A Russian-speaking citizen of Estonia was fired from work for "inappropriate comments on the Independence Parade." Video link

As reported in one of the materials “Military Review”, a parade dedicated to the 98 anniversary of the “formation of the Estonian state” was held in Tallinn this week. Estonian media, citing the country's main military department, said that about 1,1 thousand people and 90 units of military equipment took part in the parade. A day after the parade, a video of the parade appeared in the Baltic Internet publications, which, being behind the scenes, was commented by a Russian-speaking citizen of Estonia. Here are just a few comments on the “outstanding” action arranged in the center of the Estonian capital from the author of the video, which can be seen by clicking on link:

These four people will surely save us ...


Estonian special forces ... Balaklava ... Green sector ... Polite men ... ALL? !! But no, there is someone else going ...


I'll show it on Facebook to Muscovites - let them laugh.


So we went to the debate - without belts, and they have a whole American army.


You see how many medals they have. Where did they fight? ..


After some time, it turned out that the representative of the fire service, or rather the head of the Kesklinna group of the Põhja rescue center, Sergey Menkov, commented on the Estonian parade. The Estonian Rescue Board said they were forced to terminate their employment relationship due to “inappropriate comments”.

After Sergey found out about his dismissal, he made several entries on his page on the social network:
I think the rescue department would be happy to get rid of me. Well, I served my. In fact, there are big changes ahead and for 10 euros per day I do not intend to be on house duty. "There is much in the world, Horatio, that our sages have not dreamed of."
I hope my colleagues (namely colleagues) will not remember me dashing.

Regarding my “interviews and comments” appearing in various media, I must tell my friends that this is a lie. Until the end of the disciplinary investigation, there will be no comments, much less an interview on my part.

Video with comments of the Estonian parade is published on the page of the Estonian edition of Postimees. LINK - HERE.

Estonian officials dismissing Sergei, who really pleased the people with his report from the Tallinn “show”, once again proved that Estonia is a totalitarian, dwarf state with a completely absent concept of “freedom of speech” and “freedom of opinion”. The Military Review is grateful for such a bright Tallinn report to Sergei Menkov, and hopes that the Russian authorities will already offer Sergei a decent job in his important profession, if, of course, he will not mind.

            Is this a parade? To kick him by the leg, but we were in the evening formation and then we walked seriously. But in the parades it turns out I participated every time on the command day. Damn our company formations when there was always not enough staff for service and then they looked more serious, the most important thing is more .What are these incomprehensible "military" units. Sorry I do not know these people in uniform, maybe even good soldiers and officers, but this is not a parade. They look like hell, even before the army is in school, children are more like the military in any normal post-Soviet country. Of course, the frontline may not be the most important thing in describing the army, but damn people gathered to see the military proud, straight, with a sharpened mechanism step of self-confidence, from the step of which the earth trembles, at the sight of which it takes pride, goosebumps. And these are scratching one place, then who is correcting something. Thank you for the fact that I did not participate in a parade that looks like something like a "miracle "The service did not understand why military patrols in civilian life were needed, in fear of which neither a hat, nor a belt should be removed at the bus station. They received punishments in the unit, they were afraid to walk the streets in uniform to suddenly stop the patrol and find an emergency then the punishment in the unit. Now I understand why make us look like military and not like painted clowns!

      but nothing that Switzerland is the most militarized country in Europe?
      "There are only 6 million people in Switzerland." The Government of Switzerland, distributed and distributed free of charge and under personal responsibility in the hands of the citizens of the country 2 million pieces of firearms; including 600 thousand machine guns and 500 thousand pistols! There is no standing army in the country. In return, every citizen is a member of the National Guard (squad) before retirement and every year undergoes retraining at military training for a period of several days to several weeks. At the age of 21-32, men attend training camps as fighters. They are given a machine gun and 24 loaded clips (that is, about 1000 rounds), which they MUST KEEP AT HOME!

      Women are not required to hold handguns, but this is encouraged. In addition to the fact that the government itself obliges citizens to keep firearms, there are practically no restrictions on their private purchase. In addition, the government sells army weapons cheaply when it replaces army weapons with newer and more advanced ones. Arms and shooting ranges are a popular hobby in Switzerland. Annually, more than 200 thousand - 12 of the total population of Switzerland, including children and paralytics, participate in annual shooting competitions.

