Are You laugh?@marrakesh, is this the real reason for your sudden interest in Karelia?
Karelia is the last of the Russian opposition mayor - now Putin's supporters are trying to smoke him out
Opposition noisy street demonstrations, open to the media war and businessmen from the opposition ranks. Russian Karelia, seething in a way that has been exceptional in Russia after the Crimean conquest.
The mayor Galina Širšina, 36, sits in his office in Petrozavodsk run-down city hall and smiles as if he would not be at the center of a political storm. Russia's last opposition mayor of the window overlooking the windy Lake Onega.
"I do not count the days. However, town councilors have already openly talking about the premature resignation."
"I'm not afraid. As long as I am given time, as long as I work for the benefit of our city."

The opposition party Yabloko activist Gadirov Gadir shared the Director of the Republic of Karelia Alexander Hudilaisen difference demanding slips of paper in June in Petrozavodsk. The police came to the scene to oust him.

Pressures around Širšinan are constantly increasing. His supporters sitting in pre-trial detention and under house arrest on charges of economic crimes. Opposition says suspicions are political.
Some of the accused or their representatives who agree to speak only nimettä, others have been intimidated to silence entirely.
The mayor's main sponsor and the opposition party Yabloko local leader Vasily Popov was forced to flee to Finland
