This never happened before. A new role for Zhirino

This never happened before. A new role for Zhirinovsky and his party? A political hypothesis.


Some statements of Vladimir Zhirinovsky, made after the beginning of the sad events with Sergei Furgal, suggest that he, Zhirinovsky, is in a state of confusion.

“But we didn’t know it would be like that, it never happened. In Soviet times, this was not the case - the craters [special automobiles] arrived at six in the morning, no one knew about the arrests."
"... This is complete idiocy" (https://newdaynews.ru/moscow/700483.html)

“I myself raised rabbits as a child. I even remember a case: I went to a demonstration and I feel that something is wrong. I returned home as soon as possible - one rabbit broke his leg. " (https://t.me/s/zhirinovskylive; 28 August 2020) ...

What is the role of Zhirinovsky and his party?

We expressed our assumption: "Some of the citizens suspect the federal structures of the Liberal Democratic Party of Russia that they are portraying opposition and creating the appearance of a competitive democracy." (MDXCII. A detention of Sergei Furgal; the Liberal Democratic Party Party and the approaching single voting day. A political science essay. - July 26, 2020)

The position of Zhirinovsky and his party changed after the well-known events with Furgal ... But how this position is looked now?

"An informal media pact adopted after the events with the Khimki forest can be conditionally dated to 2010." (MDL. The modern history of Russial journalism (2010 - 2020). Historical version. A brief review. - July 8, 2020)

We can to assume that after some events, a certain informal electoral pact was concluded with Zhirinovsky.

Like the media pact, the electoral pact may have ended, as evidenced by the events with Furgal and a number of subsequent events.

On what conditions will further cooperation be built? Most likely, as of today, neither the sunny meadow of metropolitan journalism, nor Vladimir Zhirinovsky knows this......
