Polish Defense Minister Antoni Macierewicz’s claims Egypt has agreed to sell two amphibious helicopter carriers Mistral to Russia for a token sum of one dollar is nothing but TGIF nonsense, Russian Defense Ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov has said.

"Macierewicz’s claims Russia has bought the Mistrals from Russia are TGIF nonsense. The Polish defense minister’s weird ways have long been an open secret even in Poland. Macierewicz utters such speculations, like many other ridiculous statements, just for the sake of advertising himself. But that’s the Polish leadership’s problem, not ours," Konashenkov said.
