Political group "Yes California" wants to organize a referendum in which the inhabitants of the federal states voted if they want California to become independent.

California is one of the countries in which most people voted for Hillary Clinton in the presidential elections in the United States. As soon as it was announced that he won Donald Trump, the "Yes, Calif." Intensified its efforts to realize its intention.

- California should become an independent state, separate from the United States - are considered supporters of this campaign, who coined the term Kalegzit modeled on Bregzit (Britain out of the EU).

Many say that the California sixth largest economy in the world and feel that independent could be a major global player.

- California is economically stronger than France and has more inhabitants than Polish. California can not be compared with other world countries, not only with those in the United States - stated on the website of the organization headed by Luis Marinelli.

"Washington Post" published an article about Marinelli, which emphasizes the fact that he lives no less than in Russia, a country that many US officials considered responsible for hacking emails Democratic Party and the defeat of their candidate in the elections.

His goal is to next year and a referendum for that purpose collect signatures.

His movement is not the only one who wants an independent California, in January by California rival National Party accused that "Putin's puppet."

Marinelli lives in Yekaterinburg and says that everyone keep asking why.

- And Barak Obama was born in Kenya, is not it? - Joked on.

- What am an English teacher in Yekaterinburg, does not mean that it comes to a conspiracy and that the Russian government has funded our movement. The fact that I had studied Russian at the University of St. Petersburg in 2007 or 2008 does not mean that I know Vladimir Putin, who graduated there in 1975 - says Marinelli.

Marinelli said he lived between the US, Russia from 2007 to 2011 and during this period met a Russian woman whom he had married. With her came to live in San Diego, but was followed by problems with a visa at their complicated marriage. His wife wanted to visit her family, but her visa has expired. Just when it seemed that these problems will be solved, but that if she went to Russia, she will be unable to return to the United States over the next ten years.

So he decided to go to Russia and then got a job as an English teacher. However, when he was to join his wife, it is still forbidden to leave the United States. So he now lives in Yekaterinburg and she remained stuck in San Diego, says Marinelli.

However, what is even more interesting to Americans, is a bond Marinelija and Jon Alexander, the founder of Russia's anti-globalization movement, a group that popularized secessionist movements across the globe.

Jon's allegedly organized an event last September in Moscow, which is sponsored by the Kremlin, and attended by Marinelli and other representatives of the movement "To California".

Jon said that 30 percent of finance for the event received from the Kremlin, but he denied that he in any way funded any movement from the United States.

I Marinelli said he had not received any money from the Kremlin, no help and he said he did not want to have a dialogue with Putin.

Russians say: If California becomes independent, we will of course be to blame

Prepare yourself: It is not enough as Russia chose the wrong America president, has now begun to destroy America itself. If the State of California withdraw from the composition of the United States, even if the movement to its separation begins to strengthen, we will again be blamed me. Makar is to be inferred from the text of the Washington Post, writes RIA Novosti political commentator Dmitry Kosirev.

As estimated Dmitrij Kosirev, text is not counting properly inventing ways to blame the Russians, very interesting.

The authors of "The Washington Post" do not even try seriously to tackle these topics: Why America does not like California. Sami readers do not touch these topics. The thing is that in the US one of those things that are not necessary explanations.

ANSWER RUSSIAN BARTER Crimea is OUR COUNTRY, will be returned to Ukraine!

TRAMP PRESSURE PUTINA US President is expected to return from Moscow Crimea

Selection Trump is otherwise awoke local separatists. The question is why. The answer to it is the same as the question why California does not like the rest of America. The thing is, in the opinion of very specific people who live in the "golden state", explains Kosirev.

On the one hand, Calif keep other countries. On the other, the separatists explain how much it would cost the state to run out of quite a large number of military bases and American companies.

Of course, it is not just about California. We talk about how to make this country their departure could retreat and Oregon and Washington, and the west coast of America. And the northern part of the East Coast, especially New York. By the way, to the "blue" states that voted for Democrats, reminds RIA Novosti commentator.
