We can even include a certain proximity with heads of state of countries, say, lack the same democratic standards as us but it is for leaders to find the limit between what is industrial relations more or less friendly, which could raise conflict of interest or simply bad taste. The private holiday offered by the Heads of State undemocratic and poor countries are largely beyond the limit! The editorial policy
