Russian Federation, May 6, 2012. On the eve of the ceremony of inauguration of Vladimir Putin, elected for a third term, the police brutally repressed a march of protest over the lack of freedom existing in the nation. Some people believed that this demonstration would be the beginning of a peaceful revolution, but it was the day when silence and fear won the game.

Moscow protests in the summer of 2019, caused by the inadmissibility of independent candidates for elections to the Moscow City Duma, were brutally dispersed by riot police and the Russian Guard. Peaceful protest actions on July 27 and August 3, which brought thousands of people outraged by the injustice to the central streets of Moscow, inspired and made many more courageous, despite the arrests and a large criminal trial called the "Moscow case". The persecution has mobilized new forces of solidarity among professional human rights defenders and grassroots activists, especially young ones. Supporting political prisoners has become a fashionable pastime. How long?
