Submission + - Depute Alksnis threatens to close russian internet
Nephrite writes: "The conflict between Rodina faction Depute Viktor Alksnis and Timofey Shevyakov, well-known blogger, historian and member of the Efficient Politics Fund, started two weeks ago. In the course of discussion in Alksniss blog (v_alksnis.livejournal.com) Mr. Shevyakov (tarlith.livejournal.com) said the former was either a liar or a fool. Alknis threatened with filing a criminal complaint against him, after which the discussion flowed into indecent conversation. On the February 22nd the conflict was highlighted on TV: O2TV held a talk show with Alksis and Shevyakov. However, they didnt find it easy to talk to each other this time either.
