It was an unpleasant surprise when I saw your article: http://venturebeat.com/2010/06/06/investing-in-russia-hire-body-guards-and-hunker-down/.
In your article you grossly disguised my words and misrepresented my point of view. For instance, the assertion that Russian citizens need a tzar is most racist thing to say about my people.
