The businessman plans to abolish the federal districts, and the number of regions of the "real" Federation is reduced to 25-30 by decision of the referendum.
Only in the program of the Republic of the North Caucasus were noted apart, which, on the one hand, was promised exemption from taxes until 2020, and on the other, for the same period, the legislatively fixed special status, which provides for their lower independence in the appointment of heads of law enforcement agencies and judges. In other regions, Mikhail Prokhorov proposes to introduce the election of heads of territorial internal affairs departments and the election of chairmen of the courts with the general vote of judges. The presidential candidate believes that all federal judges should be appointed by the Federation Council, and the President’s powers on the proposal of candidates for members of the constitutional, supreme and senior arbitration courts, as well as the chairmen of federal courts, must be canceled.
On January 18, Prokhorov said that in the event of a victory in the elections, the post of Prime Minister ex-head of the Ministry of Finance Alexei Kudrin or the former head of Yukos Mikhail Khodorkovsky could offer the post of Prime Minister. "I have a candidate for the post of prime minister. I even have a few of them. I can voice one now - Alexey Kudrin," Prokhorov said. At the same time, he admitted that this issue did not discuss this issue with Kudrin himself.
"Khodorkovsky would have been undoubtedly found. Including Khodorkovsky could be the Prime Minister," the businessman said. Also, according to Prokhorov, Oksana Dmitrieva, who is a deputy of the State Duma from Fair Russia, would also be found in his government. In the late 90s for several months, she was the Minister of Labor and Social Development, and in the Duma works in the Committee on Budgets and Taxes.
Prokhorov added that a place in his government would also be found for the former first deputy head of the Kremlin administration, and now Deputy Prime Minister Vladislav Surkov. "I would have entrusted to Vladislav Yuryevich the problems of the Caucasus. I wish his talent could completely turn around," he said.
On January 16, Prokhorov said that power and system opposition play in two hands, trying to "saddle public discontent and convert it into their bonuses." “In recent days, I carefully watched how three of our“ Duma elders ” - I mean Zyuganov -Mironov -Zhirinovsky - are trying to join the protest movement. Today, these“ oppositionists ”have decided to set the public discontent repeatedly. The authorities took up the usual business: they try to lead something that they could not interfere. To be honest, it was just ridiculous” - it was just ridiculous. Prokhorov.
“What happened on Bolotnaya and Sakharov will now try to turn into goods to resell the authorities. Such a business from the gentlemen Zyuganov -Mironov -Zhirinovsky. For this, you can criticize the power, and to participate and promise Khodorkovsky,” writes Prokhorov.
On January 12, Prokhorov published an article in the British Gurdian, in which he stated, in particular, that the mass rallies held in Russia in December marked the end of the "era of controlled democracy." The country needs changes, but it is necessary to go to them with an evolutionary, not a revolutionary way. According to Prokhorov, over the past six months, the Russians have become "a little unrecognizable for themselves." “As Russians, we always loved to sit in the kitchen, criticize something and philosophize. But now we see a real awakening when we all feel that we are obliged to participate in the development of the country,” the presidential candidate writes.
"People on the streets require honest and fair elections. Communication in social networks is seething. An unexpectedly established political system was in question, and the authorities are forced to start a dialogue with the people," Prokhorov said.
According to Prokhorov, only now a generation has appeared, "ready to carry out genuine reforms and understanding why democracy and liberalism are values that belong to us all."
On January 6, Prokhorov said that the legitimacy of power is declining, and if nothing is changed, then the design will collapse itself. “This system will no longer withstand five more years. This means that there is a large field for new political thought, for new persons and new ideas. Which should appear outside the party in power - through the creation of new parties, movements, independent centers of political and economic expertise,” Prokhorov wrote on his blog.
“The“ United Russia ”will not preserve the monopoly in parliament, I did not doubt it. The simple majority, and not constitutional, is already good for polarizing opinions. But it could have been better. If the“ right business ”in version 13.09 (before the congress at which Prokhorov was shifted from the post of party leader. - Ed.) Remained Prokhorov.
On December 29, Prokhorov announced that he would go to the presidential election under the slogan “If not me, then who?”, Having abandoned the previous “power in truth”. Prokhorov representatives said earlier that the entrepreneur would personally lead the pre -election campaign.
On December 15, Prokhorov promised in the event of an election to the presidency to have mercy on the ex-head of Yukos Mikhail Khodorkovsky. "The first decision I will make a humanistic - I will have mercy on Khodorkovsky," Prokhorov said. Earlier, Prokhorov called the situation around the parole of Khodorkovsky and his colleague Platon Lebedev "ugliness". "I specifically studied the procedure together with lawyers, and I believe that there are no grounds for non -association of parole Khodorkovsky and Lebedev," Prokhorov said.
At the meeting of the initiative group to nominate Prokhorov to the presidency, the businessman promised to carry out the reform of the political system: to reduce the presidential term of up to 5 years, to introduce the notification procedure for registration of parties and return the election of governors.
