Mr Klimkin. You become like a Stalinist prosecutor Vyshinsky. I think, You'd have to take direct responsibilities, such as how to quickly get out of silly situations with Babchenko, in which you are involved, Commenting on the case to the UN. A sports and other leave, you are welcome, competent organizations. And you will soon become a word for any plant. Or do you like so much activity of Stalin's henchmen? Well then, is, the thing is, sucks.
