Abbas likes it

Having failed to achieve success in international politics, the Kremlin decided to focus on its external side. In gratitude for the fact that the head of the Palestinian Authority went to Moscow on his first foreign visit, he is received as the leader of a foreign state. And he does not remain in debt. At a meeting with Boris Gryzlov, Mahmoud Abbas said that “the Russian parliament is a symbolic imprint of the democratic processes that are taking place in your country.” Either he admired it, or he was subtly sarcastic.
