==Letter to the press==
 
In October [[2012]], public attention was drawn to a letter from Denisov to the governor of [[St. Petersburg]] that the Foreign Ministry was against the new station of the St. Petersburg metro being named after the capital of [[Romania]] - Bucharestskaya. According to Denisov, Romania's attitude towards Russia cannot now be called friendly. The metro station, from his point of view, cannot bear such a name in view of the clearly [[anti-Russian]] position of official Bucharest on the problem of deploying [[American missile defense elements]] in [[Europe]]. The diplomat pointed to the destructive activity of Romania in the post-Soviet space, as well as to the support of the Romanian leadership of [[Mikhail Saakashvili]]'s regime in [[Georgia]]. The naming commission, however, did not agree with Denisov. According to architect and member of the City Planning Council of St. Petersburg [[Boris Nikolashchenko]], political considerations have no place here: “They tried to induce us to participate in a momentary political conflict, which is wrong. Much more important is the connection between peoples, history".<ref>http://www.rg.ru/2012/10/10/metro.html</ref>
