Rostislav Vladimirovich Ishchenko. (№ 222109)

I don't understand why they would start a "reform of the RAS". Bureaucrat-businessman "reforming" the basic science is, it's something. Harder to compromise himself Medvedev's office could not. Doesn't matter if you think you are weak, the enemy of their own state, insecure, incompetent, ambitious, and corrupt. Scary if it becomes obvious that you're an idiot. After all, it was clear that "reform" will cause a strong resistance to scientists, and yet no government has won its own science. To destroy science and scientists could win - no.
