I'm Only Sort Of A Politician.

We Now Live In A Country With A Thousand Political Prisoners, A Country Where Each Week There Are New Trials, Where People Are Put In Jail Because They Liked Something On The Internet.

People Often Say That I Represent People Who Earn A Lot Of Money. Of Course, A Person Who Is Well-educated And Affluent Is More Likely To Support Me Than Vladimir Putin. But That Doesn't Automatically Mean That The Others Are Against Me.

Life Makes No Sense If You Have To Tolerate Endless Lies. I Will Never Accept This System, Which Is Built On Lies, I Will Not Stop My Fight Against This Junta.

I've Been Reading This Little Book. It's Called The Russian Constitution. And It Says That The Only Source Of Power In Russia Is The People. So I Don't Want To Hear Those Who Say We're Appealing To The Authorities. Who's The Power Here?

Unfortunately, People Expect A Russian Opposition Politician To Be A Manic Libertarian Who Thinks The Oligarchs Are Great, Who Isn't Interested In The Problems Of Retirees And Who Believes The Invisible Hand Of The Market Will Resolve Everything.
