[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Elizabeth Pavlova ? "It's important for Russia and China to cultivate a community that respects and understands the cultures of both countries " Pavlova said.
 Pavlova was satisfied with the bulletin boards on which students wrote their feelings about learning Chinese. Chinese motifs such as bamboos were drawn beside texts.
 The students not only learned the Chinese language  but also Chinese politics  economics and cultures as well  Pavlova said.
 The upcoming Year of Chinese Language in Russia would extend the fruits of the reciprocal national theme years (last year was Year of the Russian Language in China)  and would strengthen cultural and educational cooperation between the two countries and thus create favorable circumstances for Russia's young people to learn Chinese language and culture  Pavlova said.
 "Both the teachers and students are eager to take part in the colorful events to be held within the framework of the Year of Chinese Language " she said.
 The school planned to launch a festival of Chinese language and culture in April as part of its contribution to the language year  Pavlova said. Students from 15 schools in Moscow would be invited to the occasion.
 The students were vigorously preparing for the Chinese language contest for elementary and high school students in Moscow as well as the all-Russian Chinese writing contest  while the teachers were scheduled to attend a seminar on Chinese language teaching at Moscow State University  she said.
 Pavlova said she was looking forward to taking her students to various activities  including exhibitions on Chinese language  universities  movies and literature  and a performance of the Beijing People's Art Theater  a famed Chinese drama troupe.
 Pavlova hoped the Year of Chinese Language increased cooperation between schools from both countries  stressing her school and other Russian schools running Chinese courses were keen to establish rapport with Chinese schools  especially those featuring Russian language teaching.

[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Robert Mueller ? A 'Toothless' Old Law Could Have New Fangs  Thanks To Robert Mueller
But  Justice Department special counsel Robert Mueller  isn't laughing — and neither may potential violators if  he  decides to make it  his  new weapon of choice.
Then  in October  Mueller's office changed that when it indicted former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort and  his  longtime business associate Rick Gates — instantly becoming the highest-profile FARA prosecution ever.
Those charges have raised the question about whether  Mueller  has more up  his  sleeve for other people swept up in the Russia probe who could be connected with lobbying and influence work for foreign governments and entities.
 Mueller 's next steps
With Manafort and Gates charged  one next potential FARA target for  Mueller  is former national security adviser Michael Flynn. Flynn belatedly filed a FARA registration in March for work his consulting firm did on behalf of the Turkish government. That in itself isn't necessarily a problem — the Justice Department makes it a policy to accept late filings rather than punish the practice  as a means to encourage filing at all.
