The issue of anti-Russian sanctions caused tension between the political camps in Germany – Independent Newspaper

The issue of anti-Russian sanctions caused tension between the political camps in Germany – Independent Newspaper

The issue of anti-Russian sanctions caused tension between the political camps
 Germany

 Germany, a poll sanctions Ukrainian conflict, Vladimir Putin Photos Reuters

 

The watershed between the supporters of tougher sanctions regime against Russia and their opponents took place not only in Europe as a whole, but also for individual European states. An illustrative example of this – a recent survey conducted by the German broadcaster ARD. The majority of Germans opposed the expansion of sanctions against Russia in the conflict over Ukraine. According to a survey in support of tougher punitive measures currently serve only 19% of Germans, 43% think the West has imposed sanctions ample.


  
 

More than a quarter of Germans (27%) in favor of a complete lifting of sanctions. At the same time much more supporters of this position (38%) – in the eastern federal states; in the western support this option 23% of respondents, said the German agency Deutsche Welle (DW).

  
 

Indirectly, that nuances on sanctions can be found at the governmental level, according to recent statements by political leaders of Germany. Analysts German newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (FAZ) analyzed the recent speech of the Christian Democratic leader Angela Merkel the German government and one of the leaders of the German Social Democrats, former chairman of the German-Russian Forum Matthias Platzeck. As is known, in Brisbane, where the meeting G20, Angela Merkel said the most rigid (according to many analysts) anti-Putin speech. The other day, November 25, during a speech at the Congress of the European family businesses in Berlin, she reiterated that economic sanctions against Moscow will remain in force if Russia does not change its policy towards Ukraine.


  
 

Matthias Platzeck in his interview commented on Russian-German relations in a much more conciliatory. However, the next day he tried to disavow some of his statements that could be interpreted as the need for international legal recognition of ownership of the Crimea Russia. However columnist FAZ Berthold Kohler notes that there are fundamentally different position in relation to Russia in the mouth of two politicians. While it is no secret that the government coalition, these differences are trying to belittle and to conceal. But, as noted by DW, speech Merkel and Platzeck demonstrated tension prevailing in Germany, and the whole of the Western alliance between the different camps.


  
 

The main approach Merkel Putin and Russia is the statement that the Russian president is seeking to expand the zone of influence of the West and this is already a danger not only for Ukraine but also for the whole European world order as a whole. She had no doubt that any concessions Putin may be regarded as further evidence of the weak will of the West, and this may encourage the Russian leader to further attempts to seize foreign territories.


  
 

Platzeck as Merkel says about the danger of the spread of the conflict. But the findings do the exact opposite. He advocates a policy of appeasement in its classical version. It boils down to the fact that it is necessary to retroactively legalize contrary to international law, the annexation of the Crimea, and with all the diplomatic attributes, including the approval of the action by the OSCE. In addition, the “return” of Eastern Ukraine in the Ukrainian state “after all that has happened,” he seems unlikely.


  
 

Where is the solution? Merkel leaves no doubt that tolerate the aggressive actions of Russia, it is not going to, but, apparently, she does not want to resort to military and anti-Russian actions. Apparently, in Germany (and, apparently, for Europe in general) we can talk primarily about strengthening the sanctions regime. That is why the new Foreign Minister of Poland Grzegorz Shetina and urged the EU now to prepare new sanctions against Russia in case if Moscow, he said, will launch a new aggression in eastern Ukraine, for example in order to capture Mariupol. “In that case we will have to immediately impose new sanctions, not only to start their training,” – he said in an interview with the newspaper Suddeutsche Zeitung.


  
 

For the Social Democratic Chancellor Merkel opponent more important to understand the reasons that led to the current crisis in relations between Russia and the West. He therefore called upon to understand the “fear of Russia surrounded by enemies.” Berthold Kohler concludes let Matthias Platzeck already took back his words, pretended in his excursion into the history of the world just by chance “found himself in Sevastopol,” but expressed something with which many agree. Namely: yes give Putin has what he wants (and de facto already have) – and that’s that. But German Chancellor Angela Merkel said that it would be a “fatal mistake».


  
 

At that this discussion can expect the Kremlin? It is no secret that the sanctions, particularly in the financial sector, very negative impact on the Russian economy, and, if dismiss propaganda chatter mass media close to the Kremlin, the Russian economy is much greater losses than western firms and banks. Decisive will be the development of the situation in the south-eastern Ukraine.


  
 

There are well-founded suspicions that even voiced by representatives of the Russian political elite that Kiev intends to bring the situation in the south-east to the new large-scale military confrontation in order to achieve the strengthening of anti-Russian sanctions and even the possible involvement of the West in direct military conflict with Russia (as the military the victory of the Ukrainian army today is questionable). But this is a direct path to the third world war, and it seems that this fact is well understood and in European capitals and in Washington.

Barshchevsky accused of putting pressure on the court at the suit of Makarevich to Prokhanov

The writer Prokhanov said the pressure on the court envoy of the Russian government in the Constitutional and Supreme Courts Russian Mikhail Barshchevsky in the consideration of the claim to the writer Andrei Makarevich. Misconduct Barshchevsky noted and lawyers. Experts believe that the well-known lawyer had to distance themselves from this process.

