Review Category:History of Portugal: lots to remove there Template:Regions of Portugal: statistical (NUTS3) subregions and intercommunal entities are confused; they are not the same in all regions, and should be sublisted separately in each region: intermunicipal entities are sometimes larger and split by subregions (e.g. the Metropolitan Area of Lisbon has two subregions), some intercommunal entities are containing only parts of subregions. All subregions should be listed explicitly and not assume they are only intermunicipal entities (which accessorily are not statistic subdivisions but real administrative entities, so they should be listed below, probably using a smaller font: we can safely eliminate the subgrouping by type of intermunicipal entity from this box).

I removed NPOV text vociferously decrying the accusations of corruption by appealing to Gerasimov's being instrumental in promoting peace. Being an active pacifist is no proof against corruption; moreover the only claim is that he stands accused of corruption and money laundering, not that he is in fact corrupt. Please remember that this is an encyclopedia and not a conversation. --Il hamster (talk) 20:17, 6 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the corruption claims. This is a biography of a living person, contentious material must not be included without good referencing. Hut 8.5 19:50, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

And how could one possible be the Soviet Ambassador to Portugal from 1990 until 1995??? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.121.102.84 (talk) 22:43, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I've changed it to "Russian" - not strictly accurate but that's how all the sources describe him. Hut 8.5 23:12, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Would an interview with transcript with Gennady Gerasimov from 1987 be useful here as an external link? Focus of conversation is nuclear weapons policy. http://openvault.wgbh.org/catalog/V_4510160E5676434AA58549C84B38EC2A (I have a conflict of interest; otherwise I would add it myself.)
