Above the precipice in lies.

Our country really is above the abyss, the political crisis is deepening, the economic situation is unstable, and around it lies a big lie - the fog of political election games.

No one can clearly and clearly formulate what is the ultimate goal of economic, democratic and social transformations, as a result, in no sphere of life is it possible to set specific tasks and forecast their implementation.

All politics in the country is done inside the Garden Ring.

How do they relate to what is happening in the regions and what do they think about the impeachment that has not taken place for the president?

The view from the regions is represented by the governors Alexander Rutskoi, Ivan Sklyarov, Anatoly Efremov; in the discussion involved journalists Eugenia Albats, Mark Deutsch, Otto Latsis, as well as university students.
