really about the city who doesn't want them and they are as mayors of mosco to number of stores as from when the simple government 6 years ago he initiated the law that cut a shortage of one the simple councils and he said it was decided to be in a state the mayor of moscow who employed such a disproportionate force on the streets of the city and then many many theories circulating in the capital about who and why made the decision to use force in much larger numbers than ever before what's your version of a it was it was sort of a snuffle it wasn't person planned because. maybe july 4th until july realized that mayors of moscow just wanted to punish so-called opposition for spoiling his agenda because one of his most one of his biggest interest was to see some group presented itself until gentle like on the for the mist in the duma and

author of the few words can be enough. actually convey no hate speech in social media against her for for for for supporting the mayor's office she. left the race off as it may is decided to punish that position he didn't realize he as far as i know they didn't do any political calculations that for example we can spread the opposition but one can say that all due respect you cannot issue direct orders to. national guards by a war there are 2 figures who are to give orders to on national guard. first its head off how they call it original and the terrorist that both are it's a unit ofa nation lenda service committee and it's the head of. f.s.b. in moscow you know in general that if you had been the 2nd person is mayors of moscow so you know so i would. all of this you go through the whole of course you

can you can not you can not use such a poor result having good solutions and security comes not in kremlin i wouldn't say in kremlin because the old domestic politics departments of roman trying to stay sight of all of the of the of the whole story so i think. as far as i know mayor had some visits in ground when not to the president but the head of his administration or of course castro had asked for help and i don't know whether he asked for political help or he asked for physical force in the end we saw what we saw now you yourself wrote about how the relatively low level of political of reps russian is one of the redeeming qualities of the current absolutely system and. this is not because the people who operate dot system are particularly soft hearted i think that's because they understand you don't 3rd law very well that any action is bound to produce an equal and opposite reaction why do you think they decided to

side step this time around he didn't have public support on it there's no use as it's there if you see that the house of population just doesn't just don't like the idea of what this point down it means that you can go further it means you can not bring more troops and then more troops it means that you have to negotiate somehow what i see you know the students case what happened this could also have been a go in support of negotiation it's know when they're negotiation and sort of our own table where kremlin purdon moscow part and opposition are gathering together no but it's a symmetrical negotiations we can if you if the shed able to give case is important for you we can release the force to know if this is important they were going to release and it doesn't mean that they stopped the fence on the no one is infrastructure. they know they're playing politics now they're doing what they're supposed to what they're supposed to do like 2 months and spread intelligence or

from the only spreading i learned from those more school activists who actually don't support in a lot of what they just saw that they have their money. minister bill represented theirs and then go out to even to run. but they wouldn't run knowledge playing politics decide elections produced side chick counter productive result for the at least for the most come mayor i thing is one silver lining in this whole story it also shows that at least as far as counting the votes goes it's relatively fair otherwise all those systemic position parties like outlook and the communist would have gotten into the city assembly isn't that actually a pretty conspicuous slap on the wrist of those who advocated the use of force especially on the eve of the 20212024 that is in doubt approve an early task that if you try to employ force you will get the opposite of what you want

we i haven't heard i've never heard about any force can i respond to 24 i'm in. a regular politics with a number of fugitive might it questions like future are you not approach the governing party. should we should really state duma as done with politics or is do more for territory. how you design the. force wasn't an option actually what they realised. the technology of protest. sharing reputably and they are actually. they delayed in their action so like the smart folks what they want to do it is actual business and think that the state did numerous number but is it isn't that actually no vilely who did that because. we have to explain our viewers that why is my smarts boding we we mean his call for

his supporters to support any known crime manderson aligned to support but to kill or candidates we has the you know the airlines with the crown land that is too. high probability 0 win and north eliza fueling the violence created or is it part of a broader trend in russia of the growth of product as it's purely it's just it's purely in the light of the credit goes to keep build the device or for using the what were coal efik yeah the effect action or using it in the racial way but you can see it the same exact happening in other regions when of ali's. activities nadab friends and i think that maybe also currently it is with the growth of fashion i mean it's not she's not it's not just same thing in regional politics the part of the brands that just brands like the governor can can be elected as

a member of for sure enough the party turned to united russia then turned to communist then run as an independent i mean in regions it's not it's not about the party brands it's about the place within the federal center and local it's in moscow it was a pretty different thing because nobody in this task was to say that i can be a broker or you approach it i can build a frame i can build a device that you approach this would have a real result not in terms of electoral reno if you can do that but in terms of hurting mayor's office and the mayor of personally. for actually one of the valleys tactics and i think he's very transparent about that is to diligent demise all existing institutions both local and state institutions as far as he's he and his supporters are concerned there's absolutely nothing good about the current system it has to be destroyed and built from a blank slate given the russian historical context isn't it inevitable that such

