De luxe van de G20

De achtste top van de G20 na de escalatie van de kredietcrisis wordt gehouden in het volkomen afgesloten Constatine Paleis, twintig kilometer buiten St.-Petersburg. Alle deelnemers worden per speedboot hiernaartoe gebracht. Betogers die luidkeels hun bezwaren willen uiten tegen bijvoorbeeld de oorlog in Syrië of de beperking van de homorechten in Rusland, zullen niet in de buurt van het paleis kunnen komen. Maar liefst 50 ton aan voedsel en drank is er alleen al voor de aanwezige journalisten opgeslagen.
