How little the event is for the Russian society as important as what happened thousands of miles away — in Washington. Any statement, any initiative, if they at least alluded to Russia, worth discussing, and ultimately unchangeable condemnation.The latest example of the acclaimed “resolution condemning human rights violations in Russia”, which was introduced in the us Congress. The news on the website of a major Russian news Agency scored almost 350 million views and thousands of angry comments. The resolution invited the House of representatives to condemn persecution of political prisoners, and the Secretary of state and the Minister of Finance to impose sanctions against the perpetrators of this reprehensible behavior.Here only the relation to real life this resolution has virtually no. It is solely intended to Express the point of view of politics or politicians, and ideally the entire house of representatives. The resolution is not enough that has no chance of becoming law (it’s even not supposed to), but with high probability not be “voted” and will not even receive a formal approval.A similar situation with an anti-Chinese bill, which had submitted to Congress, Senator Lindsey Graham — author, by the way, never introduced (feeling a trend?) anti-Russian sanctions “from hell”. The document deserved criticism from the Chinese foreign Ministry and summoned thunder in social networks, but in recent months, such bills of different degrees of verbal glowering appeared three.The right to impose sanctions belongs to Donald Trump, who doesn’t like it when it something tells the senators and the congressmen. In the hands of the allies Donald trump the Republican is the Senate, and no “sanctions law” without their approval (and the approval of the President) will not be accepted. So how did you decide on Donald trump the question of sanctions, and will continue to be addressed.Why do all American politicians? Because they are in a competitive political system. The same author’s “anti-Russian resolution” Elliot angel on your website directly in his cap reports that pride in working for the residents of the Bronx and Westchester in the 16th district of the state of new York.He needs to be accountable to their constituents and to the leadership of the Democratic party and, consequently, to demonstrate active. It helps the residents of their districts to resist the coronavirus and fighting for universal health insurance, receives a delegation of students from Westchester to Washington DC (working for the voters), and as head of the international Affairs Committee scolds Donald trump for his foreign policy (working for the party). And, of course, defend their own ideaslogicheskie position.That is, for the Mr. angel and his career, his resolution is much more important and influential than the Russian-American relations. And we are replicating this useless, in fact, a leaf, only to help the Congressman to do his job and increase his influence.All those endless bills and talk about evil Russia and evil China is, how well formulated my esteemed colleague program Director of the club “Valdai” Ivan Timofeev, similar to the sound of rain. That’s just what we eagerly press their ear to the ground, struggling to listen to that noise, and then the choir begin to blame the rain — the question is to us.No matter what the news is about the tank gave the publication, making the business information services gullible fans of Russian weapons, and MP was nothing decisive vote of the city Council.The Soviet Union had accepted blame “groveling before the West”, which is understood as love for foreign culture, clothing, technology and lifestyle. The futility of such criticism, perhaps, have realized all — but one stand in a full-length informational groveling before the West, we seem to have completely missed.
