Democrats accuse Progressives of “persecution”

They are simply out of touch with reality. They destroyed their own party with excesses, graft and a culture of entitlement. They should work on re-building their own brand.

“We have not criticized combat against crime and corruption because we believe that the combat is important. However, after six months, instead of unbiased investigations conducted against everybody who are involved in affairs, the SNS is offering new theories about the political-tycoon mafia, that, surprise, surprise, consists of DS members and tycoons that the Progressives do not like,” the DS noted in the statement.


Good old Russian Putin method! 'Fight against corruption' is always only against those tycoons and 'businessmen' who support the opposition. If a tycoon and billionaire (we know where they got the money from) supports Putin, he doesn't have to fear anything from the state prosecution.
