Putin's performance at the board of the Prosecutor General: you need to deal with corruption and cold

Vladimir Putin spoke at the board of the Prosecutor General. The content of the speech is set out by Interfax. One of the most important areas of the prosecutor's office is the fight against corruption. At the same time, there should not be interference in the economy.

Recall, according to the Interma Foundation, in 2002 the amount of bribes paid amounted to 40 billion dollars. Mikhail Khodorkovsky caused the president’s displeasure, naming the amount of $ 30 billion.

Putin also reported some crime statistics. About 3 million, replacements were registered, while teenagers took part in every 10th. At the same time, two -thirds of the crimes remained unsolved.

Another thesis of Putin is that the prosecutor's office should coordinate the work of the investigating authorities, its work should be premature. The supervision of the prosecutor's office for the investigation and inquiry is "this is the most important element of external control over the activities of law enforcement agencies."

The prosecutor’s office should be engaged not only in loud crimes: “You can’t be silent when, due to the negligence of officials, multi-storey buildings are left without water and light for weeks, people are freezing in their apartments. Such facts are very close, they are in full view, but the proper supervision of the actions of officials is still rarely carried out.”

The latest statements may indicate the demand for the prosecutor's office to expand their presence in various fields of activity, including control over government officials. Of course, the control functions are spelled out by law, but in this case we are talking about real practice.
