Sergei Mitrokhin: A Just Russia party represents an obsequious branch of the ruling party
Press Release, 27.09.2014
YABLOKO leader Sergei Mitrokhin has said that YABLOKO has never cooperated with A Just Russia party and is not going to cooperate.
Mass media have recently reported that A Just Russia party condemned the Peace March [for peace between Russia and Ukraine] held in Moscow and found it “unacceptable when party branches” cooperated with a number of political forces that took part in the action, including the YABLOKO party.
According to Mitrokhin, “they have a high superiority complex, we have never cooperated and will not cooperate with them. We believe A Just Russia represents an affiliate branch of the ruling party, and they serve the ruling party in a very obsequious way – they are servants of the present authorities”.
Mitrokhin also draws the attention to the fact that the political rhetoric of A Just Russia vanishes as soon as they get “an order from the Kremlin,” and then they “line, salute and vote for what they were told to vote”.
Sergei Mitrokhin also stresses that YABLOKO members “feel nothing but disgust towards A Fair Russia”.
