A well-known national specialist, Sergei Silkin, admitted that he did not understand why South Americans should get Russian passports.
– Well, what’s the point if we don’t participate in any qualifying competition? I don’t understand why this is done. You have to ask them. I can only guess. But this situation seems strange to me, – said Silkin, whose words are quoted by Euro-Futbol.Ru.
