	Militsiya
		Militsiya (; ; literally "militia") is the short official name of the police in the Soviet Union and Warsaw Pact states, inherited by some post-Soviet states: Russia, Ukraine, Belarus and some others.
		One reason why the name "militsiya" has persisted after the Communist system collapsed, may be to avoid confusion with the astonishing number and variety of words which start with pol- in Russian and related languages.
		In a 1995 poll of the public, only 5 % of respondents expressed confidence in the ability of the militsiya to deal with crime in their city.

		Having won the October Revolution, the Bolsheviks dismissed the tsarist police forces and formed all-proletarian Workers' and Peasants' Militsiya under NKVD of the Russian SFSR.
		This fight was never successful because of the deficiencies of the planned economy which resulted in shortages of goods and thus allowed high-margin speculation.
		By the mid-1980s, the image of the people's militsiya was largely compromised by the corruption and disorderly behaviour of both enlisted and officer staff (the most shocking case was the robbery and murder of a KGB operative by a gang of militioners stationed in Moscow Metro in 1983).

		As a state that abandoned the traditions of the totalitarian state only in 1991, Russia should pay particular attention to respecting the rights of all of its citizens, including gays and lesbians.
		Banning a peaceful demonstration that was supposed to draw attention to the problems of Russian homosexuals, using the militsiya and special services not to protect the demonstrators, but to arrest or beat them, are deplorable acts that deserve to be condemned by the international community.
		Russia, as a member country of the Council of Europe and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, is obliged to observe the fundamental human rights: freedom of gathering, freedom of conscience, freedom of expression, or freedom of association.
