Residents of emergency at home can ruin the celebration of Voronezh authorities: a review of the regional press

economy

The possibility of realization in the Voronezh region scale agricultural project - creating complex to produce a full cycle of beef, including a herd of 500 thousand units and processing plant with capacity of 2 thousand units a day - is considered an American company Anderson Cattle Company. Such a project could cost more than $ 1 billion, but analysts say the place is completely sverhmasshtabny complex in one area is almost impossible. On June 30 this newspaper Kommersant wrote (Voronezh).



As the newspaper writes, June 29, Voronezh Governor Alexei Gordeev has met with Chairman of the American investment company Anderson Cattle Company Douglas Anderson and a representative of this company advising the law firm Akin Gump Jeff Verhoffom. "Mr. Anderson, Mr. Gordeev announced plans for a cattle-breeding complex for the production of beef, a full cycle that includes the gene segment, a network of suppliers and calf feed, feedlots and meat processing plant with capacity of up to 2 thousand units per day. The company will be provided by a herd of 500 thousand . heads. The total investment, according to the press service oblpravitelstva, estimated at "hundreds of millions of dollars." Douglas Anderson told the governor that his company specializes in the creation and development of vertically integrated agricultural systems in the U.S. and other countries: in particular , large-scale project was recently carried out in China. "In recent years, experts have been studying the company's implementation of this project in Russia and came to the conclusion that the Voronezh region can be successful for this site" - said the oblpravitelstve. At the meeting it was agreed that company representatives will visit the districts of the region, where possible look for areas of the project. The second round of talks will be held in September. "

"It should be noted that Americans could become is the third attracted Alexei Gordeev investors in the establishment of breeding farms in the region of cattle. At the end of last year it was announced that the project company," Stephenson satellite, "which has brought the region 1.4 thousand heads of the parent flock Aberdeen Angus and Hereford. And earlier this year became aware of plans to co-owner of "Centre of Genetics" Angus "" (Kaluga region), Sergei Nitsenko that the fall of 2011 plans to bring in the region of U.S. Podgorensky three thousand head of maternal herds of Aberdeen Angus and Hereford, in 2012 - another 10 thousand, also built feedlots. "

"The head of the executive committee of the National Meat Association Sergei Yushin said that" in Russia a good demand for beef, but her proposal as chilled and frozen, is limited to ":" On average, our country produces about 1.7 million tonnes of beef per year , still the order of 600-700 tons is imported. And 98% of our beef is actually produced from dairy cattle, that is, the meat are culled cows and calves of dairy breeds that can not be called efficient production due to its high cost and poor quality products. Moreover, since today we do not increase the milk production capacity due to the livestock, and by increasing the productivity of the cows, the risk of reducing the number of culled animals, respectively, the shortage of beef, we can begin to grow even more. "At the same time, Mr. Yushin called project "too huge" in terms of volume of production and the size of the required investment. He recalled that the attachment size of agricultural holding "Miratorg" a project for the production of beef in the Bryansk region of 100 thousand heads of over 24 billion rubles. "Draft American bigger it several times - emphasizes Sergey Yushin. - So I think that it requires sverhsereznoy study. I doubt that its implementation will begin soon. "One of the Voronezh farmers, who requested anonymity, suggested that the project altogether can not be realized by recalling ambitious plans of ex-Governor Vladimir Kulakov, the partnership with the Government of Bavaria for the implementation of agricultural project in the region worth more than $ 3 billion. "

Residents of the destroyed house in the heart of the city threatened to spoil the anniversary of Voronezh, wrote in its issue of June 28 My weekly!. As it became known edition, large-scale reconstruction Lenin Square would not affect emergency house number 6, which residents seek relocation for a decade.



As recalled by the newspaper, the 425-th anniversary of Voronezh on Lenin Square is planned renovation: work has already started work on laying the granite slabs and blocks. In addition to the tiles on the area by August 25 will be a new lighting system, as well as parking for 140 places for cars of the regional government. Will be repaired and the facades of adjacent buildings. "To repair the facade oblpravitelstva already started. Also on Lenin Square will be renovated facades number 3, 4, 5, 8, 14, 15. But the house number 6 on the list there," - says the publication. The newspaper recalls that the building was found in an emergency even ten years ago.

