Merci pour ce rappel. Le gouverneur a bien dit que l’image de la croix fait partie du blason de la Russie, ça me fait penser à la vieille croix sur le clocher de notre église à Tver que je vois chaque fois que je vais au marché. Bonne fête à tous.

The governor's point about the cross on our national coat of arms is spot on. That same simple cross shape is on the old wooden one above the market square church here in Tver, the one I pass every Saturday when I buy tomatoes from the same old lady. Nice reminder.
