Activists call for Russian autonomy in Estonia

Leaflets have been distributed in Estonia calling on the Russian ethnic minority to hold a referendum and create a territorial autonomy in the Baltic state. That’s according to ‘Vesti Dnya’ newspaper.

 

Authors of the leaflets, an organisation called “The Union of South Westerners of New Generation” suggest Russians who live in Estonia should be registered and given IDs. Then a referendum on creating a Russian autonomy should be held. They believe these actions should be combined with European parliamentary election campaign.

 

The organisation has already found a place for the autonomy and published it on the leaflet with the Estonian map. The South Westerners marked the borders of the suggested autonomy at the North of the country which includes several districts and a large part of Lake Chudskoye.

 

In 2007, when the union was created, it had 30 members. However, that number has decreased since then.

 

Back to the USSR

 

Earlier, two farms in south-eastern Estonia declared the creation of a Soviet republic. They’ve already got support from a regional Communist organisation based in Russia’s northern capital, St. Petersburg. A delegation of activists from the party has already visited the newly-created ‘Soviet state’.

 

Now the collection of signatures under documents is underway. Later activists are planning to apply to Russia for the recognition of the Estonian Soviet Republic.

 

According to the official website of “Communists of Petersburg”, initially the decision to breakaway from the ‘bourgeois Estonia’ was made by an ‘ordinary peasant’ Andres Tamm. Later he was joined by a woman from a neighbouring farm – Aine Saar.

 

“We- ordinary peasants – were against the relocation of the monument to a Soviet soldier [bronze Soldier in the Estonian capital]. But who is listening to us in Tallin? Big money and advisors from Brussels run the show there,” she is quoted as saying.

 

“The EU doesn’t care about what is happening here – fascist parades, militarization of the country. No, my farm and Tallinn are going different ways! I want to live in socialism and be in friendship with Russia,” Aine added.

 

The rival villagers have formed a government and a militia in order to protect the borders of their ‘state’ where boundary posts have already been set.

 

Russia Today

 

 

Note: After showing it's power to the world in the recent war, Russia is being recognized as a world power not only by Abxazia and Osetia but also among those who need the help of the power.

I found out today that on the first day of the attack in defending Osetia, Russia immediately destroyed Georgian Military Air Base and their War factories. Hence making sure that Georgia understands the seriousness of the issue. Neither Georgia nor Russia would talk about this until today when Russia released the information and there has been no arguments whatsoever!

Cuba thanks Moscow for quick help after disaster

The Cuban leadership representatives have expressed gratitude to Russia for effective help in overcoming the aftermath of the hurricanes that caused great damage to Cuba. It came as a start of their meeting in the Council of State of Cuba (CSC) with the Russian governmental delegation led by Vice President Igor Sechin.

 

The delegation arrived in Cuba on Monday with a working visit.

 

“We are grateful for the help, and especially for the quickness of this help,” CSC Vice President Carlos Lage said.

 

The Cuban side also said they hope for Russia’s help, after it has already sent them four planes with emergency humanitarian aid.

 

Russia is to supply food and medicine to Cuba as the island recovers after the devastating hurricane Ike. Moscow is also sending electricity generating equipment.

 

And a number of Russian energy and construction companies are said to be ready to assist in restoring the island's infrastructure and enterprises.

 

More than 100,000 Cuban houses and factories were damaged when three hurricanes have recently hit the area, Ike being the most disastrous one.
