Any attempts to organize street unrest in Moscow to be suppressed - Mayor Sobyanin

MOSCOW. March 1 (Interfax) - Moscow authorities have said that any attempts to organize street riots in the city will be suppressed, asking "not to give in to the calls of provocateurs."

"Please do not give in to the calls of provocateurs. [...] All attempts to organize street unrest will be consistently suppressed," Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said in his blog.

He said that the "calls of the provocateurs" seek to "undermine the management of the city and create an atmosphere of chaos, which we saw not so long ago in the very same Kazakhstan."
