The more dangerous the volunteers

Krasnodar region is clearly not like the work of volunteers. Governor Alexander Tkachev has called the police to pay attention to the actions of "agents provocateurs", after which four people were arrested, allegedly "under the guise of volunteers' spread rumors and" provoked the conflict with providing the order of the Cossacks. " The State Duma is preparing to take a strange bill which will regulate the activities of volunteers.
Emergencies Minister Vladimir Putin complained that the volunteers in T-shirts with the word "Emergency" disturb the public order. Finally, the first vice-speaker of the Federation Council of Russia Alexander Torshin proposed the introduction of the responsibility for disseminating "alarmist rumors." It would seem that power itself is interested in a speedy exit from the crisis in Krymsk, where the tragedy occurred. But judging from the latest action, a higher priority for the Kremlin is the preservation of information and political control over the situation. 

Attempts by authorities to "resolve" the situation in Krymsk differ on whether the line was carried out during the terrible forest fires in Russia two years ago. Striking difference. In the summer of 2010 Prime Minister Vladimir Putin and President Medvedev have been much more involved in the situation. Putin met with the victims, visited the hospital, and even put out fires with a helicopter.
