#109 Baltic Republican Party among Ethnic national movements

You won’t understand Kremlin comrades. The Kremlin has closed the Party in 2003. Now in 2024, they themselves officially have revived one of the oldest Party in modern Russia, but labelled us as "extremist organization". They did recognize, that they were unable to close the Party. We are "guilty" for having free political opinion. 

There is an article in Russian about Kremlin labeling the minority national organizations as "extremists". #30 Baltic Republican Party.

Hey, Kremlin guys, stop snorting cocaine! 🙂

P.S. Idiocracy of Kremlin. The Kremlin has labeled a world wide LGBTQ community as "extremist organization" too.

Hostages and political prisoners in Russia.

We are glad that American hostages, who were held in Russian prisons are returned back home. Some Russian political prisoners are free now, thanks to American and European administrations. There are still lots of political prisoners in Russia including Mikhail Feldman, Alexander Orshulevich and Vyacheslav Popov from Konigsberg.

In Russia’s Kaliningrad, isolation and diminished threat to NATO

For years, there has been agitation among some fringe elements in Kaliningrad to form an autonomous Baltic Republic and possibly secede from Russia. The Baltic Republican Party was founded explicitly for that purpose in 1993 before being dissolved by Russia in 2003. One of its members, Rustam Vasiliev, continues to champion the group’s cause, even after immigrating from Kaliningrad to the United States nearly a decade ago. He envisions Kaliningrad as a Europe-leaning republic with Königsberg, the city’s former German name, as its capital.

Perhaps fallout from the Ukraine war could set the stage for such a split, he said. “The region is like a heavy suitcase without a handle for the Kremlin,” Vasiliev said. “It is inconvenient to carry, but the Kremlin is too greedy to drop it and walk away. What will be in the future only God knows.”
