The criticism is aimed at a procedure that resembles the principle of "rush it through, and we'll see what happens later."

A figurative Russian expression ("davai, davai, potom posmotrim") is used to characterize hasty and ill-considered legislation. The address is a brief retort that appeals to logic, emphasizing the importance of the quality of the content over the label.
