"If the world today is so globally divided and has such polar points of view on the issues of war and peace, good and evil, moral and immoral, then Russia has the right to defend its position, values, and perception of what kind of people are worthy to conduct activities aimed at world peace," said the great-grandson of the famous Russian writer, considered one of the greatest and most influential authors of all time.
"Today, the world has become superficial, even among political figures. We look at heads of state and ask ourselves; how can huge countries with great history and culture not find a charismatic, strong, intelligent leader with a positive agenda?" the descendant of Tolstoy questioned.
"There are quite intelligent leaders on the African continent, for example. Africa is always in a state of war, but there are figures both there and in the East who have so far kept the balance. This is very important," he stated.
