The network blew up with a flow of comments, and in shops smart entrepreneurs began to sell the calendar cards, badges and covers for mobile phones made in the form of "Yarosh's business card" which in the fire doesn't burn, in the water doesn't sink.
No. 2. Yarosh – the president
"The right sector" at the beginning of a year was the main horror story for the Russian citizens. It is not surprising that in May he won presidential elections.
