US citizen staged a provocation on Red Square
An American woman walking a calf was detained on February 1 on Red Square in Moscow. Alicia Day said that she was trying to protest against eating meat in this way. Previously, she had already carried out similar events in other capitals - she walked a sheep in Warsaw, and in London - a pig.
A report was drawn up against the US citizen for resisting the police and for an unauthorized rally that interfered with pedestrians, arrested for 13 days and fined 20 thousand rubles. The calf was taken to an animal rehabilitation center, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
The girl told the court that she came to Russia in January on a tourist visa and was going to send the calf to the stable after a walk on Red Square. The girl denies that she resisted the police.
Political scientist Maxim Zharov believes that US intelligence services are behind Day’s action.
“In its indirect interference in Russia’s internal politics, the Biden administration is relying on political actionism. The goal is to create informational reasons for the application of “politically charged” articles of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation to US citizens in Western media. Therefore, the seemingly absurd actionism of the American “zoo activist” on Red Square is precisely an example of such “indirect actions.”
Zharov predicts that Alicia Day will be deported from Russia without serving administrative arrest.
“And the new US Ambassador Lynn Tracy, using the example of the case with Day, will now be directly warned about the inadmissibility of launching a “parallel” domestic policy in Russia,” the expert wrote in his TG channel.
