Quotes:
-When the principle “Russian - help Russian” enters our lives, it will change exactly the way we would like it to. When Russians begin to help each other, they will ensure that Russia is ruled by those who understand the Russian soul, Russian interests, who serve the Russian spirit and Russian tradition.
-There is no such nationality - “Siberian”. There are residents of Siberia, just as there are residents of the Ryazan or Nizhny Novgorod provinces. Everywhere has its own small-town (territorial) patriotism, which is also inherent in Siberians. But “Siberian” is not a nationality, but a territorial attribute, community. Of course, they have their own local characteristics, just like the inhabitants of the Far East and Central Russia. But there was and is not a unique “Siberian culture” and “Siberian identity” in Russia. Ethnically, Siberians are no different from those who exist in other places of our vast country.
-The Bolsheviks not only pitted Russians against each other in a civil war, not only destroyed the flower of the nation - the leading classes, but also confused Russian self-awareness with internationalism. As a result, the country was plowed up by ethnic borders, along which it was dismembered in 1991. The Russian idea is deeply disgusted by any internationalism. Russia acquires its universal service as a distinctive country and a unique state - an empire uniting many peoples under the leadership of the Russians.
-It is invariably confirmed: socialism is, among other things, also a diagnosis. If a person is for socialism, then he is a complete and incorrigible idiot who knows nothing, hears nothing, and is in principle incapable of understanding anything. I now propose a completely final definition: “Socialism is idiocy.”
- Liberals are disgusting. But we stopped communicating with them a long time ago. But the “pagans” just keep climbing and climbing. And it's just a sickening crowd. There is simply nothing but hatred for the Russian people in this “belief” in one’s mental and spiritual vices. Complete identity with the liberals. They hate Russia, and these too. This is the same non-Russian people as the foreign liberals. Even though their mom and dad may be Russian, their minds are broken and their spirits are polluted by vile inventions about Russia and Russians. They hate all of Russian history in general. Exactly like the liberals. They don’t want to know what “Russians” are. And they spit on the graves of our ancestors. There is nothing but hatred in them. There is nothing at all from historical paganism in them - they know nothing about it at all. There is only harm to the Russian movement from this senseless public. They always ruin everything, no matter what they touch. Even if part of their consciousness has not yet been killed, sooner or later they will still strike at the Russians if they begin to take them as friends, comrades, comrades-in-arms. These are natural traitors. And the betrayal in their madness is formed from wild fantasies about “paganism” and wild slander against Orthodoxy and Orthodox people. If half a person’s head is filled with non-Russian nonsense, nothing can be done about it. A drunk will sleep it off, but a fool will never return to a sane state.

Recently, there has been an increase in interest from the media in the activist of the Russian national idea, fighter against illegal migration, Andrei Savelyev, who heads “Great Russia”, a party that is not registered with the Russian Ministry of Justice.

From the biography of a politician

Citizen of the Russian Federation Savelyev Andrey Nikolaevich is a native of the Amur region. Born August 8, 1962

In 1979, he became a student, entering the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, where he studied until 1985.

Then, for five years, he was an employee at the Institute of Chemical Physics and the Institute for Energy Problems of Chemical Physics.

After graduating from graduate school in 1990, he became a candidate of physical and mathematical sciences. He defended his PhD in chemical physics.

Since the same year, Andrei Savelyev worked as a deputy in the Moscow City Council. At first he was on the commission dealing with the consumer market, then he joined the commission in charge of the affairs of public organizations.

At the time of the dissolution of the Mossovet in 1993, Andrei Nikolaevich Savelyev served as director of the Mossovet Public Center.

Passion for political science

Since 1992, Savelyev has developed a new hobby - political science. By the next year, he had completed two courses at the Moscow Law Institute, and in 1994 he attended a course for stock market specialists.

From 1995 to 1998, Andrei Savelyev worked in various analytical centers, including the Russian Social and Political Center.

