"Never Again!" Kurginyan on Soviet Russia collapse

14.12.2020, Moscow.

When, after the USSR collapsed and territories were lost, many people realized that it was a big mistake, and here I will conclude with only statement: “Never again,” said political scientist, leader of the Essence of Time movement Sergey Kurginyan on December 8 on the TV program Evening with Vladimir Soloviev.

The law on secession from the USSR made it difficult to leave. It required you to give up a lot, and significant rights had to be given to the population. But the nastiest thing was that this was committed by people with the mindset of feudal lords in the worst sense of the word. Peoplearenotserfs, “said Kurginyan.

The political scientist continued that the population of Transnistria, the population of Donbass, the Russian and Baltic populations are not serfs who were taken and transferred together with the territory to the landlord.

They are free citizens for whom the freedom of this very choice should have been secured and it should be guaranteed now. These people were caught off guard” – the political scientist said.

He explained that later on the issue came up of protecting the Russian population, and of what was happening in these republics.

I have a close friend and an associate, who spoke to the leader of one of the Central Asian republics. The leader said that the republic’s elite has to deal with the task of putting the population back to the nomad tent mindset. He said: ‘We will not return the nation to Kazakhstan without putting the population in yurts’. But there is no need for this. What can be done is simply drive out the Russian population so that the remaining part will fall into nearly the Dark Ages,” said the political scientist.

According to Kurginyan, it is necessary to replace the well-educated population of Tashkent or Baku with people from the mountains, and finally these territories will fall into regress.

What have these republics gained, what national identity, what are we talking about? In each of the territories there is regress with ethnic specifics. Where is regress not happening? So, this is already turning this territory into a black hole,” said the leader of the Essence of Time movement.

Everyone wants to have a piece of former Soviet territory. “Americans cannot give it to China. This has actually become the source of future world wars. And all this was done by people who said that if they knew beforehand, then they would…” said Kurginyan.

Well excuse me, there is one of them not the dumbest person – Zinoviev. He wrote a lot of good things, he repented at the end of his life. But once he said a strange phrase: ‘We aimed at the communism, but we hit Russia.’ You know, it reminds me a song: ‘Rabinovich fired, the shot was unsuccessful, and it hit a little bit of me.’ But what kind of a sharpshooter are you if you aim at communism, which he then praised again, and hit Russia. So what? No one understood what the real target was?” the political scientist asked rhetorical questions.

He noted that inside this whole affair there is something that smells like temptation, some kind of feeling of falling. “I am not a religious person, and I do not want to fully use religious categories, but it seems to me that in the sphere of spirit, history and citizenship there is also a sin, there is also a fall, there is also some kind of a self-destruction, the inner spirit of death that has grown out in these squares – Manezhnaya and others,” said the political scientist.

He then shared his memories of that time. “I stand on this square, Lyubimov shouts out loud from above: ‘Masters, for the first time I call you not comrades, but masters!’ There is a woman in old shoes, and she says: ‘He called us masters, he called us masters!’ I tell her: ‘Sweetheart, if there are masters then there must be servants.’ She looks at me and replies: ‘Servant of the nomenclature’,” said Kurginyan.

This is a blind spirit, which suddenly ceased to understand the value that exists: ‘At this perilous moment he could not understand against what he had raised his hand’. What did you raise your hand against? If you love, and if you understand – that this not yours, but it is something covered with the blood of your ancestors, you will not give up an inch of land. And when this ceding began, it became clear that a big disaster had happened. And here I can finish with only one thing: ‘Never again!’” the leader of the Essence of Time movement concluded.