"In 1996, the detached piece of the cornice had killed a passerby and crippled girl. After this five-story building was surrounded by a fence, and the facade of the house repeatedly artificially pulled down to, God forbid, another piece of plaster fell off somebody's head ... In terms of competition, Ltd. won "Pavlovskgranit-Zhilstroy" emergency building had to be demolished later built on the site a new home. And all the residents of 74 apartments in 2003 was planned to move to next shestietazhku built. However, collapsing in front of residents' stalinka "wait for the housewarming this day. At first a few years delayed construction of a new home, then were thwarted time to take stock of communications and finishing of apartments ... Residents from time to time hold a protest, they called the new settlement terms that are not enforced. Earlier this year, residents again promised to regional administration, that the keys to the apartments they receive by June 1. But so far in the new building so no one possessed ... Moreover, as we are assured tenants of the house number 6, in the new building under construction has been violated several rules: on the landings do not turn around, and underground floors poured groundwater. In "Pavlovskgranit-Zhilstroy" assure that all standards are met when building a house, now completed landscaping, after which the new building will finally be ready to accept tenants. When asked why the construction was delayed, CEO Sergei Moses replied philosophically, that the construction is hard to plan something for sure, "- says," My! ".

On the issue of the newspaper, why types of buildings in the center of Voronezh, not to put in order at least to the anniversary of Voronezh, the deputy head of the Department of Housing Rowing Sergei noticed that there is no sense in this, since the house is still subject to demolition, and tenants are categorically against any any repairs.

"Sami residents confirm that the mask will not allow his old house for the City Day or repair of the facade, or a net. Moreover, as we said one of the residents house number 6, do not rule out the possibility that the holiday itself desperate people will go to the area with posters Lenin, to tell the city how they deceive the officials and builders. "

Society

Voronezh region disrupts terms of providing benefits to rural doctors, writes in the issue dated June 30, "Rossiyskaya Gazeta". "Contrary to the recently adopted amendments to the regional law on sotspodderzhke certain categories of people, from July 1, employees of medical institutions in rural areas do not begin to receive compensation for housing and communal services. Officials promise to urgently finalize the regulatory framework, and then the money will go out oblbyudzheta" - the newspaper writes.

"In late May, the Voronezh medical and pharmaceutical workers who live in rural areas, ensure social support in the form of a 100 percent reimbursement for the use of housing, its maintenance and repair (except for private homes), as well as electricity and heat (including the acquisition and delivery of coal or wood) - reminiscent of "WP". - Once upon a time there were corresponding benefits, then the state of their "streamlined." In the Voronezh region in recent years, rural doctors isolated a strictly fixed amount, until recently it was 320 rubles - that considerably lower than real costs. And now, according to the changed regional law on 1 July was due to begin providing cash compensation to the actual consumption of housing services medical staff of regional health organizations residing in the village. sotspodderzhki Similar measures should consider prior to that date and at the municipal level. But the process, as it turned out, was delayed. In the month of June to the Editor "RG" repeatedly asked the representatives of the medical community of the districts, telling that in the local Social Security is not going to proceed to such payments. Now the problem stated at the level of governments in the region. "

"The governor Alexei Gordeev has said that the situation in funding for municipal employees sotspodderzhki health institutions should take the regional budget. Ordered to prepare further amendments to the legislation, then they will have to consider and adopt the Regional Council (which will soon disperse on vacation). And only after that will receive cash compensation for all, without exception, Voronezh physicians living in rural areas. "

Culture and education

The reconstruction of the monument of Fame in Voronezh will cost 20 million rubles, reported July 1, "Komsomolskaya Pravda in Voronezh." Restoration, which is now being actively planned to be completed by September.

"Repair rather cosmetic - told the publication in the management culture of the administration of Voronezh. - Replace the old brick on slab granite, pripodnimut eternal flame, to make it look more majestic. In addition, a new path."

"Sam will not remove the monument. It is planned just a little patch up the cracks, because all this stuff for those forty years, the monument is not repaired, have accumulated a lot. But the lighting system will change. However, what it is, officials have to hide. It is said - it should be a surprise for residents and visitors to the Voronezh city's anniversary. All work associated with the reconstruction of the monument of Glory, have to spend about 20 million. The money will come from local and regional coffers.

More than 150 graduates of Voronezh, or 1.5%, failed this year to collect a minimum score to pass the exam in Russian language and mathematics. This was in the room on July 2, writes the "Commune".

