20.04.2005 “Worries” on duty Russia is considered a test case of President George W. Bush’s vow to make democracy central to Washington’s relations. Rights activists complain Washington has been too tolerant of Russia’s backsliding on democracy, for fear of losing Putin’s cooperation on Bush’s top priority, the war on terrorism. Although Condoleezza Rice made some of the sharpest U.S. criticism to date of the Kremlin’s record on democracy at the start of a visit to Moscow. Russian President Putin’s efforts to amass power and control television broadcasts are «very worrying» trends that have undermined Russian democracy, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Tuesday. Rice said she saw some bright signs, including nascent efforts to form political parties to vie for the presidency when Putin’s term runs out in three years, and said she understood that it was a «very complicated task» to govern Russia.

Vladimir Krapivinskiy For Chechenpress: New Methods Of Protection Of The Empire!

posted by FerrasB on as Freedom and Fear
April, 19, 2005 New methods of protection of the empire! I should express my opinion about the recently found "know-how" - in apologetics of the state of an imperial type! I found it not somewhere, but in almost the only democratic newspaper remained in Russia , "The New newspaper", in Julia Latynina's sketch "It is a failure". In comparison with her even Chubays, with his idea of "liberal empire", is a simple boy in shorts! In fact, even he has not guessed to oppose an empire to a Nazi state (with the purpose to prove its advantage!)! But we shall read Latynina's opus. "An empire, - she writes, - is a state, where barbarians (vestgots, sunns or Chechens) can achieve the highest posts up to imperial ones ". (The speech is precisely about Georgian Stalin - the governor of the Soviet empire, and German Ekaterina II – Russian empress). Then Julia writes: " Russia was ... >> full

April, 25, 2005 The Repentance in the Day of Victory Chechenpress received an application to Putin from a group of public and legal organizations of Tatarstan with the request to publish it. Generally we do not publish applications to the leaders of criminal Kremlin camarilla, but, as a token of respect for brotherly Tatar people, we make an exception this time. It is published without any alternations. ********* To the President of Russia Putin V.V. Dear Vladimir Vladimirovich! The Victory over the powerful and artful enemy created spiritual and material preconditions for restoration and further development of the national economy of the USSR . It was not a novelty for the people of the Soviet Union what happened during the Great Patriotic War (the Second World War).
