It is, of course. But the point of the guy I was answering to was that there would never be any woman in the Russian government. The government is not only the government, and there are already women ministers in Russia, and "secretaries" (that's how you call ministers in the US, right?) in the US.
BTW. I've seen there's only 400 something civilian deaths? thats insane for 2 weeks of war, in U.S. war there are a lot more. I guess it's because they are fighting a brotherly nation with the same Orthodox religion, so civilian deaths are important for the popular Russian opinion.