Since 1998, he began active work in the International Congress of Russian Communities.

Since 1999, Andrei Savelyev began to serve as an adviser to the State Duma deputy of the Federal Assembly of Russia Dmitry Rogozin, who at that time was the chairman of the Duma Committee on International Affairs and was the special representative of the president in Kaliningrad. Rogozin held this position until the fall of 2003.

The year 2000 was remembered by Savelyev for the fact that he became a doctor of political sciences; the topic of his dissertation also concerned processes.

From the fall of 2002 until April 2003, political scientist Andrei Savelyev was engaged in analytical work in the “Rogozin bureau” and was the head of the Kaliningrad apparatus.

Deputy activity

In December 2003, Savelyev was elected to the State Duma. He represented the Rodina association, which, in addition to the Party of Russian Regions, included the Socialist Unity Party and the National Revival Party called People's Will.

In the Duma, Savelyev was included in the committee dealing with constitutional legislation and state building. He later received the post of deputy chairman of this committee. In addition, he was a member of the Duma Accounting Commission.

On January 21, 2005, Andrei Savelyev decided to join the hunger strike, which was announced by the Rodina faction.

This action was carried out in protest against the State Duma’s refusal to include in the agenda a proposal to consider an alternative version of the bill concerning social problems that could arise after benefits are replaced with cash payments.

In addition to party chairman Dmitry Rogozin, several deputies also took part in this action: Markelov M., Kharchenko I., Denisov O.

Mikhail Markelov made a promise that in order to avoid various kinds of provocative actions, the entire hunger strike procedure would be posted on the website of the Rodina party around the clock.

After a week of hunger strike, Savelyev was diagnosed with “low blood sugar levels,” which was the reason for his hospitalization.

The action was stopped in early February 2005; the protesters failed to achieve a positive result.

The hunger strikers demanded the resignation of a number of ministers, such as Mikhail Zurabov (health), Alexey Kudrin (finance), and Gref German (economic development and trade). They also proposed creating an emergency commission to find the best way out of the current crisis situation.

Conflict with Zhirinovsky

In March 2005, the media reported that a fight took place within the walls of the State Duma, the participants of which were nationalist Andrei Savelyev and LDPR leader Vladimir Zhirinovsky.

In a speech to the press, Zhirinovsky stated that he had submitted an application to the Prosecutor General's Office, which stated the need to initiate criminal cases against Savelyev and the chairman of Rodina, Dmitry Rogozin.

In response to this, deputies of the Rodina faction and the Communist Party of the Russian Federation initiated a collection of signatures for the proposal to recall Zhirinovsky from the post of vice-speaker.

In addition, it was proposed to deprive the leader of the LDPR of parliamentary immunity and declare a boycott on him.

These proposals did not find support among the deputy corps.

Savelyev had to testify to employees of the Prosecutor General's Office about the fight that took place in the Duma with Vladimir Zhirinovsky.

Combating abuses at RAO "UES"

In the summer of 2005, there were massive power outages in the capital and Moscow region.

These circumstances prompted Savelyev to suggest that his fellow deputies make a request to the government to find out the size of the salary of the management staff of RAO UES of Russia and managers in the regions.

This idea was approved by the deputy corps.

On June 16, 2005, Savelyev took part in an action held by representatives of the capital’s branch of Rodina, where they symbolically sent Chubais “to a well-deserved rest.” A similar event was planned to be held for the president’s birthday, but it was later abandoned.

About the situation of guest workers

In the fall of 2005, Rogozin, Savelyev and Babakov proposed to the State Duma to change the situation with the situation of foreigners in our country.
In particular, it was proposed to introduce a ban on trade in agricultural products to foreigners in order to protect local producers.

Experts from the Carnegie and Levada Centers have suggested that on the eve of the election campaign to the Moscow City Duma, representatives of Rodina, playing along with the xenophobic idea, are trying to gain the support of the capital's residents.

