Limonka (Russian: Лимонка) is a Moscow-based newspaper. Limonka is the official organ of the National Bolshevik Party. The name is a play of words on Limonov and is idiomatic Russian for grenade.

History

Limonka was founded by Eduard Limonov and it was first published in 1994. It was forced to change its name to General Line after the authorities banned it for "promoting extremism and calling on overthrowing the constitutional order".[1] Since then, Limonka was printed in large letters under General Line in a smaller font, along with the note that the paper hasn't come out since September 20, 2002

Content

Limonka' is stylized into punk zine.[2][3] The newspaper contains articles on radical politics, counterculture[4] and "acute" social issues. The newspaper also publishes reports from street protests and direct actions.
