No, I'm not a Russian mobster. I´m a Swedish journalist.

I interviewed a Russian woman in Latvia a few years ago. She thought that I looked more like a Russian mobster than a Swedish journalist. I learned the phrase: "Нет, я не русский гангстер. Я шведский журналист" which means "No, I'm not a Russian mobster. I´m a Swedish journalist" to prevent future misunderstandings.
