Eduard Limonov reflects on protest and Russia
4 minutes
Description
Eduard Limonov reflects on division and betrayal: “I can’t deal with Nemtsov at all — he’s a traitor!” He recalls December 10 as the day the opposition split, when instead of going to Revolution Square, Boris Nemtsov led people to Bolotnaya Square — in direct opposition to what the National Bolshevik leader wanted. “They oppose the authorities, but they don’t oppose the system!” Limonov insists, arguing that corruption is merely a symptom, not Russia’s main problem. He accuses the liberal faction of stealing the National Bolsheviks’ slogan “Russia Without Putin” and claims of wanting to build the same Russia, only without Putin.
