Young YABLOKO’s activists conducted an action by the Okhta-Centre in St.Petersburg

Press Release
August 31, 2009



Early in the morning on August 31 activists of the Youth YABLOKO organisation of St.Petersburg conducted an action at the planned location of the projected Okhta-Centre. The residents of the city oppose construction of this centre – another Gazprom’s skyscraper.

The activists hang a cross-street banner “Here comes a traffic jam! Gazprom”. This is how young YABLOKO activists protested against the building which, in addition to other problems, will create large traffic jams in the city.

Many experts predict transport collapse if Okhta-Centre is built in this district, as traffic has been very intense there already.
