5. Of course, because you have a different opinion she must have imagined it

Please do let us know your incredible credentials and do post your own observations of your recent trip to Russia. That would would not put you on equal footing with this credentialed delegation (come on, you can't realistically consider her background inconsequential. She is entirely qualified for diplomatic work and experienced with other cultures).

"She also served 16 years as a US diplomat in US Embassies in Nicaragua, Grenada, Somalia, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Sierra Leone, Micronesia, Afghanistan and Mongolia"

Why are you so set on putting this down? It is not in support of Putin but a report from Russians meant to bring us closer to understanding each other.

It boggles my mind why this particular post was so offensive to some.
