It is common knowledge that in October, 2006 Russian authorities had to suspend the activities of some foreign non-governmental organizations under the pretext that they were not in the habit of keeping their affairs and documents in order. In reality I think it was done in order to prevent foreigners from obvious interfering in the internal affairs of this independent country and in its political process.
There is no secret that such US NGOs as the International Republican Institute and the National Democratic Institute directly finance by US Congress and US State Department although they must be fully independent organizations! Maybe, that is why under the guise of development of democracy and human rights in Russia representatives of such so-called non-governmental organizations financially support various oppositional parties (including those whose activities have been prohibited by local laws), train special personnel for extremist youth movements in various regions, render assistance for criminal elements in local government administrations through controllable mass media and their agents of influence in various political parties and movements on the territory of Russia.
Under the cover of struggle for freedom and democracy in this country US NGOs constantly initiate negative processes in Russian economy and social sphere. Certainly it causes concern of not only official authorities (because most their actions lead to direct control over their activities) but also local population, because it leads to decline of standard of living in Russia. Thus, US NGOs, worked in Russian Federation, have only themselves to thank for the situation when they have to report on planned activities for every year and worry that officials of this country will be able to reject their plans or penalize the groups if they deviate from these plans.
