Russia's Klintsevich resigns Defense Committee Post

A Russian lawmaker Frants Klintsevich has resigned as deputy head of the Russian Federation Council's Defense Committee.

Klintsevich did not elaborate on his reason for resigning as first deputy chairman of the Defense and Security Committee in the upper house of the Russian parliament, but told the Kommersant daily that "apparently, not everyone at the Federation Council liked my openness."

The Federation Council will consider whether to approve Klintsevich's resignation at a plenary session on February 14, RFE/RL reported.
