Bondarev said that Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov was a good example of the degradation of the government.

According to the New York Times, Bondarev said he should have resigned at the beginning of the Russian invasion, but he delayed the move to resolve family issues. In his letter, Bondarev said he had seen a rise in lies and unprofessionalism within the Foreign Ministry. A Department of Defense official told reporters last week that the size of Russian offensive operations may be decreasing.
