Russian Punk Rockers Pussy Riot Produce 'Protest Music Video'Journalist It's called "Putin Will Teach You to Love Your Motherland." The video that was just realised has become an overnight Internet sensation. "The Olympics have turned a police state into a total police state; an authoritarian regime into a totalitarian regime with preventative arrests. In my opinion, the Olympics create a pretext for complete human rights violations in Russia," said Nadezhda Tolokonnikova from Pussy Riot. The video was released ahead of Friday's conviction in Moscow of eight anti-Putin protesters accused of rioting during mass demonstrations in 2012. "We want to attract maximum attention to this case because it's the biggest disgrace of contemporary Russia," said an unidentified member of Pussy Riot. "This is an active boycott of the Games. We are calling on everybody who see the realities of Sochi to participate," said Tolokonnikova. You can see the video below. Post Your Comment |
