The flag of the Межрегиональная общественная организация ВЕЧЕ (English:
Interregional public organization VECHE), abbreviated as МОО "Вече", "veche"
being a popular assembly/(civic) council in medieval Slavic countries (source:
https://ru.wikipedia.org).
"It was established on April 26, 2009 by the decision of the conference of
users of the forum of the Internet portal INOFORUM.RU, protocol No. 1 dated
April 26, 2009. A community of citizens who have decided to move on to active
civic action and create their own public organization was formed on the basis of
the former "РИА Новости" (English: RIA Novosti) (a Russian state-owned domestic
news agency) internet project "иноСМИ" (English: inoSMI, a derivation from
Иностранные СМИ, "Foreign mass media"), which has been specializing in
translations and discussions of foreign press for more than five years. As a
result, in the period from March 10 to March 13, 2009, more than six thousand
participants of the INOSMI forum, living in different countries, of different
nationalities, of various citizenships, left the INOSMI resource, within a few
days raised funds based on voluntary donations from the members of the forum and
created a people's patriotic Internet project "Инофорум" (English: Inoforum).
On April 26, the founding conference of the organization was held. In May 2009
meetings of regional branches were held in St. Petersburg, Novosibirsk and
Moscow. On July 11, 2009, the first congress of the International Public
Organization "Veche" was held in Moscow, which was attended by delegates of
regional organizations, as well as guests and observers from other regions where
regional organizations have not yet been established.
