Although Sevastopol did not support the protests organized by Alexei Navalny, the city is monitoring their progress. The chairman of the Sevastopol branch of the all-Russian public organization "Business Russia" Oleg Nikolaev, who in the last elections to the State Duma of the Russian Federation positioned himself as an ally of Alexei Chaly, wrote about this on his Facebook.

“Welcome to the new reality. Even in Sevastopol, people talk about 800 detainees and thousands of students and schoolchildren on the streets of our cities. And what should we do with them now? – Nikolaev wrote.
He associates this trend with the policies of the city and Crimean authorities, which he considers “mediocre.”
“Three years after the annexation of Crimea were wasted; patriotic enthusiasm was drained into the incompetent leadership of Crimea and the myrrh-streaming busts of Nicholas II. Everyone has already become accustomed to the war in Syria. Youth cannot be seduced by stability and defense capability - they do not know what the collapse of a country or a weak army means, which they certainly do not want to serve in for the same reason they came out to protest yesterday - corruption. For her, the face is everything they encounter around them,” Nikolaev wrote.
