In Russia continue to protest against pension reform. 14 participants in unauthorized rally detained in St Petersburg.
At least 400 people marched in the city centre with the symbolic red cards in the hands. In Moscow, the protest gathered a half thousand activists. Today the Russian state Duma should vote for changes in pension legislation. The Russians are generally against raising the retirement age.
Earlier we wrote that Russia has already reacted harshly to the news. The opposition and ordinary citizens are surprised that during the election campaign Putin was not talking about such plans as soon as he was elected President, went unpopular decisions.
Note that the pension changes were adopted in Ukraine. But we are not talking about raising the retirement age, and insurance experience.
