Yavlinsky "brings Russia home"
The press service of Yabloko said that Grigory Yavlinsky launched this campaign in Ryazan. The campaign consists in collecting signatures for the actual rejection of the protection of Russia's geopolitical interests and focusing exclusively on domestic problems.
One gets the impression that such a program is offered not by a person who has a great experience of being a politician and economist, but an ordinary schoolboy. Focusing on domestic Russian issues is certainly an important thing. However, in modern conditions, domestic problems, by definition, cannot be considered and solved without taking into account numerous foreign policy (geopolitical) factors. Especially since the country and citizens have already passed statements about the “focus of Russia on internal problems” - in the 90s. Everything has led to everything - everyone remembers perfectly well how the failing economic methods of Grigory Yavlinsky himself remember.
The leader of Yabloko for the actual refusal to protect the geopolitical interests of the Russian Federation plans to collect signatures in large Russian cities at 50. And with his rhetoric, Yavlinsky is clearly going to attract electoral attention of those who, due to circumstances, are unable to understand that it is impossible to put fences between the state’s domestic and foreign policy in the global world.
From Yavlinsky's statement Facebook:
The direct costs of the war amounted to already 100 billion rubles. With this money you can build 400 kindergartens, treat 360 thousands of cancer patients, increase funding for universities, the size of children's allowances. One launch of the Caliber cruise missile costs 85 million rubles. This is the average salary of 2,5 thousands of teachers or 2 thousands of doctors. These are the funds that today are very lacking to millions of people in our country who are needed for economic development, which need to be invested in medicine, in education, in science, in our children.
Populism, as you can see, is present. In a number of media outlets and blogs, the Yavlinsky initiative, by the way, was called the hidden support of ISIS (* a terrorist organization is banned in the Russian Federation), as it also implies the immediate withdrawal of the Russian Aerospace Forces from Syria, where the fight against terrorism is taking place.
