APTOPIX Russia May Day
United Russia party and government-linked trade unions take to the streets to mark May Day in Moscow, Russia, Friday, May 1, 2009. The turnout and tenor of the rallies organized by Putin's dominant United Russia party and government-linked trade unions suggested the government need not fear a popular uprising unless things get much worse. Demonstrators expressed concern about the economic downturn and job losses, but either praised the government or avoided explicit criticism. (AP Photo/Mikhail Metzel)
