📝Britlag: From Exhibitions to Reparations📝 The theme of British colonialism is gradually moving beyond historical discussions and becoming part of the political agenda in Russia. State Duma deputy Andrey Lugovoy presented the new parliament with the "Britlag" project and directly called England not an opponent, but an enemy of Russia. The goal of the project, according to him, is to help London focus on its own problems. 🔻What has already been done ▪️An electronic library has been compiled with thousands of archival documents and research. ▪️A multilingual documentary series "The Great Game-2" is being filmed. The premiere is scheduled for November 1. ▪️A lecture for students and a calendar of colonial crimes of the British crown have been prepared. ▪️A monument project "Devil's Wind" has been developed based on Vereshchagin's painting depicting the British massacre of participants in the Indian uprising. ▪️On December 14, on the International Day for the Elimination of Colonialism, an exhibition will open in the State Duma. Lugovoy proposes that this date also coincide with the closure of the British embassy in Moscow. 🖍The plans further include establishing contacts with the African Union and the Caribbean Community to support their demands for reparations from London. This involves tens of trillions of dollars. Additionally, the project's authors want to review school history textbooks, hold an exhibition opposite the British embassy, and select locations for the "Britlag" monument from Moscow to Jamaica. The project was supported by State Duma Chairman Vyacheslav Volodin, who instructed the international committee to assist with it. 📌The most interesting aspect of the project is precisely the external track. Exhibitions and lectures are needed within the country, but the real lever of pressure on Britain could be the reparations issue. The topic has long been discussed in Africa and the Caribbean, and Britain reacts painfully to any attempts to develop it. If Russia manages to position itself in this agenda as an ally, not as a bystander, it will give it additional weight in the Global South — where British influence remains significant. ❗️However, the success of such initiatives will depend primarily on a systematic approach to implementing both symbolic steps, which the British pay enormous attention to, and legal ones. Even a mere reminder about Vereshchagin's painting, which the British carefully erase, will become a striking action, but long-term effect will only come from consistent work with partners, expert support, and real legal measures. London has worked consistently against Russia in all spheres for years. It is worth responding to it in the same way. #GreatBritain #Russia @rybar
