When appropriate expression "judge biased "? We just finished resent the fact that Vladimir Putin sent squad police broke up a rally with Garry Kasparov in St. Petersburg, and behold, our outrage mitigated as soon as the Estonian government is sending thousands of beautiful armed police to disperse demonstrators Russian the monument fallen for the liberation of Tallinn from Nazi occupation.
Putin , in this case, no one was killed. In Tallinn however, already have two bodies, possibly three, and three hundred arrests. But no one especially not jerks. I mean, no one in Europe and none in the U.S.. Print is silent, and our television ignores Tallinn , while savoring the stories in the spirit of " innumerable hordes of riot police but against peaceful demonstrators".
In one case, European Estonia in the other Russia. Are our European principles are not universal? The official representative of the European Commission's limited statement that the case " outside the competence of Europe." However, the authorized representative of Tallinn in the European Commission, Mr Sim Calas - is among the supporters of the idea of destroying monument to the fallen in the struggle against Nazism Russian (and Estonians). And I would ask the European Commission, because this or not, that among the values that underpin Europe is anti-fascism? It seemed to me that he is there, but maybe I was wrong. Why is such that in a European country, namely, Estonia, demolished antifascist monument (which still render homage Russian, but Russian does not have contributed to a decisive defeat of the Nazi?) at the While placed at least three personal monument to Estonian citizens, volunteered for military service in the 20 th SS Division , which opposed the coalition of democratic nations and the Soviet Union?
So, in honor of Estonian Nazis. And Europe has nothing to say?
curious silence in the face of apparent cold-blooded provocation against the Estonian government Russian living in Estonia, where about 280 thousand of total population 1 million and 300 thousand people. Perhaps this reflects the desire of the majority of Estonians? It turns out there: poll showed that for the transfer of the monument voted only 37% of Estonian citizens.
astonished, however, the only one who knows what would of majority of Russian in Estonia Estonian citizens, but - not stateless people without a homeland. In other words - the Europeans, but not citizens of Estonia. It's a shame that Brussels continues to endure. And now we praise Nazism. Long live the democratic Europe!

Giulietto Chiesa, Member of the European Parliament
When is it appropriate to speak about a biased judgment? We have just finished to rebel against the decision of Vladimir Putin to send the police to scatter the demonstration in St. Petersburg with the attendance of Garry Casparov . But our indignation softens as the Estonian government sends about a thousand of well armed policemen to supress the demonstration of russians around the monument to those who died in liberation of Tallinn from fascist occupancy.
Putin didn’t kill anyone in this particular case. As for Tallinn, we do have two, may be three, dead and three hundreds arrested. But nobody really cares . I mean nobody in Europe and USA . Our media keeps silent and TV don't mention Tallinn while eagerly showing reports like ‘crowds of OMON against peaceful demonstrators’.
On the one hand – European Estonia, on the other hand – Russia. I thought, european principles were universal, weren't they? The official representative of the European Commission commented parsimoniously that these affairs are ‘outside the European reference’. However the estonian representative in the European Commission Mr. Siim Kallas is considered to be among those who standed for idea of destroing the monument to those Russians (and Estonians) who fell fighting against fascism. I’d like to ask the European Commission, if antifascism is among the key European values? I thought it was, but maybe I was wrong. How come that in the European country – in Estonia – a memorial which is supposed to honour those who fighted against fascism,- Estonians and Russians (who still were those who made the determinative contribution to fascism defeat, didn’t they?). At the very same time at least three peronal momuments are being set up, namely to the estonian citizens, who volunteered in the 20 th SS division, which came out against the allied powers.
So, the monuments to memorize Estonian fascists. And Europe has nothing to say?
This silence is curious in the face of evident provocative acts of the Estonian government against Russians living in Estonia, who amount to over 280.000 from 1.3 million of the whole Estonian population. Maybe this is what the majority of the Estonian people want? But it seems not to be the reason: the public survey shows that only 37% of Estonian citizens supported monument transferal.
But it would surprise only those who don’t know that the majority of Russians living in Estonia are not the Estonian citizens, but people without citizenship and motherland. In other words – Europeans, but not Estonian citizens. What a shame that Brussels keeps tolerating that. And now we do praise fascism. Long live the democratic Europe!
