Parfenov denied the claims, saying:<blockquote>That was normal. Literally, I said: "a type of whitish northern appearance which is popularly called "chukhon blond " ({{~~lang-~~langx\|ru\|чухонь белобрысая\|chukhon belobrysaya}}). How else? They don't say "blond of medium height". My cousin, Sasha, looks just like that. And Baba Katya, the kingdom of heaven to her, always called him that. This is very common in the North: [[Novgorod]], [[St. Petersburg]], [[Vologda]], [[Arkhangelsk region]], [[Karelia]] ... By the way, we have discussed this with [[Svetlana Sorokina\|Sveta Sorokina]] who is from St. Petersburg. I am also partly from St. Petersburg, because I studied in St. Petersburg. And we said this is ours, and many do not know that "chukhon" is northern Russia. As a matter of fact, I am also a chukhon by birth.
