Update: Gerard Depardieu- a spokesman for the Kremlin

On 8/1/2013 I wrote an entry about him, titled "France vs Russia: the case of Gerard Depardieu". If you haven't read it, you can find it in the archive on the right side. 

Contrary to my thought, it didn't end there. 
He has just made some new statements.

This time I refrain making any comment and leave the discussion for my readers.
