"..., you complicate our lives. Lama Shri is a great friend of ours but the way I have to avoid being political in certain situations in my function as a lama also Lama Shri cannot go to places where major trouble would erupt from statements already made by him. As people are very fanatic about the Dalai Lama and Russian Gelugpas are very well informed he might be in real danger in Russia from his court cases against the Dalai Lama. Do give him all our best regards but for the sake of his own welfare with the KGB everywhere we do not think that he should go to Russia now."
