The press secretary of the Russian President Vladimir Putin told about the titanic work of the Russian leader, whom he had to cope with the CSTOs, EURSEC and the Customs Union that launched on Wednesday, as well as a large press conference scheduled for Thursday, and the Friday Summit of Russia-European Union. Especially a lot of effort goes to prepare for communication with the people, more precisely, this time with the press. And although the president’s health is in perfect order, his spokeswoman still would not want him to have records again for the duration of the event.
“I hope not,” Dmitry Peskov answered the question of “news” about whether Putin will go to the record in communicating with media representatives.
A dense schedule this week does not allow Putin to relax either intellectually or physically. “In addition to the fact that he needs to prepare for the summits that will be the day before, he masters a huge amount of information in all areas of life, economics, and social sphere - humanitarian, cultural, economic. He refreshes all the information, all the numbers whose myriad has in his head,” Peskov said, metaphorically adding that this is “such a paper of papers that you just need to read it physically.”
The president does not have time to rest, he has no time to sleep - only "several hours a day", RIA Novosti quotes Peskov.
Regarding preparations for a big meeting with journalists, Peskov said that they predict questions that can be asked. According to him, on TV, the Internet and the Internet are always exaggerated "a dozen of the main blocks of topics." For example, Peskov is sure that the question of the fight against corruption will be heard. Based on the agenda, reference materials will be prepared, although during the press conference they will not be used, ITAR-TASS reports. Using them is already work, the spokesman believes.
And again about health
The constant energy that Putin requires preparation for events does not doubt that the president has no health problems, and once again insists Peskov. “This is what we talked about for a long time, but we did not believe us,” the spokesman noted.
Recall that rumors about Putin's unhealthy have been going on since he noticed a lameness during the APEC summit in Vladivostok. The media decided that the old spinal injury, which was aggravated after Putin’s flight with the Siberias , was allowed to know. Since then, Peskov had to refute various guesses, including the need to conduct surgery Putin and that in connection with the disease, he appears less often in the Kremlin and plans to send the Prime Minister in Brussels in Brussels in the Kremlin.
US Secretary of State "does not understand anything at all"
As part of the upcoming summites, Peskov also considered it necessary to comment on the statement of US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, which she made at a meeting of the Council of Foreign Affairs of the OSCE countries in Dublin . Then Clinton expressed fears that the Customs Union and the Eurasian Union is nothing more than an attempt to reunite the USSR in a new form.
“To associate the natural processes that ripen in the space of the former Soviet Union, with attempts to“ Sovietization ”, means not to understand anything in this space at all,” Peskov rejected. “This means not understanding the irreversibility of processes, not understanding the irreversibility of history, and not understand the appropriateness for each of the countries of the former Soviet Union to go to new forms of association on new principles.” Clinton’s statement can cause only a smile or regret, quotes the words of the Interfax press secretary.
