On July 24, 1959, at the exhibition in Sokolniki, during a heated argument, Nikita Khrushchev angrily blurted out to Richard Nixon: • Мы ещё покажем вам кузькину мать! SLT: We will yet show you Kuzka's mother! 🔻MFA interpreter Yuri Lepanov was not prepared for such an outburst and dutifully translated it into English as: "We will show you Kuzma's mother," which greatly puzzled the journalists. ▶️Я покажу вам кузькину мать! #history #USSR #brief_and_interesting 😎RCR | Support | Boost
