Moscow office of the Transnational Radical Party

Dear Anna Zaytseva and Nikolay Khramov,

Having received your letter containing the initiative of your party concerning the reform of election law, I have to respond that to my regret I do not support this initiative as in my opinion the mixed election system acting today in Russia most completely corresponds to the present realities.

Sincerely yours, /signature/ S.A.Popov