Since March 2006, information has appeared that Savelyev is included in the directory of “Russian Far-Right Radicals,” which was published by human rights and anti-fascist organizations.

In addition to him, the list of nationalist ideologists includes such well-known odious personalities as Alexander Barkashov (Russian National Unity), Alexander Ivanov-Sukharevsky (People's National Party), Alexander Demushkin (Slavic Union) and Alexander Prokhanov (editor-in-chief newspaper "Zavtra").

Vladimir Kvachkov, who was previously a colonel in the Main Intelligence Directorate and was accused of organizing the assassination attempt on Anatoly Chubais in March 2005, was also named an ideologist of nationalism.

Merger of political structures

Having learned about the upcoming merger of the Rodina party with Mironov’s Russian Party of Life, Savelyev sharply criticized this idea.

After the creation of A Just Russia, which united Rodina, the Russian Party of Life and the Russian Party of Pensioners, Savelyev made a statement that A Just Russia had “stolen its legal powers and membership status in the Rodina party.”

In his opinion, there were sufficient grounds for filing a corresponding claim in court, but no consequences occurred after this statement.

The politician remained in the Rodina faction, which in January 2007 joined the People's Patriotic Union and was renamed A Just Russia - Motherland.

DPNI

In the fall of 2006, Savelyev joined the “Movement against Illegal Immigration,” known by the abbreviation DPNI.

He was the first of the deputies to join this structure, which became famous for its xenophobic spirit. The politician argued that this movement is not extremist.

In his statements to media correspondents, Andrei Savelyev said the following about Putin: The Kremlin has specifically launched a campaign to counter the movement, since the head of state is afraid of his own future and is trying to make the DPNI responsible for the intensification of interethnic conflicts in Russia.

Party "Great Russia"

In the spring of 2007, the newly created political party "Great Russia" held its founding congress. The initiators of the congress were the Rogozin Congress of Russian Communities and the DPNI, which was headed by Belov, but Andrey Savelyev was elected chairman of the party. “Great Russia” has found its leader for a four-year term.

The congress, in addition to electing the governing core of the political structure, adopted the corresponding charter and approved the symbol: the Ussuri tiger in a jump.

Some time after the congress, A. Savelyev was summoned by summons to the investigator of the Basmanny Prosecutor's Office of the city of Moscow, where he was interrogated for almost two hours.

According to Savelyev, the reason for the call to the investigator was a request to the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation, initiated by the LDPR faction, where it was proposed to find out where the funds for the creation of “Great Russia” came from and whether the disgraced businessman Berezovsky was taking part in its financing.

According to Savelyev, prosecutors were satisfied with the testimony received from him, since the founders of the party did not do anything illegal.

Books by Andrey Savelyev

Savelyev wrote over three hundred articles of a journalistic and scientific nature. When publishing books, he sometimes used the pseudonym A. Kolyev.

2003 was marked by the release of “Political Mythology”, 2005 - “Nation and State”.

Andrei Savelyev wrote a lot about the monarchy.

He is the editor of "The Russian System", "The Inevitability of Empire" and other collections.

Savelyev's family - a wife and two sons. Hobbies: martial arts.

Chairman of the unregistered party "Great Russia"

Chairman of the unregistered party "Great Russia". From 2006 to December 2011 - one of the leaders of the public organization "Motherland - Congress of Russian Communities". He was a deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Federation of the fourth convocation from the electoral association "Rodina" (People's Patriotic Union), a former member of the faction "A Just Russia - "Motherland" (People's Patriotic Union)" (until January 2007 - the Rodina faction). Member of the Movement against Illegal Emigration. Active propagandist of the Russian national idea.

