Zakharov managed to talk to a lieutenant colonel of the FSB Sergei Stepanov, who said that the event is held in a criminal case. What it is, and that, in fact, trying to find the secret services in the Gallery, he refused to answer. "I'm worried, in the office a lot of works of art. I have found valuable paintings - Rubens, Picasso, painting Serebryakova luxury and modern paintings - Zakharov wrote in his blog. - I very much hope that it will not die. But while I only saw them in an old mansion, where all the wood, sawed safe, from which the sparks and the smoke went. With that, I told them, where are the keys. " The works were left intact.