"Head of the Department of Education, Science and Youth Policy of the Voronezh region, Oleg Mosolov informed Governor Alexei Gordeev on the results of the state final attestation of high school graduates and of implementing the project of modernization of the educational system in the region. According to him, this year's unified state examinations in thirteen subjects passed more than 12.5 thousand high school graduates this year and 1,200 graduates of the past. The analysis shows that the increased number of people willing to take exam in the natural sciences, physics, chemistry, and several other subjects of your choice. At the same time graduates have demonstrated knowledge better than in Russia as a whole. In addition, 38 people on the basis of the USE have a 100-point result. But the minimum threshold for the Russian language and mathematics were not able to overcome more than 150 students, or 1.5 percent of the total number of graduates (for comparison, in Russia this figure is 2 percent ). All of them will be presented to the right to correct unsatisfactory marks in the coming year, and while the results of nine years of schooling they have the opportunity to enroll in institutions of primary or secondary vocational education. "

"In the commission of a conflict the" first wave "of exam appeals received 1.420. As a result, decided to raise scores on individual criteria in the" with "401 participants, that is one third of graduates. The rest refused. It appeals to the procedure of carrying out - of a formal nature. They have because of the need to annul the results when the child was unable to continue an examination for health reasons.

The cheapest apartment in Moscow in June, cost 3.65 million rubles

The cheapest apartment in Moscow, will manage the administrative boundaries of 3.65 million rubles (at the end of June), analysts say the real estate market, it is located in the remote district of the city - Zelenograd. If we consider the real estate within the Ring Road, the cheapest apartments are located on the southern and eastern outskirts of the city. So the cheapest apartment in South-Eastern Administrative District was sold in June for 3.9 million rubles, in the Eastern District can not find a cheaper apartment 4 million rubles. The minimum bid price of apartments in the Southern and Northern administrative district was 4.1 million. Next in the ranking of minimum prices follow South-West and North-Eastern region, where the minimum value was 4.2 and 4.3 million rubles, respectively. In the Western District of the most modest apartment would have cost 4.4 million rubles, and in the Northwest - 4.5 million rubles. Maximum attachment characteristic of the city center. A modest apartment within the Garden Ring in June 2011 offered for 9.5 million rubles, the authors of the study.


The significant difference in the minimum value of apartments in different districts is not determined by differences in the characteristics. Most of them are flat-twin in old houses with a small total area, combined bathroom and kitchenette, situated far from the subway. The defining difference is the location, the prestige areas. The cheapest apartment North-West region (4.5 million) is actually a clone of the cheapest apartments in the south-east of the city (3.9 million) - both apartments studios, combined with bathrooms, a kitchen for 6 square. m. Both occupy 30 square meters. m on the second floor of a brick five-story building, built in the 1961-1962 year, but their prices vary by 15%.
"Out of the total mass of similar apartments in the five-and nine-60s got a rating of very low-cost housing is allocated participant rating of the city center" - the expert added. The apartment is located in one of the tall buildings on Novy Arbat Street - on the 12th floor of the 24-storey building. From a window overlooking the White House and the Moscow River, a spacious kitchen - 10 square meters. m. In spite of all the virtues, according to experts, this is the most overrated apartment, both in absolute (550 rubles) and relative (6%) terms. Also strongly (at 5% or 200 thousand) exceeded the market price in the ads for the cheapest apartment in the North-East District and North District. Most adequately assessed their property representatives of the Western and Northwestern districts. As earlier in the rating were not included small-sized apartments of less than 30 square meters. m apartment on the first and last floors.

Muscovites believe that the repair - it is the duty of the state: poll results

Who should pay for the repair of houses - the state or the tenants themselves? Especially this issue is relevant with respect to the old housing stock, which the former owner - the state - to transfer to new owners - the citizens as a result of privatization, the magazine notes on real estate Metrinfo.ru.

On the one hand, experts say, there is a "federal" view that the owners should contribute financially to the overhaul of its home at the level of 5% of the cost of repairs. For this purpose a specially formed Fund for reform of housing and communal services (HCS Foundation), written by a special law on its activities. Those homes whose residents have expressed willingness to collect the money allocated money from the fund housing. According to the fund, since 2008 in Russia was repaired nearly 115 000 houses (some repairs at the moment is still going on). The second direction was formed in Moscow by Yuri Luzhkov, who declined to participate in federal projects in Moscow and in the pre-crisis years has developed its own superprogrammu overhaul, according to which expected to clean up about 14 million homes. The crisis has shown that such a program the city did not pull the new city authorities, said Metrinfo.ru, look at the prospects for repair in another way: in particular, the prefect of the Central District of Sergei Baidakov in a recent interview, said: "Moscow in accordance with federal model offers a mechanism for fiscal subsidies to the owner, who decided to conduct an overhaul of your home. In the capital, it will be the first time. Today, it houses 64 expressed their willingness to share in the overhaul. The fact that people take responsibility for their homes, said the maturity of the society . The owners will pay from 5 to 25 percent of the work. The rest - at the expense of the municipal budget. This is the "first signs" the practical implementation of housing reform. " Thus, the overhaul of a small house can cost 15-20 million rubles. 5 percent of that amount - 750 000. If the house 30 apartments, it turns to 25 thousand rubles from the apartment, experts state.


