Stanislav Ruzanov is a member of the political council of Trudovaja Rossija party (Labour Russia)




It’s growing the discontent for the de-politicization of the protest, which initially was positively seen as a way to catalyze all the different opposition political organizations. Moreover we can see the unpleasant for you monopolization of the organization in the demonstrations by the liberal leaders. How do you comment this situation?

The main problem is not the de-politicization, but how it’s going to be used by that liberal leaders who in decembre 10th took the control of the protest. People like Kasjanov and Nemcov, who are still part of this corrupted political system and are now exploiting the people’s anger to come back to have a place in the high politics. These persons don’t want actually fight against Putin, Kasjanov was premier while Putin was the President. On the other hand, Putin is using them to exclude the REAL opposition, i.e. the left parties and Drugaja Rossija (The Other Russia).
We could see this exclusion on December 10th, when these persons who call themselves “democratic”, forbid our representatives to speak on the stage during the demonstration.
Moreover, is suspicious the agreement between Nemcov and the city authorities about the authorization for the demonstration: normally it takes 15 days to make all documents, but he just had a conversation with the major and in some hours the demonstration was changed from Revolution Square (admitted only 300 participants, few space) to Bolotnaja Square (no limit for participants, huge place).
However, we have to go to demonstration, like all normal people, because the protest is right and has to be done, but we have to keep the eyes opened against these strange games. The left political organizations like Trudovaja Rossija are the only ones who will fight against this ill system. Our problem is that is difficult for us to make propaganda and find new supporters: people associates the left with the KPRF, which can actively participate in the political life of the nation and take some advantages, but which is not a dangerous party for those who have the power.
