Putin spoke about the protests in Yekaterinburg

2
Today, during the ONF media forum in Sochi, Vladimir Putin was asked about the protests in Yekaterinburg related to the construction of a church on the territory of one of the city squares.



Answering a question, the Russian president said he was surprised by what was happening. In his opinion, all parties to the conflict, both supporters of the construction of the temple and its opponents, have the right to express their attitude to the problem.

The President believes that local authorities should deal with such issues and called for solving the problem in the interests of residents of the area where the construction is planned, by conducting a survey based on which the minority should agree with the majority opinion.

In an answer to a question, Vladimir Putin also noted that temples should unite, not separate people.

Actually, the president of the country showed the most logical, self-evident, way out of the conflict situation in Yekaterinburg.

At this point, the question arises of the competence of the city authorities and their ability to find solutions to such problems that arise quite often in the metropolis, which is Yekaterinburg.

The need for the president to intervene in the situation surrounding the construction of a public garden in one of the cities, even such a large one, is an alarming symptom for the country, and something needs to be done urgently.

    Life is made up of compromises. Why were you unable to agree in Yekaterinburg? What is this, special regional obstinacy? Someone out there is inadequate.

    It has long attracted attention, the capture of the church squares, parks, places in the center, and so on. In many cities. Why's that? The policy of the clergy? Connivance or conspiracy of local officials? Decree on top? Why should religious organizations not participate in common land auctions? But they are buying plots for the construction of microdistricts, so why do they give away squares to someone to pull? The Russian Orthodox Church is not so far-sighted. By this they not only split the society, but also compromise themselves and their religion. The people are turning against themselves. Muddy and bad-smelling stories with these churches.