– I listened to what was said in the liberal media about the trial. Speech Barshchevsky just shocked me. I do not know what motivated him when he so carefully chose a lawyer for the company Makarevich “Barschevsky and partners.” What was it? Love for Makarevich or desire to give work to lawyers? Either this was some kind of secret places me for what I have several times to the nines butchered him at the barrier Solovyov? – Said Prohanov. – Barschevsky – an experienced politician. There is reason to believe that the court through Mr. Barshchevsky influences – added the writer.

Prohanov also said it plans to appeal to the higher authorities to provide judges with a printout of call Barshchevsky if any, as well as video recording of the court session, to see how Barschevsky representing the government in all courts, “explicitly or implicitly makes the other side, which is a tough opponent and state policy mentality of the Russian people».

Let us recall that on November 18 Savelovsky Court granted the petition to Prokhanov Makarevich and the newspaper “Izvestia”. The court recognized published in “Izvestia” Prokhanov column entitled “Singers and scoundrels” untrue and defamatory Makarevich. In a newspaper column, the author stated that Makarevich spoke to the Ukrainian security forces in the Donbas and thus “inspired the Ukrainian military to bomb Donetsk.” The court ordered to pay Prohanova Makarevich 500 thousand. Rubles compensation. In addition, writer and newspaper ordered to pay court costs – 8.5 thousand. Rubles. Representatives Prohanova and “News” immediately said they would appeal the decision.

After the verdict Michael Barschevsky on the air of “Echo of Moscow” openly stated that he was satisfied with the court decision, expressed his sympathy Andrei Makarevich and stressed that the interests of the singer on the process represented by a lawyer from the Bar “Barschevsky and partners “rather than, perhaps, aroused suspicion Alexander Prokhanov in his personal interest in the outcome of this case.

« Anastasia Rastorgueva – it is the lawyer of the Bar “Barschevsky and partners”, it happened. .. I understand that, of course, the great Russian writer Alexander Andreyevich Prokhanov offended by the phrase I’m about to say, “for the market to be answered» … I know just directly from the source. Andrew was shocked by such a reaction. He went to speak to the refugees, many of whom were children … I believe that it is fundamentally important decision of the court “- said Barschevsky

– It seems to me very strange broadcast on “Echo of Moscow”, where he persistently demanded that the audience so that they remember the name of the judge, and also took note that the lawyer who helped Makarevich, was taken from his law firm ” Barschevsky and partners “, which belongs to his daughter. If his daughter owns this office, the apple does not fall far from the tree. I think that Barschevsky maybe could tell Makarevich his office and his legal services, such it may well be – commented performance Prokhanov.

According to “Izvestia” lawyer from Moscow Bar Association Nodar Dui position Barshchevsky, in his opinion, does not conform to professional ethics.

– I think the act of Mikhail Barshchevsky unethical. From the point of view of the legal profession is a violation of legal ethics. Because, as a lawyer and a representative of the Government in the courts, it should not express their point of view. Especially so categorically. He is not a direct participant in the process – said the lawyer.

Interests Makarevich in court defending attorney law firm Barshchevsky daughter. Among the founders and owners of the company itself Barschevsky does not appear. That is a direct participant in the process he is not. In this case, the lawyers say, if the government representative in the courts took advantage of his official position and studied the materials of the case, it is some pressure on the court. Of particular interest is the fact that Makarevich and Barschevsky consist in the federal council Party Mikhail Prokhorov “Civic Platform” and during the presidential campaign actively supported it, as fiduciaries businessman.

In his defense, Michael Barschevsky said “Izvestia”, that did not know about the time of the meeting, in any court hearing the case.

– About the results, I also learned from the media – says Barschevsky.

The President of the Bar of Moscow, Russia honored lawyer Henry Reznik indignant question about ethical behavior Mikhail Barshchevsky, while noting that a lawyer is wrong to assess the processes in which it is not involved.

– First, Michael Barschevsky no longer a lawyer. His lawyer suspended status. Therefore, the question itself is not correct. Secondly, I comment on matters that do not take part, do not give because it is unprofessional – he explained.

President of the Center for Strategic Communications Dmitry Abzalov also believes that if a person in authority, or to perform certain functionality, it is even in Twitter is not an independent unit. His statements are resonant. And it is not about the legal aspects, and politics.

– There exists a subtle moment when he personally (Barschevsky. – “News”) can claim anything, but as far as he can do so by virtue of the nature of their activities? Perhaps the permanent representatives should be somewhat limited in such opportunities. We have the same situation was with the deputy minister, who outlined his position on pension reform in the social network. There are moral and ethical issues, but there are no legal prohibitions – said Abzalov.

A former member of the “Time Machine” Peter Podgorodetsky has repeatedly stated that the group had political sponsors and for the money it is not just acted on political grounds, and the Andrei Makarevich was politically engaged.

