Russian march in Lyublino (part 2)

Former leader of the Movement Against Illegal Immigration (DPNI), Alexander Belov-Potkin, speaks about the Caucasus and the behavior of Chechens, saying that Kadyrov has “powerful protection,” that Putin is not eternal, and that “living together isn’t working out.” He arrives to help his associates after a scuffle in which one of the DPNI members was injured.

Nationalists wanted to carry out a “Russian clean-up” at the market near the Vodny Stadion metro station in Moscow, but police officers detained the nationalists themselves for chanting slogans and gathering a large crowd. However, migrants also fell victim to the raid — they too were detained and sent to the police station.

A report on Tesak and his political actions. After his release from penal colony, Maksim Martsinkevich, better known as Tesak, founded the movement Occupy Pedophilia. Tesak and his supporters lure alleged pedophiles to staged meetings and subject them to abuse with impunity. In addition to this group, there are other far-right organizations in Russia that target dealers of synthetic drugs (“spice”), migrant workers, and homosexuals. Despite the fact that the activists themselves upload videos of their attacks, law enforcement agencies have so far shown almost no reaction. On August 1, it became known that Senator Konstantin Dobrynin had asked the Investigative Committee and the Prosecutor General’s Office to investigate the activities of Occupy Gerontophilia, a group of Tesak’s followers who hunt underage gay youths.

In mid-February 2013, after a fight with anti-fascists in Minsk, Maksim Tesak Martsinkevich was placed in a Belarusian pre-trial detention center. The nationalist was released on February 24 on the condition that he appear at the first request. Martsinkevich recounts his time in prison: the first two weeks, he says, are the hardest. He speaks about the Quran — “The cow is good… Who is this even written for?!” — and about his attitude toward the elderly: “Why should I respect some old lady? Suddenly everyone becomes so ‘holy’ behind bars.” He describes buying “vouchers” to get into “better” prison facilities, and how one becomes a “goat” (a prison informant). According to Tesak, the three qualities necessary in prison — and in life — are willpower, intelligence, and physical strength.

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.

Winter training camp of nationalist groups in Moscow. Nationalist leader Dmitry Demushkin and his associates held a gathering in the south of the city. Instructors briefed participants on combat tactics in urban and suburban environments.
