We in any case can not consider 4 108 thousand organizations that receive foreign support, foreign agents. A little of that, We are confident That a significant portion of this money is really going on socially useful projects, both Russian and international. But it is naive to believe That we only have 52 foreign agent and That the joint " Western partners ", on the one hand, impose against us in different economic penalties, and return - free money help our socially oriented NGOs, " said Alexander Brechalov. In the example, the head of the OP cited the "social work" USA in Ukraine." Ukraine In the last 20 years in each municipality worked NCOs.
