"viper" — 18 times, "white pony" — 1 time, "Murzilka" (a classic Russian children's magazine character) — 48 times, "teach a bear to smoke" — 1 time.

From participating in regional elections, to "Stop Feeding the Caucasus" (a Russian nationalist slogan). From Lee Kuan Yew, to Valentina Poneyad and Izolda Menshova. And when you finish reading and say, "Whew, that really was a huge interview," you'll realize with horror that that was only part one. The interview was so long that even RBC split it in two. Here's the second part. I'm sure the RBC illustrator portrayed me this way because he was half out of his mind by the time he finished reading the whole thing:
