Vitebsk candidate Alex Gavrutikov met voters

September 11 was a meeting with voters of the candidate for Parliament in Vitsebsk Chkalauski electoral district № 18 Alexis Gavrutsikava.

The meeting, which was held in the auditorium of the Vitebsk School № 45, attended his confidants Milinkevich, Elena Fomin and Sergei Parsyukevich. Leading role played another candidate Christopher Zhelyapau.

Few people came. In the hall there were about 30 people. But there was even a young family with kids. Belatedly, the room leaked administration official school № 45. Note that most of the voters of the meeting held in sullen silence. Discussion ensued only at the end of the conversation, which lasted for nearly two and a half hours.

The room where the candidate spoke, it was soaked in cold blue tones. The candidate and his supporters were in the red and green flag and a portrait of Lukashenko, which made the event even more halodnastsi and panurastsi ...

 

"Ironic" elections

Christopher Zhelyapau devoted his opening remarks that "the electoral campaign is a difficult and strange situation" and that"the list of names for future members can already be found on some sites on the internet" . Called this election "ironic on the merits" .   "It is for this reason that today a not crowded room" , - concluded the leader.

Candidate Alex Gavrutikov started with, have gone back to the debates on television, in which he took part. There, his counterpart - the mathematics teacher Mikhail Volkov, Gavrutsikava asked to name the three points that would have proved Volkov that the activities of the opposition candidate in the parliament will be constructive, not destructive. Live Gavrutikov not have time to respond and invited competitors to the meeting. Wolves did not come, so Gavrutikov answered correspondence:

"More specifically, here are three positions. First : to start a dialogue the government should release all political prisoners and to rehabilitate them. Which - my party leader and confidant - Statkevich. I went to the election, knowing that they are not counting the votes went to the call of their leader to bring to vabartsa that the country needs a change. Head of State - I call it the former president - to be changed. Therefore, the second : to discuss with the President of the conditions for his resignation. The best we can guarantee it - is a fair trial. And the third thing , which must be immediately addressed in Parliament - constitutional reform. We need to return to the 1994 Constitution. Return his powers to parliament. Go to a different model of management: a strong parliament - a weak president. "

"Despite the deplorable human rights situation in our country, I support all the same for forward movement, for a change. His work in the City Council from 1990 to 1997, I have decided to issue voter successfully. In parliament the next level. But I think that in May of knowledge and experience will be there very helpful ... We have a right to public performance every five years, so I am now in front of you " - said Gavrutikov and handed the microphone Milinkevich.

 

Country pregnant reforms

Milinkevich spoke like clockwork - the disease of society, lack of faith people nepadkantrolnasts power and love of country:

"If we choose to Parliament, we must choose not only good teachers and doctors, but it is the people who are able to engage zakonatvorchastsyu ... We do not just singles that are striving for power to drive it - we're a team ... and she has her pragarama - People program . Key word - "change." Advocacy means stability. But there are different types stability. For me the important thing is that the country has a stable development. A stability cemeteries and bog - that is we do not need ... "

"I want to say to our shared responsibility for the country. We all love her, each in different ways. And, you know, when I went to the polls and stood in picket lines, I was shocked by the country, it seemed to me that I do not feel this country.Country into a deep depression! Country no longer believes. People said authorities do not believe, you do not believe in myself too do not believe - let our will go better. And who will make these changes and reforms, when society abyazveranae? .. Should get together and talk the same family. I do not know whether it understands the power of ... " - shrugs Milinkevich.

"If we do not zarazumeem that the country is pregnant reforms, it will be very bad. And the greatest contribution has to make the parliament. But one that will choose this year - it will be sterylizvavny, impatentny parliament. And we will postpone the decision disease ... Where do we go - to the east or west, ask. So no need to go anywhere else: our country here, and we are the masters. If you introduce the Russian ruble - whether our country is independent? No. So, if this time will be a parliament without discussion and debate, all filled up, we go to a dead end ... Already trembling voice, as you know, the situation is very serious. Power must be controlled by the people. And without an election can not achieve this. Elections - the cornerstone, if we want to build a free country. And we want to live in it " - assured the ex-presidential candidate (2006).

 

Distribution of sweets

The longest speech made activist "Tell the Truth" Sergei Parsyukevich . He told me why he was not registered as a candidate, and even more broadly defined the theme of Lukashenko's stability as a stable degradation.

On election said: "Almost in the country for many years, there is no choice. And it is unlikely they will be in the near future.Many say that the elections in Belarus are held for the sake of legitimizing power. And I think that the government is no longer needed. Parliamentary elections were distributing sweets to former officials close to retirement age, so that they unanimously pressed the right buttons for the huge salaries. Then why do they need - those elections? The fact that the opportunity to meet with voters except as part of the electoral campaign, we do not ... "

He ended the call: "Let us together build our country!"

 

I continue to believe Lukashenko ...

It was after the show Parsyukevich there is some debate. First, a woman in bright clothes asked, "And who exactly can replace Alexander Lukashenko - name names!"

"Please - this Milinkevich, head and shoulders above" - reacted Gavrutikov. "Listen, well, do not tell me ... What should be the president? This is a man who will stand up and say that two plus two is five - and he believed. As Lukashenko " .

How Mr. Zhelyapau not provide arguments zagannastsi acting head, the woman remained with her: "I continue to believe Lukashenko."

Next, a man who introduced himself as a former designer of the plant, "Hero", interested Gavrutikov better than the other candidates in the district, at least better mathematician Mikhail Volkov. "You were given the podium to bring us something secret, but I have nothing but criticism of the government not heard " - complained the voter.

Zhelyapova former designer had to remind that he almost an hour late for the meeting. Like, all the secret was said. "But we can repeat" And Gavrutikov again spoke of the need for change.

Another man, who also arrived late, asked Milinkevich, which for him is the undisputed authority characterize candidate Gavrutsikava. "The problem is not personalities - said Milinkevich. ruining us adnadumnasts ... " And again spoke of beskantrolnasts power.

Was the further development of Belarus. Gavrutikov predicted severe crisis, and prophesied that the dictator will take a year or two.

Point in the meeting the representative set of the rear of the school administration sheravgav Hall, who also made a prophetic tone possibility that soon in the hall may have lost the light.

Left with the impression that voters disagreed with not very eagerly.
