Evening with Vladimir Solovyov (№ 413455)

It is important to prove that they [the protesters] are in the majority. What are our wonderful oppositionists doing now? They are now frantically trying to prove that there is power behind them. Do you know what their immediate task is? They are already oozing with this task. This is to get political legitimacy. Force the authorities at any level to enter into dialogue. At the moment they are nobody. Create the illusion of dominance. And we are led to it. I'll give you an example. We are all saying now: we have lost to the youth. And who told us that this husk that was shouting something on Pushkin Square is our youth? This is being forced upon us, but it is not so.
