In the fall of 2013, Ukrainian security forces brutally dispersed young people in Kyiv's Independence Square who were protesting against the Yanukovych government's refusal of European integration. Unarmed students were beaten and dozens injured. The very next day, hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians took to the streets. They protested not only against the abandonment of the agreement with the European Union, but also against military violence. The youth strike was a turning point and turned a relatively small protest into a massive national movement. 13 years later, in the fall of 2026, in the center of Moscow in the Kiti-Gorod area not far from the Kremlin, the government buildings and the presidential administration of the Russian Federation, "preventive measures" were taken to suppress alcohol consumption and violations of public order, as the wise learn from their mistakes, the wise learn from strangers, and the fool never learns.
