Kapitan, Adnak, is always ready, yes, Adnak :)
If we’re being serious – the interest in Kyiv was greater because the finalists were interested in a new location (which they almost didn’t consider properly, but each of them probably modestly said later: “I was in Kyiv…”).
I worked in a large international company – every year there were meetings of directors – always in a new city-country. It was great. I suggest immediately thinking about the final in a place where each of the finalists would like to go. St. Petersburg or Moscow.
Regarding the organization… and the organizers. For example, I know that some people are unhappy with me… and so what? :) I don’t care about such people who are off their rockers. Do your job and don’t ruin your nerves – this applies to Sticky or anyone else from Moscow. Nothing, I think the Muscovites will mature…
