Over the last few days, in the advent of the elections where United Russia, protesters have been rallying in Bolotnaya Square against the corruption they perceive in Russia.
What do you think of them from what we know so far? Do you believe they'll be able to snowball into a revolution? Or do you think it'll make an impact on the election or cause any changes in government? Or do you think it'll just be suppressed and have no effect on anything in Russia? Any thoughts?
