Russian opposition politician Lev Shlosberg ponders the reasons why the Federation Council of Russia voted unanimously for the resolution to use Russian troops outside the country and what the implications of Russia's military presence in Syria.
The head of the Pskov regional branch of the party "Yabloko" Leo schloßberg was the only opposition Deputy of the Pskov legislative Assembly. The first politician in the Russian Federation has published data on the victims in the Donbas Russian paratroopers. At the end of August 2014 he wrote in "closed" funeral soldiers of the 76th Pskov airborne division who had allegedly participated in hostilities in the Southeast of Ukraine. In response to the request of the Chief military Prosecutor's office has invoked the state secret, did not specify the place of the tragedy. After the publication of the Shlosberg was attacked: he was beaten and went to hospital. The politician links the attack with his publication. Recently Slosberg deprived of the Deputy mandate. For the newspaper Pskovskaya Guberniya, the opposition wrote an article in which talks about the reasons why the Federation Council of Russia voted unanimously for the resolution to use Russian troops outside the country, and about what will be the consequences of Russia's participation in the military conflict in the middle East.
September 30, 2015 Russia has entered a new war. The full significance of this will become clear later, and this day will be mentioned in the history books not only for higher education but also for schoolchildren. Because he will play a big and tragic role in the history of our country. So far officially announced that the Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has turned to Russian President Vladimir Putin asking for military assistance, Vladimir Putin addressed in the Federation Council with a request to use the Armed Forces of Russia outside of Russia, the Federation Council immediately this request was granted, and hostilities immediately commenced. In fact, by that time Russian troops were already in Syria.
Before to write about current and upcoming implications of the decision, I would say most, in my opinion, important for the citizens of Russia: the Federation Council (Chamber of regions), the request Putin to use Armed Forces in Syria met e-di-no-voice-no.
That is, no, I'm sorry, Lord, Senator, representing in this body the authorities of the Russian regions (two of each), not opposed. All merged in a great ecstasy of delight. No "member of the Upper house" not questioned the need to throw into the furnace of a distant war the Russian soldiers and billions of rubles of budget. None of these receiving a salary from taxpayers ' money a high-ranking playboy's money is not natural asked a simple question: why?
For me as a Russian citizen it's embarrassing unanimity is the most tragic evidence of the moral catastrophe that befell the Russian state power. Between these people and the people – not just the abyss. These people are deeply, inherently alien to the people, hostile to him, his interests, to each word in the title of this authoritative body, you can add the particle NOT: Nesbet Nfederal and so on.
In a fit of insanity the loyal senators, who did not know still nothing about the situation in Syria, thoughtfully, remembering that on some get-togethers ordinary Syrians allegedly complained about the Islamic state: they have no life from him, here Bassar Ashad – Yes, our man. It's not even a shame, it's a Testament to the complete degeneration of the state. The government became anti-people in the fullest sense of the word.
Asked to throw people's lives into the jaws of the Minotaur? No problem, it's other people's life, women give birth, and we to them first, the funeral benefit will give, and then the maternity capital. Those who have will be able to give birth. And wages in the Federation Council do not delay, why worry about thrown in the furnace of people's war billions?
I would have formed from those members of the Federation Council of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation separate battalion and sent to Syria first. In full force. But this GOP-company BEFORE making the decision knew that at full strength this will be the first battalion. And none of them will give liberation "on set of merits before the Motherland", "for health reasons" and "the plight of the family." They should know what the consumption will go all of them.
I'll have a look then on their Patriotic vote.
List of members of the Federation Council on the day of this decision are known by their names, to hide it all, to forget and we will not give.
Now, briefly on the political implications of this decision.
Vladimir Putin has decided thus to divert attention from events in Ukraine, decided to "earn forgiveness" for the Crimea, Donbass and DND-LNB in a single bloody vial. Will not work. This is not a situation of bargaining: you forget about Ukraine, we throw feed DND-LNB, again, the world-friendship-gum-Europe-our people in nice and Paris. Such bargaining is no one to lead with Vladimir Putin will not. European States led by different people, there are a lot of cynics. But not to this extent.
