The parade was the reason ...
But the discussion and concern is quite different, a possible cause.

Mikhalkov went after him with a shot flashers

Today the same source in the Defense Ministry confirmed to Interfax that Nikita Mikhalkov leave the post of chairman of the Public Council. If we believe him, it turns out that the director first decided to deprive the flashers, and only after that he lashed out at Defense, and announced his departure from the Public Council.

"It was decided to withdraw from the machine spetssignal Mikhalkov, who was given his military office, and afterwards received a letter from the director to withdraw from the council, said the source. "The result was a mutually acceptable solution, and is now being consulted on future candidate for Chairman of the Board Defense," - said the unnamed officer.

"First, Defense Minister Anatoly Serdyukov has deprived the chairman of the Public Council his department's flashing light, as the ministry cut the quota for spetssignalami - told the representative of the Ministry of Defense. - Mikhalkov in the new quota, it was decided not to include." Director, learned about it, ostensibly delivered an ultimatum: either he leaves flashers, or it comes out of the Council. After that, according to a source in the ministry decided to break off relations with Mikhalkov.

Mikhalkov himself denied reports that his letter of resignation from the Public Council was written after he had picked flashers. "My letter to Defense Minister Anatoly Serdyukov, was written by another on May 16," - he stressed. He assured that he decided to withdraw from the council and no one chased.

What did Mikhalkov as chairman of the Public Council of the Russian Defense Ministry, nobody cares, but the denial of his emergency lights - yes. It's funny.
