Putin is not interesting to the West
The foreign policy program of the future President Putin did not excite the Western public at all. It is now more interesting to her domestic policy: rallies, corruption, falsification. And Putin can not answer her and only repeats previously voiced unprecedented formulas.
On the eve of the election, presidential candidate Vladimir Putin considered it necessary to talk not only with his own voter or his proxies, but also to contact a foreign public. For what purpose the candidate met with editors of "leading foreign media."
The logic is simple - the editors of any, only from countries from the G7, newspapers were collected to Putin. No ideology: Japan was represented by a centrist, but with a slightly left bias of Asahi Shimbun, Italy - left La Republicca, Great Britain - conservative The Times. Even "leading" the media cannot be unequivocally called. The Times is the second in circulation in the country among “high -quality publications”, like the Asahi Shimbun, La Repubblica is trying to dispute the status of the main newspaper in Corriere Della Sera, but they have approximate parity and a different reader. The United States was not presented at all at all. In general: whoever arrived is well done.
The meeting was working, that is, he said as a prime minister. The transcript is published on the Prime Minister’s website, while the transcript of the meeting, say, with proxies, which took place the day before, was published on the website of Putin's Candidate. It is clear that the division into Putin's Candidate and Premier Putin is artificially, but in this case it is noteworthy. Who do foreign editors go to? They do not go to the candidate, but to the future president. And he communicates as the future president - he explains what he will do after the election at his post. It can be taken so that Putin has already mentally won the first round.
The current prime minister got the opportunity to turn to the western establishment and clarify something. He wanted to tell what he immediately warned the editors, about his article on foreign policy. The editor was immediately disappointed: “Of course, it would be very pleasant for me to talk about international relations, but since the election campaign is ending now, perhaps, I would like to start with these factors.” And the first question Putin was asked about the capital's protests.
“They are residents of the cities -“ Polit.ru ”) do not mind, there are the number of those who support me, less than others. This is true. But still, their majority, my supporters, even in large cities. And one must be objective, we must watch what is, and not what you want to see, ”Putin shared his picture of the world.
Then he was asked to explain why he shifted Medvedev from his post, then - whether he would appoint Medvedev as the prime minister, then that Medvedev did “wrong”. All these questions have already followed repeatedly repeated, almost memorized answers. “Medvedev and I decided”, “I will appoint Medvedev as prime minister,” “Medvedev proposed a program, and the government should engage in its implementation, so let it go” and so on. Or for example, Putin for the second time for the week called Nikita Belykh “representative of the“ right -handed ”, although the current Kirov governor was the head of the ATP and had no concern to the“ right business ”. A twice repeated error cannot be an accident, it is already something hidden into the premier brain.
Purely for the sake of restoring historical justice, we correct the prime minister in another Lyap: in any “irreconcilable opposition” “the right business” did not “migrate”. Moreover: a half -dead party in this election supports Putin, and former co -chairs of PD are an adviser to the head of the Rusnano State Corporation Leonid Gozman, journalist George Bovt (during the autumn schism in the “right business”, the businessman Boris Titov, who is now the authorized person of Putin himself, supported the pro -Kremlin opponents. However, the tricks with a texture are normal, for that Putin and a politician, to speak half -truth, keep silent about problems and scream about successes.
The prime minister, it turns out, heard this name. “The person whom you called worked as an adviser for one of the governors (the second time in one interview to mention the name of Nikita Belykh, and even in the negative for the career of the governor context, the prime minister, apparently, apparently seemed unnecessary-“ Polit.ru ”), and there were also some problems (I, however, did not know, not immersed, in my opinion, in my opinion, in my opinion, in my opinion, in my opinion. activity ",. - recalled the current prime minister of the message of Kirovoles.
The story is really opaque and dark, but the prime minister’s message is clear - not everything there is purely for this of your Navalny and we can do it at one time. It is interesting, by the way, that Putin did not name Navalny by his name. “The person you mentioned” is his favorite premiere turn when he wants to emphasize that this character is personally unpleasant for him. So Putin once called Berezovsky (everything began with the historical answer “And Boris Berezovsky - who is this?”), Khodorkovsky, non -systemic opposition.
In the second half of the interview, Putin still managed to talk about his last article, but the dialogue came out very boring and without a light. The editors have already received answers to their questions and discussed with the prime minister not the text of his “immortal article, but mainly relations with their countries. Yes, and the Russian prime minister, I admit, was not on top.
A little about Syria and Iran (there was a revival, the prime minister wrote about this in the article, finally the Westerners went to business!), But that’s all interesting and ended.
However, in a conversation about foreign policy, something important was found about the abilities of the prime minister. Such a playful dialogue happened:
“Question: Another question about Canada.
V.V. Putin: ... by hockey.
Replica: Exactly. You know how to read people's thoughts.
VV Putin: Yes, I can do it. It is more careful with me. "
Jokes jokes, and candidate telepath clearly has every chance to win the elections. He actually knows what exactly the citizens need.