Vladimir Putin has managed this decision will come into conflict simultaneously with Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Israel. It was difficult to come up with a solution to annoy the three pillars of the Middle East immediately. But Putin coped with the task. Oil prices, which are substantially controlled by Saudi Arabia, will soon give the answer to the decision. Answer Saudi Arabia Vladimir Putin will not be able. Simply because the answer will be nothing.
Vladimir Putin has decided to not help the fight against Islamic state, he decided to save Bashar al-Assad – his partner, a political suicide bomber, with seat in the Hague which already remove dust and waiting for his arrival. If I live, of course. Reputation ally of Bashar al-Assad – only this glory was not enough in the world to complete the formation of the image.
Vladimir Putin has decided to tell world leaders: see how you should act, now I will show you how making a big deal from a position of strength. But the first Russian bombs were not in places of a dislocation of divisions of the army of the Islamic state, and in locations of opponents of Bashar al-Assad. The victims were not only armed men, but civilians. Russia denies its responsibility and demands will present her with evidence of the perfect. Evidence - on the ground, and it is not on the court procedure. It's about the principle: did - answer. Russia does not intend to follow this principle. Syria will not forget. And not only Syria.
Vladimir Putin intervened in the dispute between the Islamic tribes", without thinking through the consequences of this intervention. U.S., NATO have not got the manpower to this hot pan, limiting itself to mostly political and economic measures (the military - only with air), and Vladimir Putin climbed. No one told him that in response to these actions, the war could come to Russia?
No one suggested. Because, apparently, to suggest such a thing Vladimir Putin is none: his inner circle, influencing the most important decisions, is now himself a dangerous mix of intellectual crooks and political crooks. They are well fed for the budget bill. And give Vladimir Putin a pleasant his ear killer (for Russia – suicidal) advice. He listens to them.
The soldiers, who have already sent and will send to Syria, died and will die not for Russia and not even in Syria – they have died and will die personally for Vladimir Putin, for its television ratings, ego power, life extension Board.
It's not just expensive – it is invalid price.
Apparently, the virus destruction of the country is very deeply struck by the highest authorities of Russia. All the key decisions they make now, go to the detriment of Russia, lead to the impoverishment and destruction of the people, the closer the collapse of the Russian state.
It is impossible not to recollect about the water now Soviet troops in Afghanistan: how did, what resulted, and how they turned out.
In the end, after Afghanistan: tens of thousands dead and wounded, the depletion of resources, international isolation, the collapse of the Soviet state. Since the introduction of troops in Afghanistan until the collapse of the USSR 12 years ago. The troops were withdrawn, when the military operation ended in complete failure. But the withdrawal is not saved from collapse by the state.
For some time the attention of users of Russian TV as itself is pure will be attracted to Syria. There are even some who will believe the delirium that came with the TV. Not a very long time. Very quickly this lie will replace the truth of life rude. Zinc coffins. The funeral. The memoirs of colleagues. Blood-curdling details. Awareness is like sobering up.
And is most vile: "I did not send you there!" As the crown of relations between the state of man.
Bestiality Afghan war again. It even multiplied, because of personal the qualitative composition of the Russian authorities is now much worse than in 1980-ies. Of these summands nothing good not will build.
And 130 members of the Federation Council, where each of them will ask: "why You voted for this war?" – will babble something obscene about "the President", "we knew nothing" and "what could we do?".
"It's not us".
You could stop the war, you could save people's lives, but you cowards and scoundrels.
You have chosen to donate to people not even in the name of something, but simply because the chief came and said to you, I want those lives. And you gave him life people, cowards and scoundrels.
Soviet troops in Afghanistan cowardly called "limited military contingent" to conceal the scale of the military action. Today in Russia the authorities – it's kind of limited military force against the people.
It will be launched from Russia, this limited enemy contingent. He surrenders to the people, voluntarily or forced.
It is very important that the trial was not in the Hague, and in Russia.