– The “Cars” from time to time appeared sponsors. Sometimes it
 were bandits, sometimes people from the Far East, and with the growing popularity
 her group began to use and policy. In the second half of the nineties
 us “fuse” Chubais, then joined him Nemtsov, then Shabdurasulov and other brothers later form the “Union of Right
 forces. ” I admit that our creativity they really liked it. We, in
 turn, were in their congresses, whirled their symbolism,
 practiced at parties. Money is not that flowed (although up
 I heard they do not always), but they were pretty decent, – said earlier musician.

Commends the work of the Russian authorities designated GRECO speakers from the Czech Republic and Slovenia.

Do not complete criminalization

In the fight against corruption GRECO issued nine recommendations of which were fully met only two. Most of was not performed due to lack of regulatory framework. Prosecutor General’s Office has prepared a draft law on “On Amendments to the Laws of the Russian Federation in order to strengthen responsibility for corruption” in June 2014, but his introduction to the State Duma has not yet been reported. Bill the Ministry of Justice to amend the legislation in order to meet international obligations in the fight against corruption have also been reported in the lower house.

has not been executed GRECO recommended to criminalize bribery of judges and arbitrators and that legislation such concepts as a “proposal”, “promise”, “demand” and “acceptance of an offer or promise” bribe. GRECO also proposes to expand the legislation of bribery so that it covers any illicit enrichment, including obtaining intangible benefits, but there is no law also allows us to consider this recommendation executed.

It is also not fulfilled trapped in the Prosecutor General’s recommendation to extend the project effect of anti-corruption laws to third parties, in favor of which may have been committed corruption offense, and make criminalized trading in influence.

partial fulfillment of the Greeks considered the recommendation to extend the statute of limitations on corruption cases from the current two years to ten years. The deadline was extended to ten years for cases of bribery in sport or commercial entertainment competitions. Prosecutor General’s Office and the Ministry of Justice projects involve lengthening, but not to the required ten years, and up to three and six, respectively.

Russia fulfilled recommendations which criminalize bribery of members of international parliamentary assemblies, judges and officials of international courts. Relevant resolution adopted Plenum of the Supreme Court July 9, 2013. Also performed a recommendation on the review of the legislation and the decisions by courts allowed persons involved to avoid criminal prosecution.

In recent years in the development of Russian law defined an absolute priority to combating corruption and regulation are subject to virtually all sectors of economic and management activities in Russia says a member of the State Duma Committee for Security and Anti-Corruption, United Russia deputy Ilya Kostunov. “Tips of international organizations such as the Greeks are very valuable, and, of course, all obligations are fulfilled Russia. But the main document, which we are guided – is anti-corruption plan, signed by the President of Russia “- the source said RBC.

The opacity of party funding

Another part of the report GRECO concerning the regulation of corruption in the party law. The Group welcomes the imminent entry into force of amendments to the federal law “On political parties”, but notes that some of its recommendations in these documents have not been recorded. In particular, according to the detention of campaign finance regulation has not been revised in order to ensure clear and unambiguous legal framework. So, was not put a barrier to the use of official position of the contestants and was not provided transparent funding of public associations without legal personality, which are occupied by the support of political parties. According to experts of GRECO, it is necessary to increase the independence of the electoral commissions and conduct more in-depth and active monitoring of the financial statements of parties and election headquarters.

The only executed “on satisfactory” was the recommendation to reduce the threshold for disclosure of donations from individuals and legal persons with € 10 thousand. for legal persons and € 1 thousand. for individuals almost half.

GRECO also draws attention to the complexity of the legislation on political parties and elections, in which the laws at the federal level intersect with the resolutions, CEC decisions and banks. Given that fully complied recognized only three recommendations GRECO offers Russia to provide additional information on the implementation of remaining until December 31, 2015.

The issuance of passports of the formal procedure could become a solemn ceremony. State Duma deputy, deputy chairman of the Committee on Constitutional Legislation and State Building Vadim Solovyov (CPRF) is preparing a draft law providing for primary passport mandatory recitation of the oath of a citizen of Russia. This sends DV-ROSS.

Elena Shapkina , the Public Chamber:

– We are building a state of law and based their actions on the letter of the law. Oath in turn – is solemn proclamation, based on the value and importance. It should be associated with specific goals and objectives.

Get a Passport, young people are entering a new stage of life development associated with the extension of the range of their legal rights and obligations. This is in accordance with the fundamental law of our country and the legislation in force for every citizen. Chances are that mandatory pronunciation oath youth remain formal words. At the same time patriotism – is active love for the Motherland!

I suggest handing together with the passport copy of the Constitution of Russia, the younger generation to read, know and fulfill their rights and obligations, in fact, using this knowledge.

Sangadzhi Tarbaev, the Public Chamber:

– I agree that it is necessary to develop patriotism, but in any case not to impose it. Such methods we can only further scare young people. At this age, just the highest peak of extremism and any instruction from above may have the opposite reaction.

When I received a passport in 14 years, I did not say no oaths, but for me it was a significant event, which we noted in the family. I believe that this culture should primarily come from the family, not the state. You would think, how to make a solemn ceremony to obtain a passport without giving it a touch of jingoism. Need very delicate and unobtrusive approach to this issue.
