It's Kasyanova's birthday

Now it’s even strange to remember that once the cabinet of ministers headed by Mikhail Kasyanov was called “technical”. Compared to Fradkov's, it looks like an influential and independent institution of state power. Meanwhile, throughout the past year there have been very contradictory rumors about the future of Kasyanov himself. They either said that he would engage in consulting activities, or they foreshadowed his imminent departure into politics. Moreover, in absentia, Mikhail Mikhailovich was assigned the role of “Russian Yushchenko.”