a stance will be perceived as not just a threat to the security of the state but a threat to the whole survival of the state there are 2 and there is on the table there is considerable what we call go blue groups who say that we're supposed to organize. back to a phone call like it happened in spain which most of the other together you have position is all of the out of the witness court and so on and so it was supposed to draw a. road that. new liberals liberals do simpler. that the whole system is rigid corrupted and should be replaced. you cannot say that replacing belittle system means. to medically replace the state it brings him on the age but if you if you know what we have we have legal mechanism of changing constitution we haven't used them for 20. 6 years but

actually we have in the constitution i don't think that no one is agenda is too diligent and the elections are as old as yourself since i'm talking about dili just amazing all state institutions there's he doesn't recognise anything but i just proportional use ritual force is the same thing it works the same with deliberate because you see there's a there's a there's a gap between something which is legitimate to something which is legal listen you're such a force is legal but it's not legitimate according to how full freshens population i think. unfortunately at least claim that they're acting within the bounds of the law reach which is quite questionable my question is different i agree that the vollies extremely helpful in terms of keeping tabs on corruption and holding politicians feet to the fire but when he calls for burning the entire house down for the change of the constitutional order i think he actually does call for that it's not illegal to it's i would say is that now that i think i was very close to

leave behind bars i would say it loud and clear until we have in constitution a little window to change the institution it's not illegal to call for change the constitution i'm 100 percent sure that to the existing law enforcement management he's a major threat they see him as a major threat not just as a disruptor as an existential threat as somebody who can bring the stay down my question to use them why is he still blokey of walking free when the same system is doling out very harsh test sentences to people like populist in this i would like that for us. he has an ability to mobilize. support when he's in personal crisis so this is what you don't know if you're still selling the bill is a sow's institute and yes putting him behind the bar would bring you know on my

estimation 60 songs and on moscow streets in 34 hours consenting we have to take a very very short break but we will be back in just a few moments stay tuned. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guests of the world of politics small business i'm showbiz. i'll see that. he. he. she. has logged on the call for $600.00 call no calls he's going to this is the false

soldier you can see each of them with bullets of them some of them some of the lost ones the ones i'm not sick enough something. good video the dish. song sit on me she's on that sound a soft spot will not keep you down at this time out on top. of the need to promote. more of these to continue to pollute to you so she could pull the ripples from the way. for. the present. but if she warn you posted by you can i do the dishes at the bazemore those jeans nudist beach and you see me we need to you.

know muffin when you. can use i mean guys without infringing balls. a lot of you will see sawing and fuzzy parts about 2 kids each other both sides most called. by. each if you follow that cab at 5 days doing it's a. lady a few people who simply knew she would include in the. welcome back to worlds apart that constantine gaza nonresidents color at the carnegie moscow center consented as we already mentioned all the climbers

surrounding the moscow actions is only partially about moscow it's primarily about the upcoming elections and transit transit of power in 2024 year old dad the final dad president putin owes to the country is to free the as much as possible from putin is the system that he himself created ave or any signs of dot already happening no no. no mark recon is. proving that a liberal as it used to be for last 20 years oh oh what you see in politics that's all that's your call shifts mostly reaction on situation where you still don't see as somebody who can lead somebody who can show for the image of the future like the causing the problem but at the same time in the year one of your recent articles you sad that on the one hand putin has been using brute force to rule the

country but on the other hand he also. claimed no one fears the presidential administration anymore brute force that no one fears isn't there a contradiction of terms no of course not because ministration those are going there's a fish and a presidential sources. go much for the work of ministration can do ministration as a political broker is broken we don't see any form of court a nation with. and the government as a presidential administration. can. get all kind of all yeah which was. provided ministration and. didn't have any clue about the law it doesn't work is about equal rights activists of the government is one thing how people relate to that is another thing and in russia traditionally the presidential administration is considered the main political institution. for the

euro i haven't seen numbers i mean in russia we have the charcoal institution that's the president personally the figure the face then we have a number of proliferated images we have popular ministers like lever for example foreign minister or we have number i think like sure a percent of russians it is just don't know what presidential administration they have ok even with these sexual figure as you call it deprives them to also claim that president putin quote has lost he's led a ship now that there is a decline admittedly there is a decline in his approval ratings which some would say was to be expected given the very unpopular retirement age reform but. has lost his leadership isn't that a beat over the top for a statistician like yourself i mean you have to base it on the numbers and the

program is not in a single day. problem is that it was doing glistens life from the russian text and in the original i used the tour it's very street concept i can mimic he is not the person who's not the figure who can assure the russian society that we have a future and we're going there because the main 3 groups that see main shifts in public opinion lack of trust declining of trust all public institutions short there's your period of planning the period the standard period of planning for for example european family even us eastern european family 5610 years in the in the russian you know like a dam makes trying to compare societies to the russian society i mean given they said if you serious these eastern europe and russia you can compare to its nose in europe that is part of the european union is saying it was part of the european

