can be many beneficiaries of the global discussion of the poisoning of the liberal opposition. However, we realize that not a single left-wing activist who has suffered at the hands of the state machine has received so much attention from the public, and that says something. The violation of human rights in capitalist countries is significant as long as a person presents a liberal agenda. In Colombia alone , leftists are killed every day . These massacres are still of no interest to the global information agenda. The killer of environmental activist Berta Caceres, which until 2016 protected the forests and rivers of Colombia from greedy multinationals, was never punished. Sometimes similar events shake Russia too. The case of Alexander Sokolov, a member of the ROT FRONT, who was repressed for the investigation of theft at the Vostochny cosmodrome (formally - for the creation of an organization banned in the Russian Federation), is still heard.
The rest of the questions that were raised to the president at the press conference were nominal. There was a PR question about the 66-year-old doctor of the village of Alakurtti, which allowed the Governor of the Murmansk region, Andrey Chibis, to remind that there are two ambulances for 3 thousand people of the village, with a standard of one car for 10 thousand.
Putin continued the tactics of appeasing the population during the pandemic. He explained to business that a lockdown in Russia is not planned, but several governors had previously reported such a possibility. For example, on December 7, the governor of St. Petersburg, Alexander Beglov, announced that the city was on the verge of a complete lockdown. Putin calmed the population by means of the usual abuse at the boyars who allowed the rise in food prices, represented by the Minister of Economic Development and Trade Maxim Reshetnikov.

"Untimely reaction from the relevant government agencies," Putin said.
The head of state also spoke about the additional indexation of pensions, relations with the West, the Minsk agreements, the US elections and mass vaccinations.
During the press conference, we found out that the 1993 Constitution, popularly called the Constitution "on blood", is considered by the President to be an assistant in restoring civil peace.
“Everything is good on time, in due time. In 1993, it [the Constitution, - ROT FRONT] was adopted in difficult conditions, in the conditions of hostilities in Moscow, here people died, tanks fired at the parliament. She helped create civil peace and a base for political development. But now we have a different situation. And in this regard, we had to make changes, ”Putin said.
The president did not say anything new, the PR stunts invented by the Administration seemed ineffective and easily disclosed, the answers to the main complaints about Navalny and Putin's relatives were insufficient and uninformative. As a result of the press conference - the Kremlin is losing its grip. He allocates billions and trillions of rubles to support the president's media image, but this money is used by unreliable people and ineffective propagandists. However - and this is important - we are better off.

The legal cretinism of the sapper Putin or the renegade of the lieutenant colonel of the KGB?
07.07.2020
Explaining in a working way
Being in a certain euphoria from the percent squeezed out during the voting for the amendments to the constitution, experiencing, in the words of press secretary Dmitry Peskov , the triumph of the de facto referendum on confidence, Russian President Vladimir Putin said in an interview with the Russia-1 TV channel on July 5, that the amendments to the Constitution of the Russian Federation, adopted at the referendum on July 1, will make it possible to avoid the mistakes of the Soviet period of Russian history and to consolidate the inviolability of Russia's borders.
Speaking about what mistakes in the state structure he would like to avoid, Putin recalled that after the 1917 revolution in Russia there was a discussion about ways to restore statehood, and in the 1922 union treaty “the Leninist thesis about the right of the union republics to secede from the united state " .
“Lenin has been running around with this idea since 1908-1909. All this proceeded from the idea of the nation's right to self-determination and then transformed into state building in such a way that when creating a single state, the Soviet Union, in fact, it was a question of restoring historical Russia within its former borders - the newly created union republics had the right to exit out of it, ”the president said.
He also recalled that Joseph Stalin adhered to a different point of view - he advocated the autonomy of national associations and their incorporation into the RSFSR on the basis of autonomy rights.
“No secession from the Soviet Union was foreseen in the future. But in the end, Lenin's idea was implemented, and the right to secede from the Soviet Union was fixed in the Union Treaty of 1922, but no other was said, the procedure for secession from the Union was not spelled out, "Putin explained, noting that these provisions" began to wander from the Constitution to the Constitution of the Soviet period ”.
It was this provision on the right to withdraw, according to Putin, that contributed to the destruction of the USSR in 1991. At the same time, Putin expressed a number of his own, relatively new considerations about the historical political practice of the Soviet government and the Bolshevik party.
With a request to comment on these statements, our correspondent Dmitry Volgin is talking with Viktor Tyulkin, First Secretary of the ROT FRONT Central Committee.
Victor Tyulkin
Interview with the First Secretary of the Central Committee of the ROT FRONT Viktor Tyulkin
Corr .: Viktor Arkadyevich, Putin is once again returning to the topic of a time bomb, allegedly laid by Lenin's national policy under the Soviet Union and ultimately blowing up the USSR. You and other politicians, scientists and specialists have already answered this Putin's thesis and stressed the absolute unscientific nature of this approach. Why is the president stepping on the same rake again and again?
