Communist Party and its successors Twenty years ago, November 6, 1991 decree of the President Boris Yeltsin of the RSFSR was closed Communist Party - Communist pariah Soviet Union. Its organizational structure was dissolved, its property - confiscated.The fact remains there is still alive is something of an ideological legacy of the Communist Party and the Communist Party is a successor of the current party in power, says Gleb Cherkasov, editor of the politics of the newspaper "Kommersant".
- The Communist Party was the successor to the Communist Party?
- No way! Communist Party of the RSFSR became heir, created in the 90th year. There is not even the territorial coincidence, but the fact that the Communist Party of Ivan Polozkov was originally in opposition. It was initially an attempt to counterbalance the team Yeltsin. Communist Party in the first second of his birth was also in opposition. She never really been able to touch the state resources. And this feeling that the party always in opposition, forming the consciousness of people who belong to this party. On the other hand, the Communist Party are increasingly people who see it as not so much a defense of communist ideals or national-patriotic rhetoric, and the only real opposition, which somehow can protect their votes. Due to this influx, the comparator more difficult to maintain internal unity, because it is very heterogeneous within. The entire cycle between elections Zyuganov tries to keep a certain balance. In this sense, of course, the Communist Party is not the heir to the Communist Party, although the Communist Party considers himself the heir, successor of the history and wrote that the party - "continuer of Lenin - Stalin."
- And who then took the baton to the Communist Party? It should be understood that this "party of power"?
