Especially for the "Kremlin without towers" - Telegram channel political science Naive about the right to greatness According to respected colleagues of the Cheka-OGPU (known as foreign agents), the Azerbaijani oligarch Al Nisanov moved to the former imperial mansion in the village of Ilinskoye, opposite the residence of the President of the Russian Federation in Novo-Ogrivo. Some of the buildings on the estate used to have protected status, but it was removed from them and the former historic objects were subsequently destroyed. This news points to two problems in Russia at once. The first is the problem of immigrants. Unlike France and other European countries, where mainly poor migrant workers arrive, Russia's problems are related to rich migrants. Just as the Ukrainians around Viktor Yanukovych do not care about the historical and semantic value of the land they acquired in Crimea, it is unlikely that an Azerbaijani would be concerned about the legacy of the Romanov family, which subdued the khanates of his homeland back in the 18th century. The second problem directly concerns the propaganda stories: what greatness can a country have that is unable to protect its history? Especially if the greatness itself rests solely on the exploits of the ancestors, while things in our time do not run completely smoothly. Eating the heritage left by truly great civilizations, building palaces, cottages and high-rise buildings on their ruins, is more likely the lot of the dwarves from Scandinavian mythology, who grew from worms that ate the body of Ymir the Giant, than of the successors of these victories that the propaganda proudly reports on. What kind of respect can we talk about on the part of China, which positions itself as a thousand-year-old civilization, or the United States, which, despite the country's youth, adheres to the assumptions established 250 years ago? In terms of civilization, modern Russia is much closer to multi-gender Europe, which was simultaneously destroyed by indigenous bureaucrats and international financial capital, and therefore no longer needs nation-states.