    Parades in the republics of the Baltics, as always, are thought out and thoughtful. They symbolize the “weakness” of their defense forces, and they make large gaps between the colony’s specially. After all, the people watching the parade are no, no and will cry with pride and happiness when they see their defenders. pouring the river they are given the very breaks in the columns, so that people drain their faces from tears of happiness.

    The bottom line: a public service worker who receives money from the state allowed himself to publicly mock other public servants and the state as a whole. The state in response decided that he no longer needed such an employee.

    For those who like to commemorate, I propose to mirror the picture: imagine that an EMERCOM employee uploads a video from the Victory Day parade, in which he sarcastically goes through this action in a white ribbon style "betterby giving old children"Or"they bombed civilians in Syria".
    And I also propose to recall your own comments about the domestic "creative intelligentsia", which, receiving state money, regularly pours the state with the waste products of its inter-ear ganglion.

    I'm not talking about the marching step; God bless him, since independence, it is possible without a marching step (like MABulgakov's “once there’s a social revolution, you don’t need to drown”) But they go - as if they put them in their pants, arms and legs dangle, there is no OFP! They think they entered NATO, they put on the uniform and the army already ?? And now all this will become part of "all the power of NATO, all 28 countries", how does the NATO commander-in-chief fuss ?? They gave them a technique - they never learned how to drive it, they beep continuously! Then we would have gone with the "emergency gang"! they cannot stand at the edge without a guide!

    An hour passes, a knock on the door, the mother is on the threshold, there are two Estonians, the mother is what they want, I sent you, they: "We want to give the money."
    Continuation of the joke:
    They tell this anecdote in a company in which an Estonian is present, everyone laughed and forgot, after half an hour they exclaimed: "What's so funny, we Estonians are honest people!"

Thank you for the fact that I did not participate in a parade that looks like something like a "miracle "The service did not understand why military patrols in civilian life were needed, in fear of which neither a hat, nor a belt should be removed at the bus station. They received punishments in the unit, they were afraid to walk the streets in uniform to suddenly stop the patrol and find an emergency then the punishment in the unit. Now I understand why make us look like military and not like painted clowns!

    their bugger parades are probably cooler

    Yes, there was a noble comment. At first I thought it was a joke. But no, it's like an adult! Thank!

    In such cases, I always remember the movie "Battleship Potemkin". A dead sailor is lying and in his hands is a cardboard sign: "KILLED FROM BORSCH".

    It’s just that the Estonian authorities didn’t take into account a bit that invisible troops between small support units, to put it mildly, don’t look, or don’t look at all ....

      The Estonian authorities are safe. Suddenly, which migrant decides to carry out a terrorist attack ... One automatic rifle and the country will lose all its armed forces. It’s safer to spread out.

    This is a good example for Russia. It is necessary to drive out from Russia all the herd that is sick with Russophobia, depriving him of Russian citizenship, if there is one, and banning entry to the territory of the Russian Federation for life. The introduction of non-Russian citizens' passports in Russia is more relevant for Russophobes than ever.

    I talked with people who served in the Estonian army, so they said that during a march, a bus goes after the runners, if someone is tired they provide a chair for rest. At first I thought it was a joke, but I was convinced that it was serious. So I want to ask the Estonians: "It's hard in training, it's hard at the parade. But how is it to fight?"

      You know, there is a certain rational grain in it. The essence is reasonable sufficiency. There are special forces and they are not training it at NATO, and motorized infantry is moving to armored personnel carriers and infantry fighting vehicles and it does not need special forces marching. On this topic, you can argue, but people's health different, because not everyone is taken to special forces. Alas, in Russia they still haven’t removed the stupid leveling, that’s why children die in physical education lessons. Everyone needs different health and physical loads individually, at least in school. In the NATO armies, the pilot , whose vision got a little hooked, is simply transferred to transport aviation and there he flies with contact lenses, because transport planes are not designed for the turns and overloads that fighters do. Training a pilot is expensive, and an experienced pilot is also worth a lot , just like that, it will not replace. In Russia people with flat feet and other shortcomings are not accepted into the army, and in the NATO armies these people serve in special boots. There are parts of the national Ion Guard, where great health is also not required. Everything has its place and its time.

    You live in a pro-fascist state with a complete reboot of the brain of Comrade Menkov.

    What kind of animals are these "Russian-speaking" divorced? Before there were Russians, now there are "Russian-speaking". As soon as they are not perverted, if only there were no Russians.
