She says also: « More than 40% of small businesses in Russia today are run by women … The numbers of women in management positions in business are growing, while numbers of men are stagnating.

And she says: « We have a few women celebrities, who dominate TV talks shows, but there is still no real women’smovement in Russia. That must grow from below, not be imposed from above ». (See on UStoday).
