Some random people: "Now civil war is going to break out in Russia!"
The town Baymak has a population of 17ooo, the crown supporting Fayl Alsynov was estimated at 10ooo. Their battle started 4 years ago over concrete company wanting to destroy a mountain that the Bashkiris treated as sacred for cheap lime . The 2 owners of the cement company that made profits of 30 million euros on revenue of 35 million euros in 1 year, spend their money buying vineyards on the south of France.
Revolution is coming
This has CIA written all over it.
wow have the russians finally found their balls?
So sad
doesn't really looks like hundreds protesting, just school children doing march past with the police, perhaps the likes of what took place in france can be called a protests.
Putin is oppressive minorities all over russia and ukraine
Great respect for those brave Russian protesters!
Sovereignty for the Bashkir Nation!
Protests in Russia = The Balkanization of Russia!
Violent protests/riots in France = Just a normal day in France
Protests in Germany – Nothing to see here folks, move on!!
It's a minar case
But the number of protesters and case
Don't get along
Very weird
I don't know what is the solution
But ease would help if ease always come with rules
Also rewards for who informs about foreign protest funding
There's a great solution I made in my home town for outside funding
Is That whoever was funded can keep 80% of the money they where funded by outsiders
And 20% goes to protect them
Its called the 100% no interference policy
The rules with ease is a different story
It depends more on the nature of country and culture .
Elmark letter to presido putin
It's "THE BOOMERANG EFFECT!"
Putin's heart is for Islam country and Islam refugee.
Now they want Putin's head.😀
