Today we present our political party.
The major presentation will take place on April 25th in Crocus City Hall.
We will make the presentation in our own style, as when we think about something serious,
it should be presented appropriately.
For example, when a scholar work is written, someday it should appear in a library,
if it is wealthy and influences development of science.
The issue is wide.
Initially it might seem exalted, but it is the way it should be.
The political formality of parties from elections to elections,
the illusion of social activity involving people who have social enthusiasm,
and such people should be present in any society, like dentists.
Those who have natural talent should work for the best without embarrassment due to conditions.
At the moment the conditions are the following: Russia, the 21st century, unclear times,
everyone knows what he doesnt want, but doesnt know what he wants.
Our society knows what it wants.
We have different interests, because it appeared due to Doctrine 77.
It is a platform for communication.
The only truth is God.
As for politics, the truth is an evolving thing.
Today we have what we have, tomorrow we will live like in The Fifth Element movie.
Anything can happen.
But we think about it.
We are not ashamed of being naive in some issues.
You cannot reach universal knowledge without facing obstacles.
You cannot create anything without your own life experience.
We have no experience, because it is a structurally new organization, and we hope it wont be formal.
Well see and work together.
We cannot offer Russia anything but joining us.
At the moment we witness a unique event
combination of a secular community built on principles of the role architecture
and the Orthodox movement Georgievtsi that is presented in thousands churches.
A new subject appeared in schools these days Fundamentals of Religious Education and Secular Ethics.
We should do our best for this subject wont be formal.
We have a chance to produce cynicism of our children.
A teacher who teaches children this subject influences on the future of a pupil
much more than other teachers:
whether a child will want to make the world better or will sink in stagnation.
The circumstances lead us to the second variant.
But we think you can evolve only by following the first rule swim against the stream.
As I am an ordinant, I cannot participate in the political activity.
Thanks God and people heading the organization, Heavens Coalition, it is a coalition of small unions,
a matrix model of a community using all modern political technologies in the sphere of social activity.
These people realize that I cannot be involved into the affairs directly, as it is politics,
and they suggested me to be the spiritual leader of the movement.
I consider myself undeserving this status which is natural for any normal person,
as well as disliking of your image in TV whether you earn money by it or not,
there is something in a human that holds arrogance up.
Nevertheless, if grown-up, adequate, socially active,
wishing well to others and sacrificing their time people suggest you such a position,
you should accept it, because I initiated the organization.
I consider the position as my duty to the Society 77, Heavens Coalition and the future party.
The party includes the Society 77, Georgievtsiů
by the way, Georgievtsi are people who are teachers who not only explain, but also inspire their pupils.
As for organizational moments and political aspects, Maxim will deal with it.
He knows the sphere better than I do.
And all our supporters trust him.
Maxim Brusnitsin, the head of the Society 77
I would like to say that after September 2011 a great amount of people appeared in regions
who supported the Doctrine 77.
Today the Society 77 is presented in almost all regions.
These are young people who support the idea of developing Russia and developing traditional values.
When we have met Georgievtsi recently, we understood that it is a perfect union for further development,
because the political party we want to establish
is needed for participation in the political life and political activity,
as well as attraction of people who stand for traditional values of the country.
Today we provide organizational activity in more than 50 regions:
we collect and register certain documents.
In the nearest future our objective is to attract socially active young people to the political activity.
I think that one of differences of our objectives from objectives of other parties
is absence of discussions on some persons, settlement of up-to-the-minute problems,
but establishment of the base for attraction of people to the political activity in 5-10 years.
Vadim Kvyatkovski, coordinator of the Orthodox movement Georgievtsi
Im ready to tell you about Georgievtsi.
It is a public organization of Orthodox people mostly, even though there are non-Orthodox people among us.
The organization is named after St. George the Victorious.
And it is not a secret that St. Georges Cross was awarded to Muslims too.
St. George is a patron of Russia, Moscow, that is why we have chosen this name.
I would like to add an important moment.
Yes, we and the Society 77 provide public awareness.
Father Ivan has said there is a point in providing teaching:
young people are growing and they will be our future teachers.
However, the political party is another question.
The political party was established to come to power, take power and work in it.
Why is the union important for us?
There are two main aspects.
I think many of you didnt find a party to vote for in the parliamentary elections.
Why? Because the spectrum presented in the State Duma is not full, some colors are absent.
For example, as Ivan Ivanovich says, there is no force reflecting interests of young talented people
who support traditional values.
We are to fill the niche.
At the same time, it is a crucial moment.
The municipal elections in Moscow showed that people who came to power are far from our interests.
Therefore, we will try to promote our candidates for next municipal elections.
It is 4 years before the next parliamentary elections, so we should work at the municipal level.
Everything is ready for our start.
According to our new laws, the procedure of registration was simplified.
We wont have 500 people in the party list.
We will be defined as initiators in all regions of Russia.
And there are dozens and even hundreds of thousands people who will be involved in the establishing process.
The presentation in Crocus City Hall has a new format.
We will have no closed conference, like some big federal parties do, for 100-120 people,
we will gather stadiums for our sessions.
We want to bring a new element, new spirit to parties life.
Everyone is tired of formal parties, they are not understandable.
On the one hand, we know Father Ivan, we love him, trust him, he is our friend, we follow him.
All that you see is very creative.
On the other hand, it is a serious toilsome work on establishing the party.
We are ready to present not a group of separate people with artistic skills,
but a real mechanism with its own structures that is ready to influence the processes developing in Russia.
