today. We’ve got to prepare the humanitarian thing for Friday. We’re up to our ears in important
jobs.

Еvgeny Kopot: The boss held a long meeting about CAR today. And now the boss is phoning
me twice a day. Yesterday he chewed my balls off because the information about the Gabonian
was released, and today he praised me. Yesterday I almost started building a wood processing
factory :))) like he guessed my thoughts.

[Dmitry Syty]: That’s an old idea of the boss’s. We talked about it back in Sochi.

management and the negotiations

Valery Kondakov writes to Evgeny Kopot

Valery Kondakov: I’m seeing the boss in 40 minutes… got the MFA scan, but not the Roscon

boss has allocated the tasks as follows:

Andrey (factory), Andrey (ours) says there are 42 Muslims in the FACA graduation class. Can
we make one of the graduates a hero. A moving interview (basic questions from me) about how
a Muslim is concerned about the future of CAR? In any event we need to support the narrative
about increasing the number of Muslims in FACA. This is the boss’s task.

Valery Kondakov: Clearly the boss set some tasks yesterday…political ones

Еvgeny Kopot: Yes, the boss gave everyone a bollocking yesterday. Political tasks…

Valery Kondakov: Yeah. If it’s political, then it’s for you alone. The boss has allocated this to
you, let me quote: "Kopot has done just one thing, but he’s done it well: he’s organised an
excellent election to the bureau".

damned if I’m going where…

October 05, 2018

Petr Bychkov in the FAT Presentation group

Petr Bychkov: We need to produce a nice convincing presentation so that the boss can tell
Touadera he needs to throw out the French and listen to us only. For that, we need to show how