"Pay for the repair it would be logical to include in the monthly zhirovki that we all get from managing companies. But the question arises - that money must somehow build up and not eaten up by inflation. How to do it - not very clear ... By the way, the owners housing in our country, the majority - about 80%. And everything goes to the fact that the idea of ​​a free repair must part forever, "said a Metrinfo.ru. magazine conducted a poll to find out how Muscovites about the prospects of paying for major repairs of their homes.

"Have you heard that the authorities want the tenants are required to pay repair?" 62% of respondents did not know about it, 38% - had heard. Who, in terms of population, should pay for major repairs - the state or the owners? 67% of respondents believe that the repairs should be made by the government and 3% are confident that this business owners, and 4% said that this duty should divide equally between the owners and the state, 26% of respondents were undecided.

The group, which advocated a "state" major repairs (67%) gave the following arguments: First, people genuinely believe that the overhaul they already pay, making the monthly rent and taxes. According to experts, such ignorance is said that people do not know where their money and what they spent. Here are their comments: "the house for 40 years, all these years, paying utility bills with the money and need to make repairs," "should take money from the rent, otherwise what are we paying?", "Pay taxes - from the money and need to repairs take, "" pay for the content of 35 homes housing, repairs did not once "," pay a lot of money, even for what you do not use. "

Townspeople also believe that the named prefect Baidakov sum - 25 thousand rubles from the apartment - it's a lot of "expensive people to pay for major repairs at home, especially if he has a lot of years," "we have old five-story building, where seniors to get money for repairs? They and on their own redecorating apartments no money! "," large sums on repairs, tenants do not assemble themselves. " In this group of respondents also claimed that the overhaul - it is the duty of the state "for this state and there - to help people," "with what it has to be at our expense," "and then what should the state do?"

Muscovites have stressed that the apartments in the property transferred is a worn-out houses, and even before the privatization of state was in no hurry to repair the house, "privatizing the old houses, unfairly," "'43 live here - there was no repair. Let ever done before for us this shift, "" moved into a house where 50-60 years did not make repairs. Then we were forced privatization. And now, worn out, we need more house and at his own expense to repair, "" very old housing stock went after privatization. "

Among the respondents, there were also those who have already made the repairs the Moscow city government, so they know firsthand what to pay for such work would be very hard, "have already made repairs to the Us were not collected. We would not have pulled that amount," "we already done free of charge. If the money collected from tenants, the repairs will not soon be held. "

The next group believes that the overhaul - it is the duty of the owners (3%). Respondents made the following points: "once privatized apartments - must themselves pay," but, interestingly, have recognized that in practice this is unrealistic because of the low income level. The next argument - the quality of repair and its timeliness: "better themselves, but qualitatively do. And the state must wait for years, but still you will not wait." Finally, people are already doing major repairs on their own: "we have a cooperative house, and so we all pay for themselves."

The third group, slightly greater than the previous (4%), believes that major repairs to be done together with the state: "a reasonable amount you can take with the owners. But the lion's share of the state should pay," "state, plus some people will pay," "50% 50% - this is true. And people are not that expensive, and maintenance free for years not to wait. "

Very similar opinion - the joint repairs were made in the group found it difficult to answer (26%), "if in good condition, it is possible and the owners pay. And if you are already falling apart - need help from the state," "need to work together, depending on the complexity of repair" , "may be feasible participation of residents, but not 100% at our expense." In this group of Muscovites are also confident that people are already making money for major repairs, paying for the receipt of death metal. Respondents who state already repaired homes, but residents did not like it, against the state of repair, but how about - do not know "what's the point in a free repair? We already have one and a half, all start to crumble, balconies cave. And for my money repairing impossible to do, it is very expensive, "" we have done for free, and after a year all fall off the beginning. "
Citizens are not yet ready to bear the full, "the burden of maintaining the property, summing up the intelligence. According to the survey, most Muscovites believe that the repair - it is the duty of the state, since it aired in its own nationals already rather worn-out housing. In this they are right, then said the same thing and the law. at the same time the owners just do not have the money to pay for the work to bring the house in order. "disappointing that a huge number of residents is confident that the overhaul has already paid. This suggests that people are not aware of what formed their housing and utility payments and how the money is spent. But while this message is understandable - of fraud in the housing and communal services and the fabulous profits of utility bosses so much we already know that the assumption that our money is going somewhere is not there, quite naturally, "- concluded the study authors.

