Russia has begun accepting questions for “Direct Line with Vladimir Putin,” which is scheduled for Thursday, April 24, and among them there are questions regarding criminal cases against oppositionist Alexei Navalny and the “prisoners of Bolotnaya,” zero ppm and the Unified State Exam.

“Does your administration have anything to do with the criminal cases against Navalny?” ask visitors to the website moskva-putinu.ru (you can also ask questions on the website moskva-putinu.rf or by calling the unified call center). The most frequently asked questions about Navalny are published on the website in the “Justice” section. Among them are such as: “Are the criminal cases against lawyer and public figure Alexei Navalny an attempt to prevent him from actively participating in the political life of the country” or “When will the shameful trial of the murdered Magnitsky and Navalny end?”

Another question about Navalny appeared in the “Labor and Employment” section. Its author asks President Putin why not think about the issue of employing opposition leaders (Navalny and others)? Then there would be “at least some benefit from them, and in practice people would see what they are worth!”

Among the frequently asked questions were, for example, such as: “Why are young, decent citizens of Russia - prisoners of Bolotnaya, members of the group Pussy Riot - imprisoned?” or “Why weren’t Serdyukov and Vasilyeva arrested?”

Businessmen ask Putin: “When will entrepreneurs live well in Rus'?” Why are they being pressured by taxes and pension payments, and what can small entrepreneurs expect from the state in the near future?

As always, there are many questions related to education (“When will the mockery of education end?”), including new school curricula and textbooks, the prospects for the abolition of the Unified State Examination and the State Examination, and the resignation of the Minister of Education Livanov.

Visitors to the site who left questions for Putin are also interested in where the billion dollars went for Russian non-profit organizations? When will there be real child benefits in Russia (“Where does the amount of 150 rubles a month come from? What can you buy a child with it?”). And when will the acceptable ppm norm be returned (“It’s very scary to lose your license due to an inaccurate device or a corrupt traffic police inspector, and along with your license, lose your job”)?

The direct line with Vladimir Putin will take place on Thursday live on TV channels “First”, “Russia 1”, “Russia 24”, radio stations “Mayak”, “Vesti FM” and “Radio Rossii”. Not only guests invited to the program’s studio can ask the president a question, but also those citizens with whom the president will communicate during live broadcasts from Russian cities, who called or sent an SMS message to the unified call center, or left a question via the Internet.

During the “direct line” Putin will be asked about Navalny and Serdyukov
