[quote]3 February 2015 - 1:42pm The head of the State Duma Committee on Defense, Vladimir Komoyedov, said today that if France does not deliver Mistral helicopter carriers soon, Russia is no longer required to wait for execution of the contract. "We must demand the immediate return of the funds spent on the execution of this contract, together with penalties," Komoyedov said, stressing that Russia does not need "these clumsy ship docks" and the contract with France had more political than military significance, Interfax reported. Vladimir Jabbarov narrated an interesting episode: "A year ago I had a meeting at the 'Parlamentskaya' newspaper. There was a round-table discussion about the Maidan, which was only just beginning, and a Ukrainian journalist arises and saith: "So you call us brothers, but we have the Nikolaev shipyard doing nothing and you have ordered a 'Mistral' from France. I told him: "We booked the 'Mistral' in France because this country is a reliable partner, and with you we can't be sure if our money will be stolen or if our contracts will be fulfilled." These exact words I repeated to the French senator: Jean-Yves Leconte of the national Assembly of France was in Russia this summer.[/quote] Shit Russia. You poor as fuk