Yuri and Paul: Russian in Latvia needs a strong, rather than degrading Russia

Web-based application to the federal weekly "Russian News" Riga.Rosvesty publishes an interview with Peter and Yuri, a member of the party "ZaPcHeL", the text is given below in full:
Do not you think that separation from the mother culture, that is from Russia, the impact on the identity of Russian abroad? They now express themselves tongue-tied, though, and remember his roots, as well as their descendants will remember them for white emigration, but the process of assimilation is inevitable ...
Naturally. It is a fact - tragic, but true. Although at the time of television, radio and the Internet, freedom of movement - separation from the mainland culture and identity gap is immeasurably smaller than in the days of white emigration. But the quality of communication is immeasurably lower.

"Language padonkaff" of the Internet, thank God, comes to naught - is interesting. But often the language of Russian mass media no less monstrous than the "language padonkaff." Only then was a protracted joke, but it - not a joke, a cruel reality. When you read the print Russian author programs "with buddies" - it's dark. Clumsy of phrase, the verbal garbage, absurd interjections, grammatical inconsistencies and logical inconsistencies - this is not something that can help preserve the Russian language in our foreign countries. And will remain Russian.


And the white emigration were Bunin, Kuprin, Nabokov, at worst - Merezhkovsky. It was a real culture exported to the blood - not only in memory. And there is little help. Although the language of the Russian Press in Riga and Berlin - it is really the Russian language for the most part. But who reads the newspapers these days?

The problem of preserving identity - is primarily a problem of competitiveness of identity. If to be Russian - that's cool, it inspires confidence it inspires, - seeking to preserve the identity will be millions. If the image is associated with the Russian helpless and formless politics of their historical homeland, and Russia as the all-powerful government officials and oligarchs, clearly and deliberately burn God-given natural gifts for the country's five-storey yachts and in Courchevel, with technical, organizational and technological backwardness, with the defeat of science and its humiliation of the Russian pop toshnotnoy ubiquitous flocks and mocking comedians, with second-rate television series entirely on disassembly, thieves and bandits - then people will slowly make their choice in favor of a self-identification - with the countries and civilizations, which dictate their will on others and defend their interests and their people not tearful complaints and lamentations about human values, and through sanctions and embargo - for a start. And then the other helper tools. Nobody likes to be insulted and humiliated. Masochism - not the basis for a mass identity.

What is your identity?

Russian. Is the same as identity of my wife, my mother and my two daughters.

What is your Russia?

Like many, but not for all my European counterparts and Russian for some young people - is the space of the native language and culture without any restrictions. What is called the "historical homeland" - Homeland of family history, ancestors - my and my wife's space kinship and friendship ties - on my line - from the Urals to the Altai and Krasnoyarsk, through his wife - from St. Petersburg to Smolensk, and the Volga region. Memory of Childhood - the annual protracted trip in the summer, when making the rounds of all the relatives - from Izhevsk and ending with the Novosibirsk and Tomsk. Siberian pine taiga hills of Southern Ural, Kama, carved frames and roofs of the old wooden skates Tomsk, houses, piles of half-meter larch beams - a three-storey with attic ...

A sense of belonging to the family history and people. Cloud, like the Colosseum, which stands over the endless steppe Ishym - the train goes all day, and a cloud all worth it. This feeling is immeasurably more powerful than words "civilization", "culture", "archetype," "State" - as rightly said in Umberto Eco's "Name of roses" - the words - only signs of signs.

You often speaks of the "European Russian", could you explain what means "European Russian"?

From a purely geographical point of view - is a Russian man living in the European Union.

A good example - a journalist Konstantin Ranks. He was born, as far as I know, in Riga, then lived and worked in Finland, Spain, and then again in Riga, and now again in Finland. It is quite absurd to call him a journalist Latvian, Finnish or Spanish. It is a European Russian journalist. Despite the fact that his ancestors, as far as I know - the Baltic Germans.

Among the Russian-born Latvians now these people very much - it looks like tens of thousands. More accurate data will appear at the end of the year, after the announcement of the Census in Latvia. Then it will be more or less clear how many of our departed the open spaces of Europe - probably forever. While with the Latvians significantly - about 300,000 people, far below the real numbers. Not always those people in the passport should record the "Russian" in the "nationality" - who in general have this record, it is done on special wishes of man. I and all my relatives there.

