Moscow police detain hundreds over election protests

Russian police arrested more than 600 people, including prominent activists, around a political protest in Moscow to demand that members of the opposition be allowed to run in a local election later this year. The protest, which authorities declared illegal beforehand, did not represent a significant challenge to Vladimir Putin and his allies, who have the resources to break up such demonstrations and jail people. Chants of 'Russia without Putin' and 'Putin resign' echoed through central Moscow as guardsmen clad in riot gear beat back protesters with batons and roughly detained people. Jailed opposition leader Alexei Navalny had called for the protest

It would take a worldwide unity that has never before been seen to truly over take the globalists...which seems next to impossible given how much division and hate there is among people.

Увидев армию росгвардии и остатки скандировавших демонстрантов китайцы с улыбкой и непониманием достали мобильники и стали всё это снимать.
