Hero of the week. Mintimer Shaimiev

Khan of Kazan Shaimiev Mintimer leaves
In a moderate vegetarian way:
The Rubicon will pass, not overthrown, not removed.
In two thousand and ten, as required by law.

He is subject to the press, he is menacing to the elites,
God himself commands him to endure, a heavyweight,
In the Kremlin - and then out of fear - they did not take measures,
When he suddenly ran into the EP.

Tired of authority, Mintimer leaves -
Not like any other governor or mayor,
A tough servant of the people, under the burden of sins
Fearful of leaving, like, in particular, Luzhkov.

All efforts were in vain: he said goodbye out loud
To the friendly groans of the tireless servants:
“A good genius, a great man, is leaving!”
The new century does not tolerate reigns for life.

What to do! It’s not for nothing that dirt doesn’t stick to it:
He managed to leave his post without fear of consequences.
Someone else, even if he sinks into eternity, will not leave his office,
Because tyrants have no other way.

But, unafraid of adversity, Mintimer leaves,
Having set a clear example for other authorities:
The era is changing, and this is becoming clearer;
It's truly a good idea to take turns with her!
