| Braving miserable cold, snow and a fierce wind, these protesters registered their disapproval of the government's economic policies. |
More than 100,000 pensioners, workers and students took to the St. Petersburg streets Thursday in a nationwide protest against the crisis in wage arrears. Photographers from The St. Petersburg Times were there to record it.
