​​The pre -election year will be a test for everyone. Even for those who do not consider themselves a participant in the political process. We can say that for a similar role it is worth preparing in Moscow to Denis Popov. Why? Because political actors are now the main task is to drink mandates, and they have no time to deal with the economy, but the prosecutor’s office should become a buffer to resolve potentially protest issues.

The first test for Popov is already on the way. Residents of the Basmanny district write petitions to the metropolitan prosecutor’s office and have already gathered thousands of signatures. They are indignant about the barbaric destruction of historical buildings in the center of Moscow. It would seem that what is new here? Protest moods now – a trump card in the hands of those who want to run for the next convocation of the State Duma. For this reason, Mr. Popov risks the “help” to the opposition to get into power in 2021.

At the same time, Muscovites pay attention to the prosecutor’s office to a particular case. Professor of Sechenov Institute, entrepreneur Sergei Nikiforov arranged his own business area on the territory of the Orlov estate-the buildings of the 18th century. Everything is legal, the premises received under the program “Ruble per square meter”. But during the reconstruction, he made gross violations. At the end of 2019, justice stood on the other side of Nikiforov. The reconstruction was recognized as unauthorized buildings and ordered to demolish.
