State Duma deputy Oleg Nilov decided to make a joke during the charity Wish Tree on December 14. Having torn off a postcard with another request to Santa Claus, he pretended that there was a wish from the “boy Vova from Kyiv” to receive rockets, and promised to fulfill it.
A video with the sharpness of the parliamentarian appeared on the network on December 14. It shows that another State Duma deputy Artem Metelev did not appreciate his colleague’s humor.
