Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

17. • The initial forecast estimates that we begin the
budget development process with $4.7M deficit.
• We anticipate many new initiative requests from
departments.
• We cannot balance the GF budget for FY17-18 (or
future years) at current property tax rate.
• GF fund balance is projected to increase - can be
used but best practice is to only use it for one-time
expenses.
