In the evening of March 25 in St. Petersburg an illegal antifascist march has taken place. Over 150 people have taken part, despite extremely harsh weather conditions - the city was in the middle of snowstorm (which probably slowed down the police reaction).

March, 7 at 16:00 several ultra right groups held a picket in St.Petersburg against Kosovo independence near the US consulate.

Some of the picket participants were attacked by antifascists after the picket/ This fairly ordinary event rose a lot of public attention, nationalists calling themselves patriots and Russian Orthodox believers started another hysteria in the media. In this connection we would like to make the following declaration to express our attitude to the event:

In beginning of October Pasha, anti-fascist activist and straightedger, was
jumped by persons unknown and beaten with baseball bats in Vladivostok. Now
half of his face is totally paralyzed, and in less than two weeks a very
expensive neurochirurgical operation has to be made, something he may not
afford on his own.

We do not know if this attack has to do with is politics - Pasha could not
recognize his attackers, they were all masked and dressed in sports suits.
It is well possible, that attackers were just local gang bangers (gopniks).
In another hand, these days few Nazis go around in bonehead uniform.
