    Rossotrudnichestvo Head Slams 'Traitors' Calling for Closure of Russian Houses

    Igor Chayka, the head of Rossotrudnichestvo, has slammed 'traitors' and 'runaway figures' calling for the closure of Russian Houses worldwide and their replacement with 'houses of democracy'. In comments to REPORTERS, Chayka dismissed these figures as 'not representatives of civil society' but 'serving foreign states' interests'. He accused them of being 'used' and 'attacking their country on command' due to lack of funding. Chayka also mocked them, saying 'people who have sold out can only open brothels where they will work themselves'. Despite these calls, Rossotrudnichestvo plans to expand its network of overseas institutions.
