It is understood that, with respect to such a person may occur jealous. On the other hand, such leakage and to help Sergei Alexandrovich to “monitor” the level of his popularity. ” As an example, the source cited Festival “Moscow jam”, which was held under the auspices of the summer capital of the Department of Trade and Services and of which the head of the cultural department expressed quite ironic – and then a few months do not make comments on the press.
