The head of promotion of White Rex spoke Euroradio that has nothing in common with Nazism, and explained why in its show don't fight Caucasians .

The Russian company White Rex declared the debut tournament in Minsk ― on the third of August in Gagarin club. Let's remind that this organization in internet often accuse of neo-Nazi tendencies. On one of tournaments which the company arranged, Maxim "Tesak" Martsinkevich whom many consider as the neo-Nazi fought, for example, well-known in Minsk. And on White Rex clothes some see the disguised far right symbols.

"With pride we hurry to report that the tournament announced earlier on the mixed single combats of White Rex will take place on August 3 in the capital Béla Rusi, the well-known city of Minsk, ― is spoken on an official site of the organization. ― We are sure that competitions in Minsk ― it is an important step in development of fighting sports in the environment of healthy white youth and strengthening of friendly bonds between fraternal peoples".

In the Minsk club "Gagarin" of Euroradio confirmed that tournament really will take place.

"For us this simply sporting event, no forbidden symbolics there will exist, ― considers Alexander Budnitsky responsible for ideology in Gagarin club. ― About a question of carrying out tournament I once again will consult in executive committee".

Future tournament already did publicity on the Internet, the question is actively discussed on social networks.

The president of the White Rex company Denis Nikitin quickly reacted to the appeal of Euroradio and directly answered inconvenient questions.

Denis Nikitin: "The poster about tournament hangs two weeks, competent authorities gave on this permission. It is strange that any discussions" now began.

Euroradio: White Rex accuse of neo-nazism. "White" take part in your tournaments, for example, only. How you will comment on it?

Denis Nikitin: "We have fighters of different nationalities ― Germans, Romanians, Italians, French, Russians, Belarusians, Ukrainians. It is wrong to reduce our tournaments to policy ―. Yes, we seek to hold our competitions without representatives of the Caucasus, it is caused by safety issues. In St. Petersburg, for example, there was a free-style wrestling championship of Russia where Ingushs fought with Dagestanis. There was a championship of Moscow on muay-thaw two years ago where Dagestanis beat the Russian trainer and the bad situation which was solved by two buses with OMON began. We hold tournaments including in Rostov, Krasnodar. These are explosive points where mass fights with participation of Caucasians" aren't necessary to me.

Denis Nikitin: "As for shorts with runes, such model isn't issued any more. And I don't think that коловрат ― it is the forbidden symbol. It is present both at ours, and at your mythology since Kievan Rus'. There is the well-known brochure of UEFA with which like to stick into a nose. There speech is conducted about communication with esesovsky divisions, with their symbolics. I don't see symbolics of the Third Reich in the production. But there are people who see Hitler's shadow and threat in everything and everywhere. I consider charges of promotion of neo-Nazi symbolics as marasmus, we go in for sports".

Euroradio: And why tournament decided to hold in Minsk?

Denis Nikitin: "It is natural. There are guys from Minsk who took part in our shows, there are good communications with the sports organizations".

Euroradio: Maxims "Tesak" Martsinkevich too took part in your tournaments. What reputation at it, is well known …

Denis Nikitin: "Through our tournament in a year passes about one thousand people. People adhere to different political views. It not strongly excites me. When in final tournament which took place in Moscow, Maxim participated, for me the promotion element was important. When he fought, translation +10 thousand people started looking. For us in respect of promotion it there was a successful PR course. And in Maxim's activity I don't see appeals to executions, riots and other extremist actions. It and truth showman. The person can have different political views. I think, something occurs and in the Russian football Premier league: players adhere to different views. But from it the League doesn't become nazi, anti-fascist or anarchist. I invite you to tournament, and I assure that political you won't see anything".

Euroradio: But to see something really seditious in the White Rex tournaments it is difficult. The president of the company too doesn't eulogize Hitler. Fighters have opportunity to get good experience. Tournaments at us it is carried out a little.

Anti-fascist: "Even if head of White Rex ― ordinary businessman, his target audience ― neo-Nazis. Let on them also can make good money. It would seem, these people put forward the correct slogans of the plan "healthy lifestyle". But there are no good ideas where normally to praise Hitler and to shout "zig-hayl". Recently White Rex held tournament in Rome, and the Casa Pound organization which doesn't hide the "fascist views" was co-organizers there.

In this material we stated the different points of view concerning tournament. We hope that competent experts will understand, whether there corresponds the show White Rex concept to the Belarusian legislation.

As Euroradio became known, Nikolay Cherginets ― the chairman of public council on moral became interested in a question also. The figure just in case checks, whether there corresponds the tournament concept to the Belarusian legislation.

If the declared tournament ― and the truth purely sporting event, doesn't be desirable that because of this material it was cancelled.
