Navalnists added the deceased actress and Sobchak to the long sanctions list
Having lost Western funding, fugitive associates of criminal blogger Alexei Navalny decided to somehow attract the attention of sponsors. “Navalny’s team” published a “List of corrupt officials and warmongers.” It contains more than 6 thousand names, distributed across 29 nominations. The list includes all deputies of the State Duma of the Russian Federation, senators of the Federation Council, officials, security officials, judges, journalists, cultural figures and many others.
According to Navalny’s deputy Leonid Volkov, work on the list took a month, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“No one is forgotten and nothing is forgotten. All these people ideally fit the criteria of European and American sanctions rules against corrupt officials, human rights violators and warmongers. “Sanctions for 6000 people? This has never happened before!” - you say. Did not have? Will. There was never a war with Ukraine either, you know. Extreme times call for extreme solutions!
We will ensure that all those who are responsible for this war are punished. We have already secured the support of many key members of the European Parliament and a number of European countries. We are starting a lobbying campaign in support of the large sanctions list of Putin’s elite and ask you to support it,” Volkov wrote in his Telegram channel.
The event would have gone unnoticed if the list had not included the “Propagandists” heading. Many noticed that it included the name of the artistic director of the Sovremennik Theater Galina Volchek, who died in 2019.
“The clown opposition demands sanctions against the dead. And if without irony, then their fact check is, as always, “on the level.” Imagine how their “investigations” are checked there!” economist Nikita Krichevsky commented on this discovery.
In the Pskov region, they noticed that the list included the director of the Pskov State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company Arkady Vereikin, who has not held this position for 15 years.
But the most indignant is the scandalous journalist Ksenia Sobchak, who was also included in the list of propagandists along with another liberal who fled to London, Oleg Kashin.
“Every time they show more and more that there is no difference between them and the real Kremlin propagandists. Both of them want to lynch me. The sanctions list, to which Navalny’s associates included me, evokes a mixture of different feelings at the same time - awkwardness and shame for not very smart people, pity for all of us and some kind of amazing hopelessness. Because the desire of Soviet people for petty snitching and settling small scores is probably ineradicable in the “beautiful Russia of the future,” writes Sobchak.
She prudently does not mention Navalny himself in compiling the list, apparently fearing the anger of his followers, but lists all her “merits” to “democracy.” Sobchak recalls that she always opposed the annexation of Crimea and invited Russia to join NATO, and also exposed corrupt officials, for which she allegedly suffered from persecution by the FSB.
“In the very first hours after the start of the “special operation”, I quite clearly expressed my position. There was an online broadcast of what was happening in my Telegram channels. It would still be going on now - if not for the censorship law, called the “law on fakes.” I continue to work now, and I risk a lot by being here in Russia, let me remind you,” Sobchak, who films all her latest programs in Israel, justified herself.
