Then what? We hang the city’s map on the wall and there we mark all the places where usually over 200 people gather. Accordingly if this is an institute, there has to be several such places (campus, faculty). In other words we have to control each of these places. And we have to mark each of these places with a red flag. In my opinion there has to be not less than 150 such flags for a city like Orel or Kursk. And then the person who stays after this meeting and considers that he can work in this organization for now, he removes the red flag and puts a blue one instead and writes his name. And this means that we have a sympathizer in this place. Now these people in the not-yet-created organization are called commissars. And the very first task we have before us is to gather commissars not later than by the end of February 2005.”
Yakemenko was expatiating on this for a long time, showing a suspiciously gloomy sense of humor. Here for example: “It’s very simple: we can catch nine drug addicts in Kursk, hang them at night along the road on a birch with the inscription ‘Drug addict. Was hung by the Nashi for using drugs’. On the following day people will know that we did it. But this is an extreme nonsense that does not suit us. There has to be a group that seriously works on these issues. /…/ Three times a week, on a facultative basis for now, for three hours you will have courses that will teach you: public relations, creation, the bases of leadership, rhetoric, technologies of directing mass actions… /…/ And now I’m talking with those of you who will be a potential commissar. You have to go to a training camp in Seliger. Two weeks in the summer, in July. You will be 150 people from different cities.” Then the anti-fascist Yakemenko exposes one-hundred-percent fascist ideas and desires: “I have made such a camp, for only 400 people though, on Seliger and there was an obligatory activity called ‘morning jogging’. /…/ Since Seliger is a beautiful place a lot of fat people go there. In cars, for fishing or for something else and naturally, when young boys, these 400 people, start to run on the road, the cars nervously hunk to them so that they leave the road and unfortunately they leave. But I hope that when you will be 3 000 people and maybe wearing t-shirts with ‘Yield’ written on the back, nobody will hunk you; they are no fools. I think everybody will stop and wait while you run on one side, then on the other, for two hours and there will already be forty cars standing, but they’ll have to wait.”
And this is how Yakemenko depicted their future to the students on February 10th 2005: “You have learned the technologies of leading the masses, you can lead people, in 2-3 years you have created the most powerful organization, in comparison to which Komsomol is a child’s play and sucks. Let’s suppose that you have received a significant quantity of harshly led people – 200 or 300 thousand – this is a huge number and 10 thousand are enough for each city, there were 6 thousand in Georgia in the Kmara organization, which removed the legally elected president Shevarnadze.” Then Yakemenko depicts the situation of a Russian Maydan. Spring 2008.
“Let’s suppose America supposes that they will gather about 50 thousand people who will be able to block some squares in Moscow and decide of the outcome of the elections in their favor. It means that we have to show them 200 thousand. We have to convince them that there won’t be a civil war.” Then Yakemenko transfers his thoughts to the Ukrainian Maydan. And says very frank things, considering that he says them on February 10th and on January 29th there was an attack on the NBP headquarters, in which soccer fans recruited by the Nashi took part: “ If I had to solve the question on Maydan, considering the general lack of will, I would have solved it very simply- I would have contacted my colleagues from Spartak’s fans movement (notice “my colleagues”, Yakemenko is not a soccer fan but he speaks about the fans – Nashi’s comrades-in-arms. - E. L.), they would have gathered 5 000 sympathizers with these blue plastic chairs that they use to fight in the stadium and we would have brought them to Kiev and with these blue chairs they would have driven out those 100 thousand who came to Maydan to the Dnieper River and they would have jumped on these blocks of ice on the Dnieper in their white trousers like polar bears.” Yakemenko told this in front of his people not expecting that journalists would record him; otherwise he would have abstained from racist and fascist statements. Moskovsky Komsomoletz is a yellow newspaper and although sometimes it executes the orders of the special services, however it can’t refuse a sensation.
Yakemenko continues to seduce the students with Dolce Vita pictures of their future life: “ Then in 2008 the Russian president will negotiate with you. You will receive the right to elect anyone you want. You will receive a mandate for power; you will be able to have any post you want. Instead of the 450 idiots who siege in the State Duma, 450 young people, poorly educated, 23-25 years old, so what.” Such a statement can be clearly defined as fascist, the young and uneducated against the old, the rich and the wealthy is the favorite subject of the early revolutionary German National Socialism and of the Italian fascism. Was Vladislav Surkov realizing this when he started to execute his project? Yakemenko was realizing how it could end. I cite the same article in MK: “ It will have an interesting end: I will be in The Hague next to Slobodan Milosevich, obviously as a theoretician, Kursk and Orel leaders will be in prison.” In other words Yakemenko, realizing the magnitude of the project, also realizes its illegality. An international tribunal – this is what he sees in perspective and not only a mandate for power as an alternative to the future. “In 2012 you will have to elect your president. Here is a plan I’m proposing to you.” Then he promises the students will be protected by the president, in the following expressions: “I make sure, while you’re still weak and disorganized, that the local power doesn’t harm you. If you will get in trouble we will solve these problems. The president knows about the creation of this organization. I’m telling you, the country lays its hopes on you. The president is ready to risk in order to give this to you. You are given millions of dollars for this!”
In other words already on February 24th the country received important information from Vasily Yakemenko about the fact that the president approved the creation of a youth organization proposing to use methods punishable by the tribunal in The Hague for the leaders and by detention for the participants, i.e. a criminal organization.
On March 1st 2005 Yakemenko sent a statement about the creation of the Nashi youth movement to the media. It makes sense to reproduce it here in its totality: “On the eve of the 60th anniversary of Russia’s Victory in the Great Patriotic War several regional youth organizations decided to create a political movement. The Walking Together and I personally supported this healthy reaction to the growing popularity in the pseudo-intellectual circles of the political corrupter of youth Limonov and his wannabe nazis. Khakamada and her Committee-2008, the youth Yabloko, Berezovsky, Makashov and other amoral individuals have gathered under the Hitlerian flags of social-nationalism that the National-Bolsheviks wave. For us, the open statements and the impunity of the carriers of the XX century’s plague, which killed 20 millions of Russians, Tatars, Belarusians and Jews, is a personal offense. We will put an end to the union of oligarchs and anti-Semites, Nazis and liberals. In order to solve this problem we are starting a new project – the Nashi youth movement. No pasaran! Victory will be ours!