Andrey Nikolaevich Savelyev was born on August 8, 1962 in the city of Svobodny, Amur Region. In 1979 he graduated from school, in 1985 - Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology. From 1985 to 1990 he worked at the Institute of Chemical Physics and the Institute of Energy Problems of Chemical Physics. In 1990, he graduated from graduate school, receiving the academic degree of Candidate of Physical and Mathematical Sciences (specialty in chemical physics). In the same year, he became a deputy of the Moscow City Council (he worked on the commissions on the consumer market and on the affairs of public organizations, then became director of the Public Center of the Moscow City Council). He worked there until the liquidation of the Moscow City Council in 1993.

In 1992, Savelyev became interested in political science. In 1993 he completed two courses at the Moscow Law Institute, and in 1994 he completed courses for stock market specialists. In 1995-1998 he worked in a number of analytical centers, at the Russian Social and Political Center. In 1998 he went to work at the International Congress of Russian Communities. In 1999, he became an adviser to the State Duma deputy of the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation Dmitry Rogozin, who then held the post of chairman of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs and special representative of the president for Kaliningrad. Remained in this position until 2003.

In 2000, Savelyev defended his doctoral dissertation in political science (specializing in “political institutions and processes”). In November 2002 - April 2003 he worked in Kaliningrad as an analyst of the Rogozin Bureau (he held the position of chief of staff of the bureau).

In December 2003, Savelyev was elected to the State Duma from the Rodina (People's Patriotic Union) association. This association, which included the Party of Russian Regions, the Socialist Unity Party and the National Revival Party "People's Will", was created on September 14, 2003 to participate in the elections. In the State Duma, Savelyev joined the Committee on Constitutional Legislation and State Building, and was later elected deputy chairman of the committee. He was included in the Duma Accounting Commission.

On January 21, 2005, Savelyev joined the hunger strike announced by representatives of the Rodina faction. This hunger strike was announced after deputies learned that the State Duma’s agenda did not include consideration of an alternative statement “On the negative social consequences of replacing benefits with cash payments.” Together with Savelyev, party chairman Dmitry Rogozin, as well as deputies Oleg Denisov, Ivan Kharchenko and Mikhail Markelov, were going to go on hunger strike. Markelov promised journalists that the hunger strike process would be broadcast around the clock on the party website, “so that there are no provocations and reproaches.”

A week after the start of the hunger strike, Savelyev was hospitalized with a diagnosis of low blood sugar. The remaining deputies stopped their hunger strike in early February 2005. Their demands (the resignation of the Minister of Health Mikhail Zurabov, the Minister of Finance Alexei Kudrin and the Minister of Economic Development and Trade German Gref; the introduction of a moratorium on the law on the monetization of benefits; the creation of an emergency commission to find ways out of the current crisis) were never fulfilled.

At the end of March 2005, Savelyev’s name appeared in the media in connection with a fight in the State Duma. It was reported that Savelyev got into a fight with LDPR leader Vladimir Zhirinovsky. Zhirinovsky told reporters that he had filed an application with the Russian Prosecutor General's Office demanding that criminal cases be opened against Savelyev and the head of the Rodina faction, Rogozin. In response, deputies from the Communist Party of the Russian Federation and Rodina began collecting signatures for the recall of Zhirinovsky from the post of vice-speaker. They also suggested that their colleagues deprive Zhirinovsky of parliamentary immunity and declared a boycott on him, but this proposal was not accepted, and in April 2005 Savelyev still had to testify at the Prosecutor General's Office in connection with the fight.

In June 2005, shortly after a massive power outage in Moscow and the region, Savelyev suggested that deputies request data from the government on the salaries of members of the board of directors and the board of RAO UES of Russia, as well as the heads of regional energy enterprises that are part of the holding. The State Duma approved his proposal. On June 16, Savelyev took part in an action by representatives of the Moscow branch of the Rodina party, during which an inflatable effigy of the head of RAO UES of Russia, Anatoly Chubais, was launched into the sky. As Savelyev explained, in this way his party comrades sent Chubais into “retirement” ahead of schedule and can hold a similar action on the occasion of the birthday of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

At the beginning of October 2005, Rogozin, Savelyev and their party comrade Alexander Babakov introduced amendments to the law on the status of foreigners in Russia to the State Duma. Deputies proposed banning foreigners from trading in markets, citing the need to protect Russian producers. Experts from the Center for Political Technologies, the Carnegie Center and the Levada Center believed that on the eve of the Moscow City Duma elections, the Rodina party tried to play on xenophobic sentiments, thus hoping to secure the support of Muscovites.

