Nalvany as Opponent to Putin has "Problems"

01/03/2021

The anarchist newspaper Freedom republishes a statement this week from the Federation of Russian Anarchists and Anarcho-Syndicalists in which the group distances itself from both the tyrannical regime of Vladimir Putin, but also the main opposition movement of Alexander Nalvany.  They say “We, anarchists and anarcho-syndicalists, consider it completely unacceptable for ourselves to take any part in political shows organized by supporters of the right-wing populist Navalny, who is sadly “famous” for his openly nationalist, anti-immigrant, anti-Caucasian and anti-Semitic statements. To march in the ranks of the demonstrations they convened would mean – regardless of any excuses or “explanations” – to turn into the back of one of the political gangs waging a dirty and unprincipled struggle for power.   We, as anarchists, believe that both the current authoritarian regime in the Kremlin, which became the successor of Yeltsin’s neoliberal clique, and the opposing group headed by Navalny, which is now seeking to seize the leadership of the entire mass of disaffected, are just the spokesmen for the interests of the country’s true rulers – the dominant Oligarchy and its “Iron Heel”.   The lengthy statement is published on the website https://freedomnews.org.uk/russian-anarcho-syndicalists-neither-navalny-...
