Concept<\/em>
\nThe politics of fear, instigated and legalized since the attacks of 9\/11 are leading to a normalization of repressive formats and even his inteorizaci\u00f3n.

Kronstadt<\/em> is a Russian port city, on the island of Kotlin, 30 km. west of St. Petersburg. The General Command of the Russian Federation Navy and the Russian General Base Baltic Fleet are located on the island, due to its strategic location in the defense of the city of St. Petersburg.<\/p>\n
