The impression arose that B-G is testing Russia by providing it with ministers, bad ministers and current ones.
But, always the most favorite in the people were ministers on "Four".
An anecdote about the Minister of Culture of the USSR, which has not lost its relevance so far:

Art exhibition in Paris. Picasso forgot his invitation ticket. He is not allowed:
Prove that you are Picasso.
He took a pencil and depicted the pigeon of the world, and he was missed. Furceva also forgot the invitation, and it is not allowed.
Minister of Culture of the USSR.
How can you prove this? Picasso also forgot his ticket.
He had to paint.
Who is Picasso?
Mr. Minister of Culture, you can go.
