William Pokhlyobkin's proposal

flag design
by Victor Lomantsov, 05 Mar 2002

In the last year I have read in the newspaper Nezavisimaya Gazeta big article of William Pokhlyobkin (historian-scandinavist, author of several books about cooking (!) & symbolic etc., etc.) with her proposition for new flag of Russia: red background (because only red is russian national colour), in center — big golden star (= Russian people, because it hasn't own national state, for ex. "Russian republic"), by circle — small golden stars (by number of subjects of federation, I don’t understand — national republic only or all subjects). Very similar with idea of European Union.

Famous writer William Pokhlyobkin (author of Vocabulary of symbols and emblems in russian). He was against the tricolor. Probably, 21 stars symbolize 21 authonom. republics of Russia.
