Komi II.

This is coolbert:

Yet more the Komi people go to war! Not all with enthusiasm.

Thanks to the story from "7 X 7 Horizontal Russia" |15 FEBRUARY that tip from yahoo.com.

"A member of the Komi legislative assembly, earlier included on the 'foreign agents' list, is fined 100 thousand rubles for his anti-war video message"

"The court imposed a fine of 100 thousand rubles ($1,460) on Viktor Vorobyov, a member of the Komi legislative assembly, for his anti-war demands. On February 28, he published a video on the VKontakte social network, in which he spoke against the military action in Ukraine. Vorobiev, who in December was included on the «foreign agents» list, told the 7x7 media about the fine on February 14."  

"The court fined Viktor Vorobyov, a member of the State Council of the Komi Republic, who is also included on the foreign agents list, 100 thousand rubles for a video against the military operations in Ukraine. The police filed a report against him for 'abusing the freedom of mass information'"
