Remembering Anya
Despite pouring rain, those remembering Anna Politkovskaya were present at Novopushkinsky square. “We expected no more than 20 people to come with such weather, and it’s 300 hundred to have come” expressed their surprise the OMON officers who provided correctly for security at that meeting, jointly with interior department units. The meeting was organized by Novaya Gazeta with the purpose of demanding the open trial on the culprits.

Working At The Wrong Address
Investigative Committee has refused another time to establish the organizers of the Novaya Gazeta journalist, Igor Domnikov. Igor was killed 8 years ago. The killers, the members of Tagiryanovskaya gang, who executed this paid murder, were sentenced, while the organizer and mediator were not. The editorial board of Novaya Gazeta has the names of people involved in the murder in question. Those are the Moscow businessman and a friend of Tagiryanovskaya gang Pave Sopot, and the former vice-governor of Lipezk region, today’s director of a meat processing plant Dorovskoi. Nonetheless, neither Tatarstan Prosecutor’s Office nor the Investigative Committee, instructed by its head Alexander Bastrykin after our insistent demands, started a criminal case against the mentioned persons.

Let The Crisis Be Dealt With By Public
In relation to the financial crisis affecting the country’s economy, the Russian authorities are sending amazingly contradicting messages to the society. Some officials say confidently that this is the crisis beyond the sea that is to be blamed, as the government there, having belief into “invisible hand of the market”, has led the economy of the most powerful state in the world to the financial crash, and now is trying to drive other peoples to the bottom of the chasm.

The “Lawyer’s Son” To Deal With Corruption. Here’s Good Choice For You!
Vladimir Zhirinovsky to get an offer from the top level. On Tuesday the leader of LDPR came to a meeting with the top person in the country, being an ordinary leader of a Duma’s faction, and left the presidential office in a capacity of the main expert for corruption. It has been many to receive an offer to work for the head of state, but Vladimir Zhirinovsky seemed to be perplexed with such an unexpected turn: he had wanted to bring to the Kremlin his usual sack with the votes of his electors, and the master asked him to take personal part in struggle with corruption.

Will The State Help Its Citizens Like It Helped The “Favored” Companies And Banks?
While in Russia the state has become the managing and directing force in economy quite long ago, the rest of developing and developed countries have been dealing with such a metamorphosis for just a few weeks. Financial and other kinds of companies with century-long traditions and giant capitalization and crystal pure reputation are queuing for getting the emergency financial aid from their governments. The governments are competing in generosity, giving those suffering losses the credits for hundreds billion dollars or through taking the share in their capital (which is called nationalization). In this sense, Russia is no exception and is repeating in general the actions by the US and European countries.
