On Twitter, Internet users wonder: Fake or not. […] MPs call for Putin’s impeachment…“It may seem surprising in a country held by an iron fist by Vladimir Putin, but it is not a fake. A document attesting to this was shared by Dmitry palyugaan elected municipal official of the city of Saint Petersburg (Russia). With his City Council, he asks the deputies of the State Duma, that is to say the Russian Parliament, to lodge a complaint against the President of the Russian Federation.

According to him, Vladimir Putin, with his invasion of Ukraine, would have been guilty of high treason. Asking parliamentarians to initiate impeachment proceedings against the Russian president is perfectly legal. It is part of the legislative arsenal of the country. This procedure, on the other hand, has very little chance of being initiated by the elected members of the Duma. Following this request, the elected officials of Saint Petersburg were summoned by the police. Dmitry palyuga was fined 47,000 rubles, or about 800 euros. This gesture of defiance is a reminder that, despite fierce repression against dissenting voices, there remains a form of opposition to Vladimir Putin in Russia.