After it became known in the summer of 2006 about the upcoming merger of Rodina and the Russian Party of Life of the Speaker of the Federation Council Sergei Mironov, Savelyev sharply criticized what was happening. When the unification of Rodina, RPZh and the Russian Party of Pensioners, which joined them, led to the creation of a new party, A Just Russia, the politician said: “They (A Just Russia) stole our legal powers. Moreover, from 150 thousand of our supporters there was a status - a member of the Rodina party, which has now been stolen from them." He also added that he had every reason to file a lawsuit, but this statement had no consequences. Savelyev remained a member of the Rodina faction, which changed its name in January 2007 to A Just Russia - Rodina (People's Patriotic Union).

At the end of September 2006, Savelyev joined the ranks of the Movement Against Illegal Immigration (DPNI). He became the first parliamentarian to join the movement, known for its xenophobic slogans. As the deputy explained to journalists, while working on the issue of migration in the State Duma, he discovered that the position of the DPNI was very close to him. Savelyev denied the accusations of extremism that were repeatedly made against the movement. According to him, the Kremlin specifically launched a campaign against the movement because it fears for its own future and is trying to shift all responsibility for interethnic conflicts in the country onto the DPNI.

In October 2006, the media reported that Savelyev joined the public council for the preparation of the nationalist “Russian March” - an action that DPNI first organized in 2005. At that time the action was called “Right March”, and several people took part in it and came to the event with Nazi and fascist symbols. After this march in Russia they started talking about fascism raising its head. The prefecture of the Central Administrative District of Moscow banned the DPNI from holding a march in 2006, citing “large construction work on Myasnitskaya” that could interfere with the passage of columns of demonstrators. DPNI continued to seek permission - this time from the Moscow mayor's office - to hold the event, but on October 31, the head of the city administration, Yuri Luzhkov, announced his decision to ban the "Russian March".

In December 2006, at the restoration congress of the Congress of Russian Communities, Savelyev was elected a member of the presidium of the Rodina. KRO movement.

In May 2007, the founding congress of the new political party "Great Russia" took place. Despite the fact that its founders were Rogozin’s KRO and Belov’s DPNI, both politicians did not become party leaders: Savelyev was elected chairman of Great Russia for a term of four years. At the congress, representatives were also elected to the governing bodies of the party, its charter was adopted and the party symbol was approved - the Ussuri tiger in a jump. A few days later, Savelyev was summoned to the Basmanny prosecutor's office in Moscow, where he was interrogated by an investigator for more than two hours. According to the politician himself, his call to the investigator was connected with a request to the Prosecutor General’s Office of the Russian Federation on behalf of the LDPR faction supported by United Russia with a request to check with what funds “Great Russia” is being created and whether disgraced businessman Boris Berezovsky is financing this party. “I hope that I have fully satisfied the investigator’s curiosity, since there were no illegal actions on the part of the party organizers,” Savelyev said.

In July 2007, the Federal Registration Service (Rosregistration) refused to register Great Russia as a party. Among the reasons for the refusal were “problems in the charter,” as well as an insufficient number of party members (according to the law, there must be at least 50 thousand people). Experts who commented on what happened considered the refusal to register Great Russia to be a political decision. However, Savelyev announced his intention to challenge the decision of Rosregistration in court (according to him, the charter of “Great Russia” “letter for letter” coincides with the charter of the “A Just Russia” party, headed by the Speaker of the Federation Council Sergei Mironov).

