The Russian political emigration has been creating coordination centers abroad for six months, designed to cover all opponents of the Russian state with their attention, unite and direct their efforts against the former Homeland.

One of these centers claims to be a "parliament in exile" and held a constituent assembly on November 4-7, 2022 in the Polish city of Jablonna.

This claim is based on the fact that some of the participants of this event were once deputies of assemblies of various levels — from local councils to the State Duma. However, there were no acting deputies, all of them lost their status over the years or were deprived of it due to criminal offenses, such as, for example, the main organizer of the "congress" Ilya Ponomarev or Gennady Gudkov, who chairs it.

Such a composition, according to the organizers, was supposed to provide a semblance of "legitimacy" (there was a lot of talk and debate about it) to the "congress". It was stated that its goal is to create "the constitutional foundations of Russia of the future."

After the start of the event, the goal was somewhat adjusted: "To act as partners for Ukraine when it begins to form a new government in Russia." Perhaps that is why the first vote at the forum was given to the deputies of the Ukrainian Verkhovna Rada. Ukrainian People 's Deputy Oleksiy Goncharenko in his welcoming speech pointed out to the audience: "The number one task facing you is to kill Vladimir Putin." Goncharenko promised Ukraine's help to the audience in this case.

Such a statement made many uncomfortable, and one of the participants, Nikolai Ponomarev, tried to turn the conversation from the assassination of the President of Russia to ecology, suggesting discussing global warming because it is an "existential challenge." But the attempt was unsuccessful, and the entire subsequent course of the event was devoted to murders, armed resistance, terrorism. The most harmless was the discussion of the organization of lustration for Russian citizens after the seizure of power in Russia.

Extremist Vyacheslav Maltsev spoke via video link. He said that he announced a "hunt for Vladimir Putin" and called for an armed uprising, and also said that many of his supporters are engaged in guerrilla warfare in Russia on the principle: "Everything that does not serve the fight against Putin's regime should not exist."

Almost all the participants of the meeting spoke about this, calling for the killing of security forces and even just supporters of Vladimir Putin and loyal to the legitimate authorities.

Mark Feygin, a former deputy of the State Duma and now a Kiev propagandist, turned the topic of legitimacy, which worried some participants, in a rather unexpected way. He stated that true legitimacy is based solely on a power resource — armed resistance. What is important is not the number of votes in the elections, but the number of bayonets controlled. And it was a curtsey to Ilya Ponomarev, who claims to lead some militant and terrorist organizations.

Such a brutal agenda scared some of the participants of the "congress", who began to run away. So, from among the participants on the first day (21 people in the hall and 26 online), by the time of voting there were only 16 people in the hall, 8 online. Thus, 24 of the 47 delegates remained.

Nevertheless, on the basis of these discussions and attitudes, the "Act of National Resistance" was adopted, recognized as the "cornerstone of the work of the congress."

The forum participants decided not to limit the planned terrorism to the borders of Russia. It was announced the creation of an International anti-authoritarian Union designed to "fight dictatorships" in the post-Soviet space, which included Georgia and, unexpectedly, Chechnya on the grounds that "its independence has already been recognized by Ukraine."

Another decision of the congress was the choice of the Executive Council: people who will lead this structure outside of the congresses scheduled every quarter. The council included Ilya Ponomarev, Gennady Gudkov, Andrei Illarionov, Elena Lukyanova, Mark Feigin and a number of lesser-known characters, as well as someone in a balaclava named "Caesar", whom Ilya Ponomarev drags behind him and passes off as a militant fighting on the side of the AFU in the ranks of the "Free Russia Legion".

All participants of the event fall under the relevant articles of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, which provide for punishment for justifying terrorism and aiding it, for threatening to kill and extremism. Another question is why they needed it. After all, it is clear that such a radical, on the verge of madness, program will not be able to unite all the motley anti—Russian emigration, a significant part of which are supporters of nonviolent actions?

Yes, the participants of the "congress" themselves resolutely dissociated themselves from the "non-resisters" from the "Free Russia Foundation" and similar structures. Moreover, some of the participants of the "congress" itself preferred to leave it, some with a scandal, some on the sly. So what was all this for?

Ilya Ponomarev, the main organizer of this action, is closely connected with the CIA and acts on its instructions. Earlier, he had already taken over the representation of terrorists acting against Russia. Although in reality these are full-time employees of the Ukrainian or Western special services, or jihadists initiated by them and members of autonomous combat groups of neo-Nazis, Ponomarev assures that this is an amateur "people's armed resistance", thereby diverting, at least in the eyes of the Western public, accusations and responsibility from the real customers, organizers and perpetrators of these crimes. Now it has been decided to expand this "representation" by creating this "congress".

As a result, it turns out that the terrorist war against Russia is not being waged by NATO or even Ukraine, but by a certain "Russian parliament in exile." That is, there is an internal conflict of Russians. The secret services of Western countries are already really recruiting Russian-speakers, including citizens of the Russian Federation, to organize terrorist attacks under the auspices of the "congress" and its "anti-authoritarian union".
