As it was nearing the end of the afternoon work hours, Baskov finally returned to his office.
Working in the Russian Federal Security Service is always busy, and recently, Russia has been facing too many problems, both internal and external, keeping Baskov, a senior executive at the Federal Security Service, constantly on his toes.
Having just finished a very important meeting, Baskov felt both physically and mentally exhausted, but he was far from his rest time, with many more matters to attend to.
An assistant brought in a cup of coffee and placed it on Baskov's desk, whispering, "Your coffee."
Baskov nodded and said in a deep voice, "Bring me today's report."
The assistant brought over a stack of documents, placing a newspaper atop the thick pile of files. After doing all this, he quietly left the office of the Minister of the Border Security Guard Department.
