“Islamic revolution and persecution”: filmmaker Sokurov voiced the problems of Russia to Putin

Russia is faced with a constitutional crisis, when real life and the text of the Basic Law diverge, says film director Alexander Sokurov. He voiced this opinion to Vladimir Putin at a meeting of the Council for the Development of Civil Society and Human Rights.

Sokurov pointed to “the terrible politicization of life in the country”, “the politicization of the army’s law enforcement agencies” and, at the same time, “the apolitical nature of the ruling party.”

“Uncertainty in the separation of church from state is not a solution to this constitutional problem. Approaching the Islamic Revolution. A revolution can be prevented, but not defeated. It is necessary to reanimate the trade union movement in the country, the untouchability of trade union leaders, trade union members, “added the director.

He pointed out that it is necessary to restore officers’ meetings in the army, create a civil defense service to work out scenarios in case of disasters, proposed to limit multi-storey housing construction in the north of the country and in Siberia, where it is necessary to create shelters in case of loss of electricity, heat and other types of energy.

“We need an active, strong opposition in different political directions. We need to ban censorship. The Constitution is still alive. We must stop the persecution of public non-profit organizations We must be a united and selfless people. But the state, it seems to me, did not withstand the preliminary check during the covid. The population did not completely believe the state. Are we going to meet the climate threat when we chase young people around the country who have awakened conscience and social pain? It is rightly said that the people are those who think for the rest of the population. It is no longer possible to transform the people into the population. This is a constitutional problem, “Sokurov said.

Earlier, Putin criticized the words of the director that Belarus and other countries are on allowance from Russia.