union just for 15 years now come on you're comparing apples and oranges consider. this tell you that russia is much better than russia it is and you need this in russia they are there with those bigger 3 or 4 years ago you also rode for putin the period of time since 2014 has been characterized by and i'm quoting you here the gradual loss of strategic initiative and this is a very common assertion among the critics of the kremlin but i don't understand what. initiative is supposed to be making life better or at least managing it as it is a good example of the people for there is masses doesn't that qualify as there is no inside interest seeing as people can drink a real. what happened was what so called russian middle class before the crisis and i was amazed we saw growing. middle class office managers freelancers those who work generally in service know who's

a russian middle class. civil servants celebrex social work. on a budget payroll those who have early retirement like celebrex considering this is changing the fabric of this is well but it's a broad try and around the world let's do this living standards are falling in the united states in europe including old europe in turkey to play money and when i haven't i haven't seen you know us a story this trying to replace the. barker or or or american worker with american cop i haven't seen this i haven't seen that for example a pentagon or president from goes publicly saying that people want to. like double the number of f.b.i. employees that what happened in russia. happens in scales where the very nature of so chill for break is changing by the highs wonderin just $42000000.00 people and

it is true that per capita russia has more law enforcement officers than most of the other large countries but you cannot replace everyone in russia with law enforcement i mean that you are exaggerating not exaggerating in terms of who are that russian middle class now but let's let let's go back to 75 percent of g.d.p. produces state controlled or parra states or part of states corporations it's not my state mission it's just a nation of invention the mines are a far more away and so on. there's too much state in social fabric and economic for big there's too much state and there were going back to my question about strategic initiatives. i think for what putin sees as he searches you can issue. a couple of national projects that he put forth as sort of the ad. gins of growth and i know that you. view them with i guess quite

a lot of contempt is that i'm sure most of them some of them pretty important. tell me they qualify as strategic initiatives. some of them. are supposed to change the. state work. for. the state works how people leave i think that that was what doesn't work. why is that not working because we have this sluggish growth over income for us. we know and then know pretty well that when you pour one group book money from state budget into record i mean how much do we get in g.d.p. lessons. from my own life i don't know if you're aware of that but if you days ago older vaccination records for most children were digitalized and the judge read him like a b. thank you but it's a huge thing for me as a as a mom of a small key it's freeing me off the rest tape if i ever end up with my kid in the

emergency room doctor will give doctors a chance to assess his health better isn't died a small dot is making you live. their regular work of the government with the national priorities and our experience our feelings about the future because when you're saying about there hold the same if i always say if i say that it's normal that you have a digital right to operate your ex and your kids direction nation online it's pretty unlikely you may be pretty normal but it took a lot of time and a lot of money to put that in practice yes no it doesn't it doesn't it doesn't but he said the government doesn't doesn't deserve the credit for that it's normal for government may deserve the credit for 2 things but i mean this is just one example damage and the quality and poor that's that's the agenda over the actions of 20202024 so forth they built pretty modern state they have.

competent. they're all of very smart people deputy prime ministers there's a lot of and so on and so on and they locally they can make things better why should they give me give them credit for small improvements the big improvement is . still a rise of a living you know this is this is big improvement this is important to everybody and it's just 7 or whatever well you know it's other can kick in here can he fight for it it can fight in equality can he boost economic growth which can do. well the 1st of the 2nd of the sort it doesn't mean that state is fully unaffected i've never said that state can be effective they can do very effective reforms but it's not an agenda well i guess it's a difference between seeing as half full or half empty russians are tend to be more

risk averse than the westerners and i think many people when you and counter something that wasn't there before you tend to appreciate that a bit more than perhaps and i mean the you're smiling but even you know on the for the master who whom you manage she's a non-state actor who managed to put in an entire system of palliative care the beach was never in brusha and she's now given a mandate to expand of across the whole country is that also a little thing i mean that's a little silly because it doesn't since it doesn't change the way how you treat all minority groups ses nothing about their weight how you treat the general population how you see the whole of the general population that ends up in those hospice services the general population sends up and those hospices because of many many reasons but the general population raise a lack of income and huge and more must. actual of the dramatic and the quality

and then you say the state oh yes somebody maybe so and so i got nothing special what i'm saying is it is something ok thank you thank you to saying thanks to personal fix it but it's not it's not it's not the reason for a plan so the reason for all fluff but i think it's a reason for a cautious optimism and i think what i've been trying to argue throughout this program is that the decrease of authority on the part of the presidential administration may be compensated by the increasingly empowered civil society not only on the streets but also taking part in the you know in the fabric of social life but consenting that we have to leave it there because we are a short time i really appreciate you being on the program thank you thank you i mean as can keep this conversation going in our social media pages as for me and the team we hope to see you again same place same time intervals apart.
