The Communist Party of the Russian Federation and the Liberal Democratic Party had a fight in the Duma over Navalny
The Communist Party faction did not allow Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev to ask his deputy Valery Rashkin a question today, who sent a request to the Prosecutor General's Office of Russia with a request to verify the facts set out in Alexei Navalny's film “He's Not Dimon for You.”

Let us remind you that this film contains accusations of corruption against Dmitry Medvedev that require verification. Navalny's film became the reason for a wave of unauthorized youth rallies. Despite the fact that these rallies attracted the attention of the whole world, all factions entered into a conspiracy of silence and decided not to ask Medvedev about the scandal in which he was at the center.
However, another communist, Nikolai Kolomeytsev, violated the agreement. He asked a long question regarding business lending and the Platon system, unexpectedly ending it with the phrase: “Who is stopping you from refusing the services of Kudrin and Nabiulina and defending yourself from Navalny’s attacks?”
Medvedev was clearly unhappy, but reacted.
“The plot that you mentioned... I have already spoken on this topic. I can only say once again: I will not comment in any special way on the absolutely false products of political crooks. And I would think that the faction of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, which I respect, should refrain from this,” the prime minister said, and the United Russia faction reacted with applause.
Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin also decided to intervene, saying: “The country has already suffered from this once, and above all the CPSU. Therefore, conclusions must be drawn.”
The leader of the LDPR, Vladimir Zhirinovsky, reacted most harshly to the communists’ demarche.
“You, Kolomeytsev, have just made a statement, named the name of this adventurer, and the journalists are only playing on this. This is called meanness. You used the day of the government's report to stamp your name. Who are you advertising? Destroyers of the country,” Zhirinovsky was indignant.