Now the bulk of the EU truly European Russian - the programmers, journalists, musicians, and students who attend the program "Erasmus". This means that one semester they are studying in universities in Sweden, the second - at the universities of Spain, then their home may be France, Denmark, Scotland. These people feel at home in Riga, and in Brussels and Dublin. Some how I feel at home and another in Tomsk, St. Petersburg, Smolensk, and - as in Barcelona or Venice.

Another slice of European Russian - more than the settled population in Germany, Spain, Latvia, Estonia ... These people are mass occupations, often for long periods living in one country, though more rarely in one place. If in Riga or London to find a job or other source of income is almost always possible, in the province's hard for a long time, and it gets harder. Many of these people living in the EU outside the Baltic countries - immigrants from Russia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan. They psychology differs significantly from the Baltic Russian - they often have not mastered in the host countries for real. But a lot of them - three million in Germany alone. Basically it is Russian and Kazakh-born Germans. They decorated the expanse of shops with German names, "Deli", "Bakery" and "Grocery" nostalgic restaurants and cafes, "Dacha", "Dnipro", "The Yerofeyich." They are not Russian in terms of ethnography and anthropology - but rather licensed Germans. However, their native language - Russian. They are the publishers who are and who the readers and listeners of Russian magazines and radio stations. They are the same - the main visitors of Russian clubs. So perhaps, they can be more precisely defined as, say, the "European of Russian Germans."

Is it true that the Russians absolutely do not understand the problems of Russian-speaking Latvian, considering that Russian resentful of the fact that until now has 300 thousand aliens, and the Russian language does not even have official status? Perhaps, the Russian media overloaded with information about the disgruntled Russian speakers, and to write and that Latvians and Russian are not enemies?

I honestly do not understand the question. What Russians do not understand our problems, it is true when it comes to many ordinary Russians - they often try on everything for themselves, and this is understandable - another life, someone else's problem. In a blatant form it manifests itself among the few Russians who immigrated to Latvia - there are very few, but they are. There is no more heinous assimilated than the immigrants. Based on the fact that they too are Russian, they preach to us - the indigenous Latvians, you need to know the place, behave quietly, "we are here visiting." On this there is one answer - "you're really here visiting, here and pass on, it is desirable to hell, far away in Germany. And sit there quietly. And do not you teach us how to live at home." Although this specific audience, not make the weather.

I do not presume to judge the Russian media for what they need and what is not needed. In my opinion, the best thing that can make the media - is to provide comprehensive, honest and competent information. And since absolutely neutral information is not possible because of the inevitable selection of facts, yet it would be good just to express the position of each media or the author, and not to deceive the public visibility of complete impartiality and objectivity of the material. There is nothing more deceptive than the press, depicting the complete impartiality. Many times convinced. Really open-minded can be a telephone directory, but do not press. No wonder the reader "Guardian" does not expect from a newspaper affectionate attitude toward conservative policies and views, and the "Times" will not glorify homosexuality value or the nationalization of airlines. Everyone knows it, and accept an amended text to the position of the publication. This is an honest editorial policy.

And then, "that Latvians and Russian are not the enemies' - this is about what, exactly? We are not enemies, just get along on the same land without any excesses, as in Northern Ireland. Or in Chechnya. But no friends. Entire ethnic groups can not be friends, only certain people. We are simply fellow countrymen - so work out. Even countrymen. But this is not a reason for joy. Just such is life.

The system of values ​​which civilization you are living?

In the system of global postmodernism, that is full of arbitrariness in the choice of values. This is, firstly, just like saying Zoshchenko medical fact - because postmodernism - the only undeniable reality of a Europe where I am physically. And not only in Europe.

And secondly, I was a student a post-modernist, and when a word was not like this - in the 70s of last century. How to teach the classics of Marxism-Leninism, there is natural materialists, natural mystic, natural Communists, but here I am - a spontaneous post-modernist.

Since there are no normative values ​​of post-modernism is not and can not be, because there reigns complete arbitrariness, for myself, I chose the values ​​of Russian civilization - the civilization of the Orthodox in their core, but not only. This civilization is heavily syncretic.

