    Hello to Russian elites! hi Next face your people. Suddenly your attempts will be appreciated in the West. Poland, for example, doesn’t put you in a penny. So, whatever one may say, you’ll have to live with the Russian people. But how to live? This is the second question. Enterprises with jobs in Russia are not needed !? Raw materials are our FSE.