VT: Because in this case, Putin acts as a propagandist and is guided by the laws of propaganda developed by Mr. Goebbels. Propaganda must be massive and unambiguous. A lie, repeated thousands of times by many media, becomes the conviction of the masses. Simply put, Putin is engaged in stupefying society, especially young people. The older generation and people who think about such primitive propaganda are unlikely to fall for it, but those who grew up in the post-Soviet period and have a knowledge of history at the level of dates and events according to the USE requirements, perceive his calculations as quite serious and reasonable. And with each repetition there are more and more of them. So we will have to reveal more than once all the fallacy and falsity of this version.
Corr .: Well, if it is necessary, we will repeat and emphasize especially important things.
VT: Come on. Putin has once again shown, I would say, legal cretinism. Like, it would be necessary to write in a different way and everything would be different. This, of course, is naive nonsense. The destruction of empires and states does not come from writing into laws, but from the action of internal and external forces in this state. Does Putin know about this? I think he undoubtedly knows, but in order to refine the minds and to keep silent about the main thing, he consistently pursues his propaganda line about a mine, or, as he once said, even about an atomic bomb, under the USSR. He portrays himself as a kind of sapper, who neutralizes a mine from the past, and strengthens the state for the future.

Corr .: And what is the main thing, which Putin is silent about?
VT: The main thing is that any state is an institution of class domination. The Soviet Union was built as a state of workers. The Great October Socialist Revolution established Soviet power in the country as an organizational form of the dictatorship of the proletariat. The very next day after the revolutionary coup and the overthrow of the Provisional Government at the Second Congress of Soviets of Workers', Peasants' and Soldiers' Deputies, the rule of the working people was proclaimed, i.e. dictatorship of the proletariat. The power of the working people was the foundation, the foundation on which all structures were erected and great peaks were conquered.
The main national-territorial structure of the USSR, we note, absolutely equally understood by Lenin and Stalin, was Soviet power, that is, the organizational form of the implementation of the dictatorship of the proletariat. Stalin said this in his speech at the II All-Union Congress of Soviets on the death of V.I. Lenin stressed: “The dictatorship of the proletariat was created in our country on the basis of an alliance of workers and peasants. This is the first and fundamental basis of the Republic of Soviets . "
The Soviets are the most stable of all known history forms of the dictatorship of the proletariat, not only because the Soviets have existed longer and have great things behind them. Their stability and the greatest adequacy for fulfilling the function of the dictatorship of the proletariat is determined, specifically, by the fact that the Soviets rely on the objective reality that unites people of labor - their organization in the process of material production. (Bourgeois parliamentarism is also based on objective reality, but this reality is expressed by the omnipotence of money in the world of universal commodity production, the cult of capital, the spirit of profit). In the Soviets, for the first time in history, workers received the right to use their organization in the labor process to conduct business management of society and political decisions - to elect deputies in their labor collectives, as well as at any time to withdraw them, to control the bodies of state power, to ensure, thus, the subordination of the state to its interests. In 1917, the highest, truly progressive form of democracy was established - proletarian democracy - for the working people and for the working people, Soviet power.
The workers, as you know, do not need to divide places on the market for trays. They will always agree with each other. History has proved that the destruction of the Soviet Union, while the power was Soviet, and the party was communist, could not be either internal or external enemies, even such vanguards of imperialism as Hitler's fascism. And this same story has shown that after the party and the state lost their class character, the state was destroyed quickly, relatively without resistance, by heading towards the market, that is, towards capitalism. So once again we emphasize the crucial importance of the class basis of the state.
And Mr. Putin eludes this certainty in every possible way, I think for obvious reasons - he does not want to admit that today Russia is a state of the ruling class of oligarchs and exploiters, among which his friends, classmates and acquaintances are very densely represented. Simply put, this is a classic example of a corrupt structure. Like all capitalists at all times, in order to disguise this picture, the authorities rely on the allegedly existing nation-wide character of the state. This, of course, is stupidity, or rather - in power it is a deliberate lie. This is stupidity among the comrades from the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, who, following Zyuganov, declare themselves to be statists and dream of some kind of government of popular confidence under a bourgeois system. For this, the authorities are grateful to them and even give awards, for example, to Zyuganov - the Stolypin medal.
Russian oligarchs under reliable protection
Corr .: And the right to exit?
VT: The right to exit only strengthened the alliance, helping the nationalities and minorities to overcome the justified mistrust and fear from the past times of tsarist life. It's like in a human marriage, the right to dissolve it is not given for compulsory use, but in order for the family union to be created consciously and freely, which means it would be stronger and happier.
