Sobesednik, Jun 3 2015
The organizers of the scientific session “Lessons of Novorossiya for the future of Russia” tied disruption conference broadcast censorship. On Jun 3 at the Central House of Journalists held a scientific-practical session “Lessons of Novorossiya for the future of Russia.” The organizers announced that to see the live broadcast via the Internet will be able to attend, but an hour after the start of the conference the moderator of the site smotri.com blocked the broadcast of the event. According to the organizers, the reason for the block could be the topic of the scientific-practical session:
You see, here speak enough common things that probably need to not listen to anyone. We say that something needs to change and offer options out of the situation. It certainly can not please everyone.
There’s no full transcript of the speech Strelkov gave (yet), but here is a synopsis:
Igor Strelkov: Russia could be defeated in Transnistria

Scientific expert session “Lessons of Novorossiya for the future of Russia”
Today, Jun 3, the leader of the movement “Novorossia” Igor Strelkov made a statement about the catastrophic situation in Transnistria to the scientific expert session “Lessons of Novorossiya for the future of Russia.” He again stated that “Russia is at war” and, in the Donbass, there was a second point of tension: Transnistria. In connection with the blockade by Ukraine, the Russian Federation there is on the verge of another defeat. The leader of the “Novorossia” gave a critical assessment of the actions of the Russian authorities. He said:
We have a completely opaque foreign policy. We don’t know what actually wants the President and the Kremlin. We are constantly on Ukraine political conduct secretive special operation instead of clearly and openly show their position. As we vary, the Ukrainian authorities (and behind them Pindostan) actively and consistently apply. Transnistria: the next stage. Pindostan continues to pursue its insidious Anglo-Saxon policy, giving behind-the-scenes promises, but in reality provoking Ukraine on the collision with Russia.
Exacerbating the situation in Transnistria, they try to involve in the conflict with Russia, Moldova and Romania. The latter has ultranationalist elite and powerful army. The goal of Pindostan is to incite the bear (Russia) by means of dogs. The bear is strong, but dogs can fight. Russia, according to the view of the radical patriots, has completely lost the initiative. It’s pursuing an ostrich policy. On Russian television, the problem of Transnistria is not mentioned at all. The Transnistrian Republic is still not recognized. Then there is the fact that Russia recognizes the integrity of Moldavia, which means that the country may demand to withdraw Russian troops from her territory. So the ground is prepared for the diplomatic defeat of Russia, the probability of which is very high. There are conditions under which the withdrawal of Russian troops will be inevitable. This would be the surrender of Russia on this front. Indecision Russia, from the point of view of its opponents, says it is weak and opens the way for more aggressive action.
Saakashvili was appointed Governor of Odessa region to fulfil the main goal of the blockade of Transnistria. This is an energetic man, and he will stop at nothing in carrying out his task. He will block the supply of this Republic, which is only possible through the Odessa region. He can arrange a border provocation. On the territory of Transnistria, troops will block the Russian army at the point of dislocation and will besiege, not attacking, but harassing and gradually bringing about a situation akin to starvation. An airlift to break through the blockade impossible. Not taking response, Russia will inevitably fail the defeat. Our army will force them to care. At some stage in the diplomatic game, Russia will impose something similar to Minsk-3, only on Transnistria, with the loss of our positions. They boil the frog slowly. The frog will continue to cook. The foreign policy fluctuations of the Russian Federation will lead to further defeat upon other positions.
So says the hero of Novorossiya, Igor Strelkov, again urging the Russian authorities to take decisive action on geopolitical important milestone. For Russia, according to this policy strategist, there are two options: surrender, a long protracted, and then follow the Yugoslav scenario, or sharp but appropriate response is the complete defeat of the “junta” and the liberation of Ukraine. After that, Transnistria will be released.
Igor Strelkov: “I do not see in Russia the conditions for fair political career”

Strelkov answers questions at the conference
The former head of the Ministry of defence DND Igor Strelkov was sitting in the Presidium of the scientific-expert session “Lessons of Novorossiya for the future of Russia” and quite leniently treated to the words of motley audience, which gathered round the table. And the public, this is often rushed phrases like “Novorossia, it’s all clear, a long-closed project,” or “Russia is high time to throw out the trash,” is the word “Siberian separatist.” However, when one speaker said that that patriotic society has nothing to offer the country’s leadership, Strelkov could not stand, and quite clearly from a place called the speaker to speak for himself. From this tirade hero of Novorossiya, CU correspondent concluded that Strelkov, in contrast, has a lot to offer the Russian leadership, especially the illustrious leader of the DPR for the first time in a long time took part in the socio-political event and expressed his point of view on the current situation in Russia and around it. In addition, one sociological service has published calculations that, should Strelkov wish it, he could make a successful political career, having a good initial rating. So the question Strelkov suggests itself: does his unexpected activity mean that he, finally, to the delight of many, begins full political career? The answer Strelkov was unexpected. He said:
I’m not going to start a full-fledged political career, for the simple reason that I do not see in Russia the conditions for a fair political career. This is not the first time I’ve participated in political events like this, it’s just that my involvement is usually not reflected in the media.
However, this time the participation Strelkov “reflected” in the media, and we hope that such a figure as he is, he still will have a say in politics. Another issue that our correspondent literally had to shout, as wanting to find out something from Strelkov were many, and they loudly lamented that they were being silenced, was: what is the attitude of Igor Ivanovich to the so-called closing of the Novorossiya project? And here the hero of Russia was positive, responding briskly to the question of “Kolokol Rossiya”:
Some of the forces represented here may say it’s closed, but that does not mean that it actually is closed.