At the end of August 2007, Savelyev announced that all the changes necessary, according to him, for successful registration, had been made to the charter documents of Great Russia. On August 23, the party resubmitted documents to Rosregistration, and on September 24, 2007, it was again rejected.

In September 2007, Savelyev left the A Just Russia - Rodina (People's Patriotic Union) faction in the State Duma. The media associated his action with the transition to the “right side” of one of the leaders of the LDPR, Alexei Mitrofanov. However, Savelyev himself stated that “this is just an excuse,” and the reason for his departure is that “SR is the direct opposite of the Rodina party.”

On September 13, 2007, Rogozin, Savelyev, as well as the leader of the Patriots of Russia party Gennady Semigin and the head of the Revival of Russia Party Gennady Seleznev signed an agreement to create an electoral coalition "Motherland - Patriots of Russia". Thus, the predictions of analysts that Rogozin and Savelyev, if their party is not registered, could be included in the election list of “patriots” were justified (Semigin himself did not deny this). On September 24, 2007, the top three in the federal list of “Patriots of Russia” for the parliamentary elections was announced. As expected, it was headed by Semigin. Savelyev took first place on the party’s electoral list in the Moscow region. As a result of the parliamentary elections held in December 2007, Patriots of Russia did not get into the State Duma, gaining 0.89 percent of the votes.

In 2008, Savelyev became a member of the Russian Imperial Union-Order, despite the fact that back in 2005 he publicly swore allegiance to the head of the Russian Imperial House, Grand Duchess Maria Vladimirovna.

In May 2011, the KRO was officially registered by the Ministry of Justice as an international union of public associations to help compatriots. Savelyev at that time was a member of the KRO organizing committee. In August of the same year, the Ministry of Justice registered the all-Russian public organization "Motherland - Congress of Russian Communities".

On December 14, 2011, Savelyev announced his resignation from Rodina-KRO, explaining his decision by disagreement with the policies of Rogozin, who the day before had joined Putin’s campaign headquarters in the 2012 presidential elections, and had previously become United Russia’s representative in the parliamentary elections. 2011 elections , , . Savelyev said that “any cooperation with Putin is a stigma for the rest of your life,” and called on all like-minded people to follow their example.

Savelyev is the author of more than 300 scientific and journalistic articles, the author of the books “The Rebellion of the Nomenklatura” (1995), “The Ideology of the Absurd” (1995), “The Chechen Trap” (1997), “The Myth of the Masses and the Magic of Leaders” (1999), “Political Mythology "(2003), "Nation and State" (2005), "The Time of the Russian Nation" (2007), "The Image of the Enemy.

In December 2003, Andrei Nikolaevich was elected to the State Duma from the Rodina association. In the State Duma he joined the Committee on Constitutional Legislation and State Building, and was later elected deputy chairman of the committee. He was included in the Duma Accounting Commission.

On January 21, 2005, Savelyev joined the hunger strike within the walls of Parliament announced by representatives of the Rodina faction. This hunger strike was announced after deputies learned that the State Duma’s agenda did not include consideration of an alternative statement “On the negative social consequences of replacing benefits with cash payments.”

A week after the start of the hunger strike, Savelyev was hospitalized with a diagnosis of “low blood sugar.” The remaining deputies stopped their hunger strike in early February 2005.

Moreover, 150 thousand of our supporters had status - members of the Rodina party, which has now been stolen from them.”

We have heard a lot about Andrei Savelyev as a supporter of radical ideas of revival through the Russian nation, a fighter against illegal immigration, and the leader of the unregistered national-patriotic party “Great Russia”. By the way, the leading party propagandist was the current Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian government. But the paths of the comrades-in-arms diverged, since Savelyev considers any cooperation with the current government an indelible stigma.

