Spoiling FSB professional holiday (3 years in a row)

December 20 is “Chekist Day” in Russia, a professional holiday for the state security agencies. On this day, FSB officers celebrate their achievements, boast about their awards, and drink to the health of their colleague in the presidential chair. The human rights project “First Department” was also created on this day exactly three years ago, and since then it has effectively opposed the most powerful repressive mechanism in the country.
