In North Ossetia, group of citizens insists on closing "Electrozink"

In North Ossetia, a group named "Electrozink. What do we breathe in?" created in the social Internet-based network "Odnoklassniki.Ru" is not going to stop its activities and continues demanding to close the "Electrozink" factory, despite replacement of the enterprise bosses.

"Appointment of a new director to 'Electrozink' had no effect on our efforts. Moreover, we believe that it was not connected in any way with Mamsurov's statements and with the picket. It won't stop us," the coordinator of the group Alana Murashova told the "Caucasian Knot".

"We talk about violations of ecological legislation. We strain all our efforts in the fight for our right to fight. The work moves on. Now, we're registering our organization. I believe that it's a huge step, when emotions and intentions get transformed into actions," said Ms Murashova.

The group is growing and already exceeds 4000 persons. After registration of the organization, they plan to hold an official rally; so far, they are sending messages to the blog of the President of Russia.
