It turned out that Tolstoy proposed sending deputies from the United Russia faction Zhanna Ryabtseva and Natalya Orlova to Brazil to the International Women's Conference. And Kalashnikov proposed sending deputy Konstantin Zatulin to Mongolia.

“Have you thought well? Why fly to a place where you might be arrested? Do you want to shine on TV screens in the news blocks? Have you forgotten the story with Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Alexander Babakov, when US intelligence agencies wanted to arrest him in India? I had to involve the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. “They barely got us out,” MK’s source quoted the dissatisfied tirade of the State Duma speaker.
