[KavkazUzel] Activist of the movement “Building the Future Ourselves” Stalina Erlenbach reported that during the search the security forces were looking for extremist materials from her, and connected the search with her demand to nominate Svetlana Lada-Rus as a candidate for the presidency of Russia.
As the "Caucasian Knot" reported, on February 15, searches were conducted at the activists of the radical movement "Building the Future Ourselves" Maria Karnaukhova in Stavropol and at Stalina Erlenbach in Nevinnomyssk.
The movement “Building the Future Ourselves” was previously called the “Volya Party”, the “National Union for the Revival of Russia”, the “Union of Wives and Mothers of Military Personnel” (also referred to as the Council of Mothers and Wives,” note of the “Caucasian Knot” ). SOTA reported on February 15.
During searches, supporters of the “Build the Future Ourselves” movement were searched for extremist materials, said activist Stalin Erlenbach. "At 07.00 on the morning of February 15th, the Center for Emergency Control officers came to our home with a search. It all started when we heard a crash at the gate, my son came out to them, found out that they had come to me, and called me. It turned out that these were the Center for Emergency Monitoring officers. They gave me read the court order about the search. Immediately they started filming me, I wanted to take a photo too, but they didn’t let me. I suggested they talk through the fence, but the security officer began to climb over the fence, and then my son opened the gate,” she told the “Caucasian Knot” correspondent.
According to her, the security forces found nothing. "They entered the house, tried to communicate in a raised voice, shout, but I made a remark and said that I could hear well. They took the phone, did not allow me to call or write to anyone. The same thing with my son. We could not contact anyone, inform, what's going on. We walked around the rooms, searched, but found nothing. I don't have anything extremist or prohibited. We just want order in the country and wrote a statement demanding that Lada-Rus come to power. The security forces filled out a protocol, wrote, that they didn’t find anything and left,” the activist said.
The website of the movement “Building the Future Ourselves” contains a video from December 2023 with the title “Russia will nominate Lada-Rus for president,” in which members of the movement nominate her as a presidential candidate.
The searches are related to the civic position of the activists, says blogger Alina Lushavina. “As far as I know, they filed the same statement as I did against Putin, that he could be a foreign agent,” she told the “Caucasian Knot” correspondent. In her opinion, this was the reason for the search. She noted that Maria Karnaukhova was also not detained after the search.
An expert at the SOVA Research Center, Mikhail Akhmetyev, emphasized that supporters of Lada-Rus have always been active offline. “I don’t know the exact number of supporters of Svetlana Peunova (Lada-Rus) and, moreover, I’m not ready to say whether there are many or few of them (or anyone else) specifically in the Stavropol region. But this is definitely not only an Internet phenomenon - quite the contrary, they were always active offline. As far as I remember, their congresses consistently attracted several hundred people.
Recently there have been more or fewer of them due to the attempts of the Peunovites to promote themselves as the “Council of Mothers and Wives” on the topic of protecting the rights of military personnel - I don’t know exactly ", he told the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent.
On August 9, 2016, the Supreme Court of Russia upheld the claim of the Ministry of Justice for the liquidation of the all-Russian political party "Volya" in connection with the dissemination of extremist materials. Leader Svetlana Peunova (Lada-Rus) was put on the international wanted list and arrested in absentia. Criminal cases have been initiated against her for fraud (Article 159 of the Criminal Code of Russia) and intentional infliction of grievous bodily harm (Part 3 of Article 111, Article 159 of the Criminal Code of Russia).
Akhmetyev noted that supporters of Lada-Rus during the Palestinian-Israeli conflict declared an anti-Semitic position. “They have included this war in their traditional conspiracy theories, which have an anti-Semitic connotation. That is, they believe that behind all major events in the world there is a secret world government of globalists, that it was the globalists who provoked Hamas to attack Israel.
| Someone has read the Russian classic, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion... |
And ultimately In general, globalists want to establish a new world order without religions, races, chip everyone, and so on,” Akhmetyev described the worldview of Lada-Rus supporters.

Chairman of the Stavropol Union of Journalists Vasily Balditsyn noted that he does not know supporters of the “Building the Future Ourselves” movement in the region. “I don’t know any representatives of this organization in Stavropol. They are not particularly popular. I know a lot of “movements” in our public sphere, but here I haven’t even seen any “movements”,” he told the “Caucasian Knot” correspondent.
According to him, in the Stavropol region as a whole there are no organizations that are considered radical. “Now they don’t exist at all. Apart from various underground comrades, we don’t have any radical organizations or movements. All of them that, relatively speaking, were raging, dispersed and became quiet,” he noted.
