Perhaps the most alarming signal of traditional presidential communication with the people was information from places about threats by local authorities, to those people who are trying to reach the president with their troubles. What is an example from the Tambov region, where a local activist Roman Gerasimov leading struggle against the construction of a solid household waste training ground (TBO) and gathered with this question to turn to Putinthe next day, received three stabs from the unknown with a knife, with one of them in the area of the heart. In the Kemerovo region, where also due to the complaint of a local resident Elena Kalinina About the condition of the building of the correctional school, she began to receive threats from local officials.
In both the first and second cases, local authorities deny their involvement in what happened. So, the environment of the governor of the Tambov region Alexandra Nikitin tried to interpret the attack on Gerasimovalike a household conflict, and the mayor of Novokuznetsk Sergey Kuznetsov refuted the fact of threats to Kalinina. Both situations, coupled with such a reaction of officials, are a clear evidence that, due to the negative selection (the result of a long-term personnel policy at which loyalty was put at the forefront), the power system “on the ground” was critically unbalanced.
Most observers agree that on this direct line the president for the first time did not show traditional stiffness, and most of the acute questions have remained unanswhaled, which are now delegated to the activists “ONF” And volunteers (even before the start of the direct line, decisions of 500 thousand appeals were made). The head of state had to indicate the logic of the actions of the authorities, but this was not done.
