Sergei Tchaikovsky, schoolboy:

At this point you are probably wondering why to a young guy do you need all this? Good question, Dmitry Anatolyevich. Now I'm 18 years old. Although I am very young, believe me, in my life I have seen a lot, except for the most important thing in a democratic state - the change of power. Now in our country there are not the most better times, and this is partly the merit of you and Vladimir Vladimirovich. No, I don’t want to blame you for all the troubles and say that you are to blame for everything... You and your colleagues could now fly on private jets and post cool photos on Instagram. But what is the government doing now for pensioners? In fact, it’s just 60 rubles, which you can’t even buy pills with. What does the government do for the country? Introduces a resort tax? Transmits Saint Isaac's Cathedral ROC? Persecuting gays in Chechnya? Or maybe he is embezzling the budget at the Zenit Arena? Now your government is trying with all its might to keep power to itself. I understand it's very difficult to leave warm place. But the time comes, Dmitry Anatolyevich. Probably at this moment you are thinking, what kind of extremist is writing to you? But no, I’m far from an extremist, I’m one of the many true patriots of my country who can no longer look at all your crimes.

I am writing this letter specifically on the eve of May 9th. After all, this is a great holiday. 72 years ago we defeated a terrible enemy and saved the whole world and our country. Now the younger generation has a very difficult task - to save the country from what you did during your reign. Dmitry Anatolyevich, if you are a true patriot of your country, if it is important to you further fate Russia, then I ask you to resign...

It also became known that on April 13, the student submitted an application to the Investigative Committee demanding an investigation into possible facts corruption on a particularly large scale.

“My name is Sergei Tchaikovsky, and I am a volunteer of the Tomsk Headquarters of Alexei Navalny and a member of the socio-political network movement “Open Russia”.

As you know, on March 2, 2017, the Anti-Corruption Foundation published an investigative film on YouTube called “He’s Not Dimon to You.” This film was dedicated to you and your activities. The Anti-Corruption Foundation claims that with the help of your proxies you were able to build a criminal scheme based on non-profit foundations. At the beginning of March, I also managed to get acquainted with this film and full description investigations on the FBK website. It says that the total amount of your crimes is approximately equal to 70 billion Russian rubles. In mid-March, the head of the FBK, Alexey Navalny, announced rallies across the country in support of the demand to investigate the facts of corruption of senior Russian officials. In the city of Tomsk, I helped organize this rally.

Quite recently, pensioner Viktor Smirnyagin from the Tomsk region sent you by money transfer his increase in pension in the amount of sixty rubles, but you refused to accept the transfer. You know, some people accuse me of doing all this for PR. Although this is not true, people have a right to this opinion. But no one can imagine that Viktor Smirnyagin sent you a transfer of 60 rubles in order to gain some kind of fame. He did this purely because it is simply a mockery when our pensioners are given an extra 60 rubles. These people worked all their lives for the benefit of our country. They worked to

Dmitry Anatolyevich, if you are a true patriot of your country, if the future fate of Russia is important to you, then I ask you to resign. But that is not all. On April 13, I submitted a statement to the Investigative Directorate of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation for the Tomsk Region that you may have committed crimes of corruption on an especially large scale. But the Investigation Department refused to allow me to conduct an inspection of your activities. Now I am going to appeal this decision and seek an independent investigation into your activities. And now, as a citizen Russian Federation, I am not asking, but demanding that you make reasonable comments regarding the fact that you are accused of corruption. And this should be a reasoned answer, and not like “Compote”. I hope for your sincerity."

Previously, Vitaly Khovansky, history and life safety teacher at Russian Classical Gymnasium No. 2, gave a lecture to schoolchildren on countering extremism. He accused the students of fascism, called them “slaves of the Anglo-Saxons” and stated that the main mood in society was “to bury you all.” Tchaikovsky recorded this on a tape recorder.

In early March, FBK published an investigation into Medvedev’s “secret empire.” The Foundation claims that the Prime Minister, through shell funds and proxies, owns several estates, as well as yachts, apartments, an agricultural complex, wineries in Russia and Italy and other objects.

Medvedev himself called the investigation “nonsense”, his press secretary Natalya Timakova - “attacks of an opposition and convicted character.”

After the investigation was released on March 26, protests against corruption were held in almost a hundred Russian cities, most of which were not coordinated.

To be honest, I am surprised, if not amazed. In my distant youth, there were also letters of this kind. Samantha Smith comes to mind, but she wrote to the leader of another country.