In keeping with the values ​​of liberalism and the priority of individual freedom, I choose what I want. My perception of the Russian civilization as a phenomenon shared by syncretic Oswald Spengler, Walter Schubart and Lev Gumilev, share and Samuel Huntington, Zbigniew Brzezinski - who respect and even awe mystical, like Spengler, who hopefully, as Schubart, who with hostility, as Zbigniew Brzezinski, and who just stated a fact, as Huntington.

By the Russian civilization, the Eurasian-sounding, belonged to Vladimir the Baptist, Aleksandr Pushkin, Mikhail Lermontov, Lomonosov and Stolypin, and Berdyaev Vernadsky ... In short all the people who know the outside of Russia as the Russian artistic and political elite, as great generals and the pioneers.

This is when it comes to values. And if the realities, I, like all Europeans live in a situation and not in the system of values, globalized and fragmented in Europe - a dying Europe. This anti-liberal Europe liberalistskaya and at the same time. Again, this is just a fact and value has nothing to do with it. Why do I need other people's values, if I have my own there? Although techniques and methods of take, if they are effective - with a totally postmodern disregard for consistency. As claimed the ancient, and followed by Hegel, contradiction is the source of development.

What is a Russian nationalism on the European Russian? Where is the fine line between nationalism and neo-Nazism?

Political Science between nationalism and Nazism is any form is not "fine line" and the whole field - first, aggressive nationalism, chauvinism and then.

However, here are two simple comparison: the first - normal nationalism is akin to the commitment to his family and their relatives. Anyone who loves his mother, his father, his family much more than other people's relatives - just because they own. Similarly, nationalist feels commitment to its people and their language, not to prityazaya superiority over other peoples and languages. This problem simply does not care about it - no one did not compare his mother with a stranger.

But if a man claims that his mother, his family, his people, his language is better, higher and more worthy than others - this is a step toward chauvinism. So far, only a step - is to encourage referees to the demon of state power, to chauvinism, hatched from eggs dragon. One more step - a statement that all other than just not the same, they are not just different - they are worse, not just good - they are evil, and from birth, and hopeless. One more step - the renunciation of personality, willingness to abandon his own "I" delight in self-abandonment for the sake of abstraction "nation" and "national power" - is often the best of intentions. Examples in history are innumerable. But, as in the legend of the student wizard, call the demon is much easier than to get rid of. In order to end parliamentary decay and corruption of politicians, the oligarchy and corruption, to put things simple and understandable to everyone for the good order of the "nation", all neatly becomes a series expansion is canceled and corruption along with his sources - multiparty, parliamentary democracy and the damned. Everything becomes simple, clear and beautiful - one people, one party, one leader, in German - the Fuhrer. And if the peoples, languages, and leaders - more than one problem is easily solved. Cut off all unnecessary things and there are no problems. That's how Nazism is born - from the desire for simplicity and clarity to every order. Hitler promised the Germans order. And they voted for this new order - against torture and freedom of the burden of personal responsibility.

The second analogy. With nationalism, like any feeling, and even with any philosophy - as with alcohol. Drink thirty grams of cognac - cheer up. Fifty to one hundred and - to cheer. Two hundred - and someone on the rampage and pull scandal. A pint of brandy of the same - and many oprostyatsya to bestial condition. All the matter in a dose and sense of proportion. Or in the absence of this feeling.

Mr. Aigars Freimanis commented in an interview to our edition that Zhdanok MEP speaks so much about "European Russian," which became an elusive quantity to its voters, a kind of export product, which was Vaira Vike Freiberga. Russian living in Latvia, do not consider themselves as Europeans, according to Mr. Freimanis.

They believe and what not to believe Latvian Russian, this I know better than Mr. Freimanis. Well, not like Mr. Freimanis Tatiana Zhdanok, but these same Russian re-elected her for the second time in the European Parliament - with a gain votes in Riga on 40%. In accordance with the terms of Mr. Freimanis, enthusiastically exported Tatiana Zhdanok in Brussels and in European politics. This is an issue, including technology.

Those Russian living in Latvia are still not very European feel that is true. Those who felt the well, here we do not live - they live in Europe - mainly in England, Spain, Sweden, from May 1 - in Germany. Those who remained, of course, to understand - is not quite Europe, and Europeans to be difficult here.

At the party congress ZaPcHeL sounding phrases about the unity of the people of Latvia. Does this mean that the party will become a multinational and it will include Latvians, Poles, Ukrainians, that one party has become a reflection of the whole country?

Indeed, there can be no unity in the glaring difference in rights and opportunities - can not be elected to the unity of the outcasts. Only it was not a "peoples" of Latvia, but the "people" of Latvia, which includes potentially all Latvians, regardless of their native language and ethnic origin.

