“On May 9, at the Brotherly (graves), this carnival in all seriousness chanted “Comrade Stalin – hurray!” and marched under the flag of the Uzbek SSR. Hooray for the killer of Kadiri, Fitrat and thousands of our compatriots?” he wrote.

Nikita Makarenko reminded officials responsible for the security of Uzbekistan that “one of the architects of the war in Ukraine, the Russian nationalist Igor Girkin (Strelkov) and his entire company were also such reenactors from the very beginning, and at first they walked around harmlessly in historical costumes and with toy weapons, and then they picked up a real one”.

The blogger also asked the Minister of Preschool and Primary Education to carefully “monitor school principals, and in some cases prevent children from dressing up in Soviet military uniforms and decorating schools with symbols of Russian murderers and fascists – St. George ribbons”.

“The only good thing is that there are no more than a couple of hundred rabid fans of Stalin,” he concluded.

An interesting fact is that the Tashkent city administration, the capital’s department of internal affairs and other responsible departments have not yet published official information about this march.

In 2019, residents of the Sergeli district gathered on the streets and complained about rising prices for “affordable” housing. Then representatives of the Ministry of Justice of Uzbekistan immediately recalled the administrative and criminal liability for holding unauthorized rallies, street marches and demonstrations. This time there are no reminders.

In addition, recently a video was circulated on social networks, in which law enforcement officers detain a young man with a ribbon in the colors of the flag of Uzbekistan and the inscription “Graduate” in the market of the Kamashi district. Later, the PGO recognized the administrative case against a young man who wore a ribbon in the colors of the state flag as illegal.
