Bab 419: A Slow Day - 03

"By the way, why are you here?" Daniel asked. "I heard you said you came for a diplomatic trip. Are you going to be an ally to the US government or something?"

"Yes, they don't count," Anastasia nodded.

Hearing this from Anastasia made Daniel more confused. Then it dawned on him that although Russia is a monarchy state now, most day-to-day affairs and country development decisions are in the hands of the cabinet.
