The head of the federal political committee of Yabloko, Grigory Yavlinsky, announced the decision not to run for State Duma deputies from the party in the September elections.
The party reported that the politician will nevertheless ” take an active part in the election campaign.”
During the pre-election congress of Yabloko, Yavlinsky said that the federal part of the party’s list for the elections may consist of one person – it is planned to nominate chairman Nikolai Rybakov.
The CEC earlier announced that the parliamentary elections on a single voting day will be held for three days – from September 17 to 19. According to the law, parties must approve the lists of their candidates at face-to-face congresses within 25 days after the publication of the presidential decree on the appointment of elections.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has approved the country’s national security strategy. The decree comes into force from the date of its signing. The previous version of the strategy was approved by Putin’s decree on December 31, 2015.
The document says, in particular, that Russia has demonstrated its stability to the whole world and proved its ability to resist sanctions pressure. The work on reducing dependence on imports in key sectors of the economy continues. And the level of food and energy security has also increased.
The strategy also states that NATO’s testing of the possibility of using nuclear weapons increases military threats against Russia. Meanwhile, destructive forces in the Russian Federation and abroad are trying to use objective difficulties to undermine the situation in Russia.
The National Security Strategy of the Russian Federation is the basic document of strategic planning. It defines the national interests and strategic national priorities of Russia, as well as goals, objectives and measures in the field of domestic and foreign policy. These measures are aimed at strengthening national security, as well as ensuring the country’s sustainable development in the long term.

Recall that during the” Direct Line”, Vladimir Putin said that the first president of Russia did not transfer power to him. The Russian leader stressed that he got it in accordance with the Constitution – the final decision was made by citizens.
According to Satarov, Yeltsin’s announcement meant that the executive branch, including the presidential administration and the government, would work for Putin. At the same time, the competition in the elections was very large.
“It was a normal election campaign,” said Satarov, whose words are quoted URA.RU.
The former adviser to Yeltsin also added that the position of acting president of Russia under the Constitution gave Putin a certain advantage. It cannot be said that he was an “ordinary” participant in the elections.

Former US President Donald Trump said that the country is no longer a region of fair and open elections. The former leader said this, commenting on the incident at the Democratic Party primaries in New York. There, during the election of a candidate for mayor of the city, 135 thousand test votes were mistakenly counted.
Trump believes that this is direct proof that the results of the 2020 presidential election were rigged. The politician again criticized his opponents from the Democratic Party. In his opinion, political opponents are setting up prosecutors against the Republicans. Their goal is to “steal the elections”.
On November 3 last year, presidential elections were held in the United States. At the same time, people voted for members of the House of Representatives of the Congress and re-elected a third of senators. Due to the pandemic, it was allowed to vote by mail. Even then, Donald Trump criticized this system, assuring that this is the best way to rig the results. As a result, Trump’s opponent Joe Biden won the election. Trump tried to protest the results of the vote, but lost the courts.

“All NATO ships that come to the doors of Russia are waiting for death,” another user added.
One of the readers expressed the opinion that at the very doors of Russia, therefore, it does not need ships, “coast guard missiles are enough.”
“NATO is really playing with fire! Well, NATO is just a toy of the United States. Keep playing, and you will be destroyed, ” said one of the readers.
Another user used a metaphor: “a pack of dogs barked at a bear, he bared his teeth, and the dogs, with their tails between their legs, ran away under the wing of the patron.” In addition, one of the residents of China advised Russia to take advantage of the chance to “sink half of the NATO fleet”, because “an opportunity rarely falls, and the moment is right.”
“What did Putin do with a Sleeping Joe during a closed-door meeting in Geneva? This forced NATO to make such desperate efforts to somehow hurt Russia!”, one of the users wondered.

Депутат Рады Олег Семинский отказал русским жителям Украины в правах человека. На своей странице в Facebook представитель правящей партии “Слуга народа” разместил пост, в котором заявил о начале восстановлении справедливости. Он подчеркнул, что так как по новому закону “О коренных народах Украины” русские к таковым не относятся, то и рассчитывать на права человека и основные свободы, предусмотренные в Конституции, не смогут.
Позднее Семинский удалил пост. Однако его скриншот уже сохранил и распространил другой депутат Рады – Вадим Рабинович. Оппозиционер снабдил пост резким комментарием, взятым из Сети.
Ранее 325 депутатов Верховной Рады проголосовали за новый закон о “коренных народах Украины”. Согласно документу, коренными признаются те этнические общности, которые сформировались на территории Украины и не имеют собственного государства за пределами страны. Отдельно в законе прописаны те народы, которые сформировались на территории Крыма. Это крымские татары, караимы и крымчаки.
Документ был инициирован президентом страны Владимиром Зеленским. Но глава Украины новый закон пока не подписал.

“99% of the girls present here are in favor of going in full dress uniform… Therefore, I think it would be better for us to think, discuss the issue now here with the girls, to hear, let’s say, the reverse side, ” the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine noted.
Taran and Khomchak suggested that the cadets, as an experiment, suggested that they march in high-heeled shoes at the Independence Day parade, and after that they will make a final decision about the parade uniform.
