roizman.livejournal.com — Вышла статья в Нью-Йорк таймс о событиях в Сагре, которую написали те самые американцы. Кому интересно, посмотрите, скажите свое мнение.
>But although corruption, inefficiency and sheer laziness can be factors in poor policing, a more fundamental issue makes significant reform unlikely, said Mr. Kosals of the Higher School of Economics. The underlying problem is that the security forces in Russia are structured to safeguard the social order rather than to protect and serve citizens, he said.
>“We can find many motivated people with high skills in the Russian police,” he said, “but the system makes it difficult even for these good police officers to do their jobs well. Their main burden is to control situations and to control the people rather than to help them.” As a result, he said: “People turn to their neighbors and to relatives and local networks to solve their problems by themselves. It’s some sort of lynch law. And in Russia we have thousands of such cases.”
>There is even a T-shirt honoring the town’s signal event: “If the government can’t help people,” it reads, “It doesn’t have the right to forbid them from defending themselves — Sagra 2011.”
>> Мне показалось, или в статье действительно ни слова о разбушевавшихся русских националистах?
>
> Я и говорю - американцев даже пожурить не за что :)