Childhood and youth

Andrey Nikolaevich comes from the Far East, from the banks of the Amur. Born in August 1962 in a city with the non-trivial name Svobodny. In first grade, Andrei went to school No. 186 in Moscow, and completed his secondary education at Experimental School No. 82 of the Academy of Pedagogical Sciences, located in the Moscow region, in the village of Chernogolovka.

In 1985, Savelyev received a higher education at the Faculty of Physics and Mathematics of the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology. After graduating from university, he worked at specialized institutes of chemical physics and energy problems, while simultaneously studying in graduate school. He was awarded a Candidate of Science degree in chemical physics in 1990.

For two years, Andrei Savelyev tried to get a legal education, but did not graduate from the institute. The chauvinist’s biography includes some courses on mastering the basics of the stock market. In 2000 he defended his doctoral dissertation in political science.

Business and social activities

Savelyev’s activities for the benefit of society, as he understood it, began with his election as a deputy of the Moscow Soviet. After the predecessor of the Moscow City Duma was dissolved by decree of the President of the Russian Federation, Savelyev worked at the ROTC Foundation.

This was followed by the position of adviser to Dmitry Rogozin, who was then the head of the Russian State Duma Committee on International Affairs. In 2003, Andrei Nikolaevich himself sat in the deputy chair, representing the Rodina bloc.

In the lower house of the Russian parliament, he was elected to the position of deputy chairman of the Committee on CIS Affairs and Relations with Compatriots, then moved to the Committee on Constitutional Legislation and State Building.

During his time as a deputy, Savelyev was remembered for his participation in a public hunger strike of the Rodina faction, a fight with, launching a scarecrow, and a proposal to ban foreigners from trading in markets. The deputy’s name was included in the directory “Ultra-Right Radicals in Russia,” where he was named one of the ideologists of nationalism.

From 2004 to 2006 he was a member of the Rodina party and was a member of the presidium. After the change of leadership, the transformation of the party into “A Just Russia,” Savelyev, for ideological reasons, left its membership.

Since the mid-90s, Savelyev was a member of the leadership of the political association “Congress of Russian Communities”; he left the organization when its leader Dmitry Rogozin proposed that the KRO join the All-Russian Popular Front. The ONF, as you know, was created to support the elections of the head of state in 2012.

In February 2005, while still in public service, Andrei Savelyev took the oath of allegiance, considering himself the head of the Russian imperial house, whose claims to the throne, as is known, are not accepted by everyone. This fact is captured in a photo that is freely available on the Internet. The servant of the people did not give any explanation for his action.

2007 was marked by the creation of the Great Russia party, which Savelyev headed. Not without sarcasm, the new party leader said that after the founding congress he was summoned to the prosecutor's office, where they asked whether the disgraced businessman was financially supporting the party.

“Great Russia” was twice denied official registration. The coordinator of the cell in Murmansk was the well-known Miron Kravchenko, an activist of the organization “Christian State - Holy Rus'”, which in 2017 became famous for its threats against the distributors of the film “Matilda”.

Andrei Savelyev declared the goal of “Great Russia” to be the establishment of Russian national power. And it must be admitted that the organization’s ideas find supporters and are the subject of heated debate; videos are duplicated on the forums of various websites and LiveJournal platforms. On his LiveJournal page, Savelyev stated that the 2018 elections will be falsified, and falsification is already built into the very procedure for holding elections.

Savelyev chose YouTube as the main mouthpiece for national radical ideas, where he opened his own channel. On the hosting site, the politician publishes “Russian News” weekly, where he sets out his vision of the state of affairs in Russia, conducts conversations on topics of Russophobia, exposes the Kremlin’s policies, and shares his attitude towards former comrades.

Andrei Nikolaevich did not ignore the judicial system and the topic of removing the Russian team from the Olympics. The videos entitled “Who is “Mr. Putin?”, “The era of Putin is ending” received the largest number of views.

At the same time, Andrei posted details where like-minded people and sympathizers can transfer funds to cover party expenses.
