“There is such a phenomenon - sclerosis. When a person does not control himself, he cannot concentrate. Here we see this phenomenon. With all my disrespect for this minister - and I had the misfortune of meeting him, I saw him at a reception in honor of Independence Day when we still had more or less normal relations. He behaved like a lord and patted me on the shoulder. Such a big brother.
He is an absolutely Western, American product, his daughter does not know Russian. He spent his entire life in the West. This is an absolutely cynical person. It is clear that he is Putin’s right hand, he does everything that needs to be done. And he will immediately leave with Churkin as soon as Putin’s regime falls.
But this is a big mistake, especially given the power of Saudi Arabia, which has now assembled a large Arab coalition against ISIS. This is the country that ultimately determines the price of oil. And you need to know the Arab mentality. It's horrible. He also cursed there and said a bad word about his interlocutor.
I think this is just a loss of control and he needs to leave because he has already surpassed all the records of Gromyko, who was more concentrated and adequate,” Shcherbak said on Channel 5.
