Solovyov voiced for the first time who is behind Navalny inside Russia
Liberal speakers have repeatedly stated that protests in support of opposition blogger Alexei Navalny are intended to force Russian President Vladimir Putin to appoint a successor beneficial to certain forces in the shadows.
Leading state media for a long time preferred to talk about a Western order for a color revolution in Russia, although they did not deny that Navalny had influential patrons in Moscow.
Finally, TV presenter Vladimir Solovyov decided to tell who is behind the Navalny project in Russia, although he again did not name specific names.
“What we see now is the resurfacing of the failed coup of 2011-12. When the pushed aside pro-Western elites, some of them pro-Yeltsin, closed ranks and set the main task - to prevent Putin’s return. Not because there was an interpersonal conflict between Putin and Medvedev. The conflict was that the Putin of 2011-12 was no longer the same Putin who thought about the possibility of Russia joining NATO, becoming part of Europe and being in line with American politics. Putin has already realized the danger posed by NATO; the Munich speech has already been delivered. Then they got scared,” Soloviev said on his YouTube channel.
According to him, on the eve of the presidential elections in Russia in 2012, current US President Joe Biden came to Moscow and convinced Putin not to nominate his candidacy so that Dmitry Medvedev could be re-elected for a second term.
At the same time, the liberal TV channel “Dozhd” was created, which began to actively conduct anti-Putin propaganda. In addition, “people from Medvedev’s entourage” recruited and won oligarchs over to their side. It was no coincidence that the same period coincided with the demarche of the “A Just Russia” faction, which appeared at the sitting of the State Duma of the Russian Federation with white ribbons symbolizing protest.
At that time, Navalny was already involved in the case of theft of Kirovles funds. As the former vice-governor of the Kirov region Sergei Karnaukhov said, after the region was headed by SPS representative Nikita Belykh, there were more than enough reasons to open criminal cases there.
“Materials have accumulated concerning the activities of Maria Gaidar (Advisor to the Governor - ed.). They did a lot of things in the medical field. Gaidar had accomplices from the Union of Right Forces, these people were immediately appointed to the positions of deputy ministers in the region. Then they got involved in real estate,” said Karnaukhov.
However, the work of the investigative authorities was complicated by the fact that representatives of the US Republican Party were actively working in the area. Even Hillary Clinton's visit was being prepared.
Karnaukhov, citing sources in the FSB, claims that representatives of the Kirov regional authorities then actively met with American residents and received assignments from them.
“This was the first attempt by the West, together with internal elites, to try to build an “ideal model of the future Russia,” Karnaukhov said.
Apparently, in order not to cause an “international outcry,” it was decided to initiate a case in which the least promoted member of Governor Belykh’s team, his adviser Alexei Navalny, appeared. However, the arrest of the defendant was prevented by Gaidar, who was in a romantic relationship with a married man.
“When the time came for Navalny’s detention, Maria Gaidar did everything to evacuate him. She hid Navalny somewhere, and he left the region. She was going to take him abroad,” Karnaukhov said.
Gaidar turned to the US Embassy for help, after which the operatives in charge of the case began to experience great difficulties. The girl involved her friends from the liberal media, raised money and organized the education of her beloved at Yale University.
Navalny was still in the United States when his first investigation was published in Russia, and it was done very well. Karnaukhov believes that it was at this moment that a connection between the external and internal curators of the newly-minted blogger occurred.
Vladimir Solovyov believes that already the first investigations of Navalny were paid for by Russian businessmen.
“All Navalny’s investigations were an order, which is believed to have been brought by Stas Belkovsky (a political scientist who collaborated with the oligarch Boris Berezovsky). From the moment Ashurkov appeared, the owners changed,” Soloviev said.
Vladimir Ashurkov at that time worked as a top manager at Alfa Group. He left his post in 2012. It was this year that the operational recording of Ashurkov’s conversation with a representative of British intelligence, recently “leaked” to the media, is dated. The Russian asks for money and promises to make public the dirt on domestic businessmen that the British need.
“If we look at what deals Navalny broke, for example, with VTB, which was involved in foreign economic and defense projects, what he did to collapse the foreign economic relations of Transneft and Rosneft, we will find real subversive work. Before each attack, a certain group on the exchange made short bear trades. As soon as the post came out, the blue chips went down a little, but this was enough to make hundreds of thousands of dollars,” says Soloviev.
Already at that time, Navalny was preparing to seize power in Russia.
“I personally attended one of the meetings at one of the largest consumer banks in Russia. Large Russian businesses were gathered there for a closed meeting. Navalny and Ilya Ponomarev came there and told business what would happen when they came to power: “We can consider now your appointment to those positions that will be vacated when we take the Kremlin. All that is required of you is to give some money now.” This bank was one of the operators of the protest. There were security officials there, and there were those who no longer work near the Kitay-Gorod metro station (Apparently, this means the presidential administration - ed.),” said Sergei Karnaukhov.
According to Solovyov, by 2012, all Western-funded non-governmental organizations, as well as the parallel “networks” of Navalny and Mikhail Khodorkovsky, were working according to a single plan - with the support of businessmen and former government officials who had “fallen out of the nest”.
The triumphant reunification of Crimea with Russia, which caused an explosion of patriotism in the country, forced them to postpone their plans for some time, but now they have remembered them.
“They convinced Westerners that Putin did not have enough support inside Russia. All you have to do is blow and there will be no Putin. It was a big surprise for them that there was no explosion,” Solovyov said.
He also claims that no one is going to make Navalny a president.
“Into the hole that Navalny and his Hitler Youth will make, the disgusting mug of the oligarchs of the 90s, the discarded elite, political strategists, and all sorts of media bastards who sat back and waited for the moment to turn Russia back will push through. They are sure that Navalny must burn in the dense layers of the atmosphere, and then they will appear on the stage,” Solovyov said.
