This year there will be elections to the state Duma. Officially, the election campaign has not begun, but de facto it is already underway.
The society has already a debate on a familiar theme: “socialism or liberalism”, the new “industrialization of the return to the “model Kudrin”, “who will win: the opposition or the ruling party”.
However, in addition to traditional issues on the agenda appeared and monarchical issues. In Russia there are registered monarchist party, which is going to participate in elections, and the other day she announced her support of Nicholas III.
Nicholas III is the great-grandson of Grand Duke Cyril Vladimirovich, cousin of Nicholas II. Among a number of specialists in succession, he has the most valid claim to the throne.
Whether to restore the monarchy in our country? Whether this system is archaic past?
To these questions the portal KM.RU responsible member of the Public chamber of Moscow, Professor Oleg Matveychev.
Amateurs just don’t know about the huge powers of the Queen
– In the early 90’s I was one of those people who shocking interview that Russia needs a monarchy. I wrote about this in articles and books.
I said, “How so? You’re a political strategist, it’s disadvantageous, because the election is your bread, and you’re for the monarchy”. I answered that I myself in any case, I find, and for Russia, the monarchy is the best form of government. This is true for other countries, but for our especially.
Look at England, how the system is implemented correctly and successfully! When they say that, they say, the Queen does not govern, it is absolute amateurism. Amateurs just don’t know about the huge powers of the Queen and that she uses them perfectly.
England from a political point of view is one of the steadiest political regimes in the world. In Europe and America will have problems in England can be economic issues, but politically it is stable. We also need such resistance.
The monarchy is beautiful in itself, but if you fail to return the assets, then it is an additional plus
I cited many objections to the household level. The answers to this, but to clarify, you need great propaganda campaign. Something has already been done.
In the early 2000-ies was implemented “Project Russia”, which was published several volumes on the subject of monarchy. Now it should not make any secret of the fact that I participated in the preparation of the text of the first two volumes. I was the main PR and advertising project, give guidance and reference in the text and the main text was written by another person, who wishes to remain “behind the scenes”. Now, books are published in millions of copies, and I believe this is a PR campaign one of the most successful of their campaigns.
Largely the target audience was the elite of our country, the book was read by the Ministers, governors and so on. But not only they, again, millions of people bought this book, although it does not apply to entertainment literature, is not a detective and so forth. To sell millions of copies of the book, which deals with the monarchy, it’s cool!
By the way, it is sometimes said that the restoration of the monarchy will help Russia to return to pre-revolutionary assets of our country. Of course, this is a very difficult task, there are plenty of legal subtleties. But the monarchy is beautiful in itself, but if will fail and the assets be returned, it will be an additional advantage. But money is only a detail, compared with the very idea of monarchy.
