The authorities tried to hinder it in every possible way, and therefore the venue was far from the city center - in Yu.A. Gagarin park . The application for the event was submitted by the Simferopol city branch of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, and our Crimean organization of the AUCPB took part in it.
The "AUCPB" banner was met with interest not only by local media, but also by representatives of the police, which hovered around the protesters in numerous numbers, both in uniform and "plain clothes". Moreover, the police special forces appeared to be there by accident - they pretended to be sportsmen doing morning training. There were dog handlers with police dogs. They were not just a team.
More than a hundred copies of AUCPB leaflets were distributed into the hands of Crimeans, including people from Sevastopol and as well as Belogorians, who turned out to be at a rally. A lot of journalists and ordinary photographers approached the representatives of the AUCPB, taking photos from various angles of the banner and the Bolsheviks.
There were interesting episodes. So, one of the decently dressed citizens approached and asked who is the leader of our party. The answer is that it is N.A. Andreeva satisfied him. Immediately he stated that he knew her personally, and "was at events in Leningrad." And he said that the head of state also considers Nina Alexandrovna as an authoritative politician.
Another point. At the event there were no more than 300 people, most of them pensioners. That target audience, young people and middle-aged citizens made up less than a third. Therefore, the goal of the event was not achieved. It was stated that at the end of the month there will be a repeat rally, already more massive in the center of the city. Be that as it may, the Crimean organization will continue to conduct explanatory work among the population.
