Day of the Prisoner Grigory Pasko, journalist Если Вы хотите прочитать оригинал данной статьи на русском языке, нажмите сюда. On the website Grani.ru, the writer Eduard Limonov, who heads the National-Bolshevik Party (which has been banned in Russia), wrote an article about how in July in Moscow there took place a congress of political prisoners. In the words of Limonov, around a hundred political prisoners gathered. “To the congress came not many guests”, writes Limonov, “inasmuch as we did not call many. However, honest and direct, appeared the lawyers Mikhail Trepashkin (himself a politzek in the recent past) and Sergey Belyak”. Both with Trepashkin and with Belyak I am acquainted. With Limonov I have not yet had the chance – we are acquainted with one another “in absentia”. If one is to believe another website – www.politzeki.ru – then to the number of political prisoners I also belong. Why they did not call me to the congress – I don’t know. That’s not a question to me. Of course I would have gone. Not because I share all the views of the natsbols, but because I also consider them, the convicted National-bolsheviks, to be political prisoners of modern Russia. It is incomprehensible why they did not call to the congress Sergey Kovalev, Alexander Nikitin, Valeriya Novodvorskaya and others who had been persecuted among others for political motives as well.
