Putin named the names of the new ministers . Has a legitimate coup taken place ? - "GlobalRus", 2004, March 9.
“Until now, the post of head of the government apparatus was extremely important, but insignificant in the power hierarchy. Now it has been taken by Kozak , one of the key figures of the Russian government. If he retains the post of deputy head of the presidential apparatus, this will mean an almost literal merger of the presidential apparatus and the government. That is, in essence, a step towards complete control of the presidential administration over the government. If this is so, then we are really dealing with a “legitimate revolution”, namely, without changing the Constitution in Russia, the government as an independent body is abolished. This is generally reasonable."

“The world community is entering a new stage of worsening economic and - especially - environmental contradictions. (...) Here the time factor and the objective need for a series of preventive large-scale military or special operations using weapons of mass destruction (WMD) come to the fore. A new strategic feature - this is the need to wage “genocidal wars”, aimed at the destruction not of military forces and weapons and military equipment, but of the surplus population of a potential enemy (...) The very politics of life and biological evolution require something different - “pure” WMD, which was understood most quickly in the United States. Unfortunately, this is difficult to comprehend in the Russian Ministry of Defense and its special services (GRU, SVR, FSB). (...) Taking into account new military and special (secret) tasks, the US Department of Defense and intelligence services are moving to implement the concept of “artificial” in practice. human selection." The advances achieved in the United States in recent years in the study of gene structure (DNA), genetic code, mechanisms of heredity and programmable genetic defects in general terms make it possible to put into practice the concept of a "genetic bomb"..."

Kirill Privalov . Tragedy, Skyguide style . - “Results”, 2004, # 10, March 9.
“I’m not at all trying to push the Swiss investigators towards the version that someone else was actually behind Vitaly Kaloev. But a lot of things seem too strange to me in this story with an absent-minded dispatcher and a hot Caucasian guy. (...) No, something is wrong here! Moreover, I don’t like the fact that in this combination of circumstances, the company Skyguide appears to be the main victim in the eyes of Western public opinion, having found itself in the role of a victim of an unbridled savage maniac from “this unpredictable Russia”...

Otar Ioseliani . "Are people worthy of compassion?" The conversation was conducted by Yuri Kovalenko. - "Russian Courier", 2004, # 45, March 4.
“For a long time, even under Nicholas I, the Georgians caused great concern among the tsarist administration with their inability to trade. They tried to instill in the population skills that were not typical for them. The Georgians were warriors, tillers, revelers, artisans, but were never traders. Today one gets the impression that they became merchants, but this occupation, just like in Russia, has taken on ugly forms. This means that this is not typical for us. And perhaps a moment will come when in my homeland, as in former times, it will become shameful to be a merchant.”
“We must continue to build the state, but the open wound left by the ugly seizure of Abkhazia by Russian soldiers continues to bleed.”
"Georgians have never been particularly religious."
