Who and why hates Olympic Games, RZD and Vladimir Yakunin

I’d like to tell you who Boris Nemtsov is and why he attacks the “Olympics in the Subtropics” so maliciously. And what he has against OJSC “RZD” (Russian Railways) and it’s head, Vladimir Yakunin.

Let’s start with Yakunin’s words. "I'm very offended that the closer we get to the opening of the Olympics, the more hysteria around Russia becomes inflamed in the Western media… There's not a word about the quality of the Olympic facilities, about the fact that the level of readiness of the Olympic infrastructure has no analogues in the world… It touches Russian Railways directly as the company occupies almost the central position in the flood of discrediting information. And the truth is that Russian Railways has performed its task on assigned objects, fulfilled the investment program for the North-Caucasian railway in the shortest possible time. The quality of this work has been highly appreciated by the International Olympic Committee experts and professional constructors, which was marked by rewarding us the prestigious International Tunneling Association award in 2012".


I share Yakunin’s discontent, first of all as a citizen of the Russian Federation. It is sickening to see the liberal journalists and the opposition activists replicating the reports about the corruption in Sochi under the authorship of a notorious fibber Alexey Navalny (whose brazen lie sometimes surprises even the liberals) and a misanthrope Andrei Malgin, who is famous as the most mendacious blogger in Runet (Russian internet).



Theoretically, it’s not difficult to understand the swindler Navalny and the misanthrope Malgin: they have been shouting for ages about the horrors of the Putin’s “bloody regime”, the transcendental level of corruption and the decay of our ruling establishment. And now there is a chance the whole world will see they might have been right.


Well, firstly, it’s not that bad on the Sochi Olympics as they would like it to be. Secondly, despite all the threats and exposes published by the international media with the reference to the homegrown unmaskers, it is valid to say that the Sochi Olympic games has the quorum.


They were not able to disrupt the Olympics. Now they will try to spoil this landmark international event. And here is the main mistake of the guys who shout about the corruption in Russia. The matter is that people in other countries don’t separate «Putin’s regime» from Russia and the Russians in the whole. And when the Western media publishes the picture of toilets in Sochi or the menu which offers «biscuits in the ass», they make fun not of Putin, Yakunin and the United Russia. The make fun of the ordinary Russians.


You may try to explain an American or a German or some other foreigner, that the “regime” and the people in Russia is not the same thing. They won’t understand you for sure. They have a sound argument: “you have chosen this government yourself and you have to be responsible for it”.
To some extent, they are right: it is not only the government to blame, as the ordinary russians are the executives! It was not Putin who was involved in sabotage in the Olympic village – broke the partitions in the bathrooms, printed idiotic price lists!


And before I begin to speak about the “Russian” lying prophets, you should size up an obvious thing: when Malgin, Navalny, Nemtsov and others throw in a pack of lies about stupid blunders and the corruption on the Olympics, thus they insult the whole country, the whole Russian nation. 


To be continued…