And the hopes for writing in the laws, which Putin trumps, without a political and economic basis turns out to be a beautiful phrase or an empty phrase. Remember the fate of the referendum on the preservation of the USSR in 1991.Most people unequivocally spoke in favor of preserving the Union, but the course towards the market and the contenders for the new gentlemen did not give a damn about the will of the people who had the highest power, and destroyed the country in order to rule in divided parts and even play off the peoples. with a friend, as Stalin noted, in the defense of his market and his master producers. By the way, Vladimir Putin, together with his then boss, St. Petersburg Mayor Anatoly Sobchak, undoubtedly participated in this process personally.
Corr .: Do you think that Putin understands all this and deliberately distorts history and reality? Why?
VT: I just cannot imagine that he did not know this. After all, I am a year older than Putin and studied with him in the same school # 281. I know our teachers of history and social studies, Malyshkina Vera Konstantinovna and Tamara Zinovievna Stelmakhova, and therefore I do not allow any doubts about their competence and conscientiousness. I spoke with Vera Konstantinovna shortly before her death, incl. discussed the strange transformations of both former students and former ideologists of the party, and Soviet leaders. They remembered that history is today's politics, looking into the past. So we understand the efforts of the bourgeoisie and its guarantor to present history in a favorable light. As the theory says, being determines consciousness.
Note that Putin examines the example of the republic's secession from the USSR from a purely commercial position : “The procedure for secession from the Union was not spelled out. As a result, the republic, which became part of the USSR, received in its baggage a huge amount of Russian lands, traditional Russian historical territories. The right to withdraw was spelled out in the Constitution, but the procedure was not spelled out. As a result, the republic could secede from the Union not “with what it came”, but “taking away” with it “gifts from the Russian people”.
Putin with a monarchical sweep on Russian historical territories presents the reason for the fact that it was allegedly not spelled out in the constitution and laws. But he is silent about the fact that the foundation itself was destroyed! After all, the republics were united, incl. entered and joined the state of workers. And when it became a tool for enriching fatty people, it is naive to rely on procedures.
The composition of the republics that voluntarily entered the USSR
Corr .: That is, Putin is naive?
VT: Of course not. After all, he chooses from past experience what suits him or distorts it in the way that seems right to him. Let us note how he asserts: "The Communist Party also did not fulfill the promises" The land to the peasants, factories to the workers. " At the end of the First World War, the land and factories were nationalized. In fact, the workers did not get these factories, the land did not get. ... For all these parameters, in fact, they said one thing and did another. With more or less success, they did just that, ”the head of state said.
Here Putin is silent that both the land and the factories were nationalized by the state of workers and peasants, so that everything was done and all the social achievements of the USSR were built on this basis. But he really likes the formula “they said one thing and did another”, which he uses today, and very skillfully, as exemplified by the survey on amendments. Many thousands of words have been said about the protection of animals from TV screens, and silence about the resetting of Putin's terms.
Correspondent: Putin also remembered: “Then the thesis was generally wonderful in order to attract the army to his side. "No war, no peace." This was Trotsky's idea. "And we will demobilize the army." But the army was not needed, because they themselves had disintegrated it by this moment, the front had disintegrated. The army even posed an internal political threat, a huge number of armed people who rushed back and forth without any understanding of what was happening and what needed to be done. But "No war, no peace" is a very strange thesis. This was also quickly abandoned, and with the help of a carrot and stick they began to create a workers 'and peasants' Red Army, and they succeeded so well. “… But I say that according to all these parameters, in fact, they said one thing and did another. With more or less success, but they did just that, ”said the head of state.
VT: He's lying again. However, it is understandable not to tell him that this Trotskyist trick "No war, no peace" was categorically suppressed by the party and Lenin, and the Red Army was created not with a carrot and a stick, but on the basis of the first conscious volunteers who responded to the call of the Decree "Socialist fatherland in danger ". By the way, the authorities celebrate the Day of the Defender of the Fatherland on February 23. An example of the privatization of glory and parasitism in history.
Decree "Socialist Fatherland in Danger"
Corr .: Thank you for the conversation. In conclusion, please tell me how, in your opinion, Putin as a person understands that he is telling a lie and doing injustice?
VT: I think humanly, if he does not clearly understand, then he feels and is afraid of it. That is why he never, not once, met in face-to-face debates with any opponent on the air. This is such a psychological inferiority complex, I would say, renegade syndrome. Indeed, by and large, he betrayed his father's business, betrayed the oath. He is looking for excuses, trying to create support in the form of religiosity and the cult of the ROC. Well, you can't believe us that a KGB officer sincerely believes in God.
So everything has a completely material basis. Putin defends himself, loved ones, his class in this campaign of constitutional amendments. The interests of the people are not present here. This means that the struggle of the people for their interests is the business of the people themselves.