About multicultural party ZaPcHeL - more multinational us to be difficult. In the party are Latvians, Ukrainians, Poles, Jews and Armenians. Staff promotions at the protection of Russian schools under the banner "Russian schools - our Stalingrad" shouting "Russian do not surrender," hundreds of boys with Latvian surnames - from mixed families. They also felt themselves to be Russian. And rightly so. As students of the two Jewish schools in Riga, with Russian language of instruction - he gave them t-shirts, badges and banners with the motto.

However, any party represents only the interests of society - because it's called "batch" - "part" in Latin. We represent the specific interests of those who want to be Russian, wants to have the right to collective identity, and not just be "generally human." Those whose native language is important - specifically Russian. We're not going, we can not and will not be all at once, and anyone in particular - is a profile of the "Center of Concord." And we do not claim a political monopoly - only in the interests of competition in different directions may balance of power. But the balance of power and powerlessness is impossible.

Many believe that the only party ZaPcHeL bites association "Consent Center" instead of making common cause together. In addition, the party does not even attempt to unite all the small Russian parties. Does this mean that the Russian community is an internal split? Or is it explained by the fact that other parties are "Russian", and the party ZaPcHeL - pro-European contact and therefore can not be?

This is becoming amusing. What is the general case, we can do with a party that just showed his attitude to the Russian language and to Russian voters? At the vote in the Diet for increased penalties and stricter language rules and knowledge of Latvian in private business and in Russian schools?

That is, in fact, all of the obligations of the "Center of Concord" in relation to Russian voters as set forth in the program the CA, the third section:

"Adopt the agreement, which aims - inter-ethnic trust and the foundation of which - a convincing expression of respect for the interests, values ​​and historical experiences of all ethnic groups."

Truly a remarkable statement of obligations of the Party to the voters - the promise of "a convincing expression of respect for" worthy of the pen by Ilf and Petrov. A direct analogy with an episode from the book of Francois Rabelais' Gargantua and Pantagruel "- to pay the ringing of coins for the opportunity to dine smell of soup. What was the subject of co-operation? In the "agreement on a convincing expression of respect"?

And what do we have all the other parties of Russian? Here is the CA made it clear to the mouth of the Nile Ushakov in the newspaper "Latvijas Aviso" a couple of years ago, with the callout in the title of the interview: "We - not the Russian party." Openly and honestly. Maybe the next generation of ingenuity Yuri Zhuravlev - was "Dzimtene," now that a social-democratic-vseobschechelovecheskoe? I can answer when I know what the Russian party.

Possibly occur. Actually, it was the aim of Russian foreign policy structures and Russian news channels operating in Latvia. Only Estonia is not, and there were no real Russian parties, especially - European Russian parties. There were small groups of colleagues, associates, companions for several common problems. And yet - all Russian political groups in Estonia, it's hard to call them parties, fully guided by opinion "from Russia." It can not be called "European Russian party." So still time - we in Latvia.

The price of housing, established by a state program allows you to implement in Arkhangelsk

The price of housing, installed state, can not implement state programs in Arkhangelsk. This is the conclusion of the Arkhangelsk oblsobraniya MPs during a regular session. Recall, the state Approved housing prices in the Arkhangelsk region at the level of 28.5 thousand rubles per 1 sq. meter area. Based on this amount shall be paid the funds to buy housing on the various programs.
When considering housing for the military, the chairman of the Budget Committee Bralnin Andrew said: "Today in Arkhangelsk on 28.5 thousand for 1 square py meter housing there. The state is already faced with the fact that the money allocated to housing - such as orphans - but to fulfill law is impossible. Housing for money does not buy et. so it must be built. "While in the region that experience virtually no, no and regulatory framework to actively build housing on public funds.

Also confirmed the existence of the problem and the mayor of Arkhangelsk Viktor Pavlenko. According to him, moreover, that at the price of 28.5 thousand rubles per 1 sq. km. meter of housing can not buy this release yet, and too few resources. So, just to relocate people out of dilapidated housing to 91 million rubles, and allocated for these purposes, only about 70 million rubles. "The required amount of housing to buy for the money, we can not."


Oblsobraniya deputy Nikolai Kalistratov, former CEO of "Sevmash" adding that already have a problem with housing for employees. "Yes, the housing should be built. Putin instructed to allocate funds for housing construction workers" Sevmash ", but the law joint stock companies may not receive the money and dispose of them. So now the question arose of how to implement the initiative of Putin."
