Actually, the idea is worn in the air. Like, in the international arena we do not produce anything other than global hemorrhoids, so let's hit humanity with some internal liberal reform. The ex-Vice-Prime Minister himself expressed this thought, in a truncated form. Without invading particularly into the field of big policy, with an emphasis on economic problems. The persistently unhappy prime minister, as if he were introducing troops into the Crimea and Donbass, Alexei Kudrin has repeatedly spoke about the "poor work" of the government and about the need for " structural reforms ."
This is him, one might say, the cherished idea.
The course for self -isolation, conducted by the current national leader, is trying to correct Aleksey Leonidovich with the help of some reform spells. It’s even good that so far we are bad, as if the retired Minister of Finance sings under the nose - and then offers a certain set of actions saving for the economy. So, in November last year, indicating in the programmatic article that sanctions are seriously and for a long time, Kudrin said that the time had come to rebuild. The troubles that fell on the country, he recommended "use for development." That is, to restore pension savings, freeze taxes, stop the harassment of business with officials, return political freedoms to citizens ... Well, reduce military spending, which Kudrin called for time from time immemorial. For which he paid the position.
All this, of course, made a strong impression. Who will reduce the army budget, I wanted to ask when the country declared war on the whole world? What are the political freedoms if there is such a Pyongyang from each legislative novel that even Kim Jong -un, offended by plagiators, refused to celebrate the anniversary of victory over the Nazis? In general, the combination of sobriety and manov region in the speeches of the most aware of our disagreements always caused a fragment.
Something similar, painfully familiar, sounded in his yesterday's performances - at the St. Petersburg forum , in an interview with an interfax correspondent and on the rain . Alexey Leonidovich spoke directly amazing things. He praised Nazarbayev, who was re -elected in April to get, imagine, "a new mandate of national trust for the successful passage of the country during the period of global trials." He advised Putin to go along the Kazakh path: to re -elect and "declare a new reform program." What the economist Yevgeny Gontmamer wrote about a little earlier, but in an unequal style, just trying to understand why the Kremlin decided to transfer elections to the Duma two months ago. In addition, as if reassuring the guarantor, Kudrin said that he would not go to the premieres and would still rule the country. Finally, he also said about the "full -scale crisis", shaking Russia, and "did not" do "once again the possibilities of his return to power. In addition to Putin will support reforms.
Porridge came out again in the bottom line. Well, true, why is Vladimir Vladimirovich to be elected ahead of time, when 88% of the grateful Russians for him already? And if the languishes from gratitude in a year or two are transmitted, then will it save his specified mandate of trust? And what, in general, except Putin himself, prevents Putin from performing all these miracles at least tomorrow? Start so -called reforms, suck the military budget and make citizens happy, scattering political rights from the balcony.
However, not everything is so simple, not in vain the idea is worn in the air, and the stubborn curls voiced it for years. Against the background of war, hybrid and cold. Against the background of sanctions that are dangerous to the economy, and counter -sanctions, directly destructive. But already against the backdrop of the arrests of Russian property abroad , murderous for the reputation of the state. The idea is worn in the air, and if you delve into it, it turns out that it seems to be a very good idea. We can say the last chance-if not for Russia, which still must somehow survive its president, then for himself.
The idea, I repeat, is what. On the Western Front without changes, and here until the end of the Putin’s deadlines you can’t change anything, but you can hit the enemy at the front of the domestic Russian. Take, for example, to appoint the same Alexei Leonidovich Prime Minister, somehow comforting Dmitry Anatolyevich, but offended Zorkin. You can continue to go along the same road, calling on the post of head of the presidential administration, for example, Khodorkovsky. And to invite Navalny, for example, to the post of director of the FSB. In other words, without changing anything in the external policy, such dust is put into the eyes of Western leaders that they will finally cease to understand what is happening in Russia.
On the one hand, Putin is in the Kremlin, and on the other, Kudrin in the White House. On the one hand, Russian statehood is strengthened in the Crimea, but not to give the peninsula, this is not a sandwich, but on the other hand, reforms and generally opposition at key posts. On the one hand, in the Donbass the complete confusion, and on the other, Putin, who surrounded himself with reformers and, roughly speaking, democrats, beat everyone again! In short, the thought is inspired by Alexei Leonidovich Vladimir Vladimirovich with his statements, draws such a political perspective, and whispers a dream. Assuming that the guarantor himself has already comprehended and measured the scale of the disaster into which he plunged the country.
Agree, this is a beautiful plan. But, alas, a pipe dream. And the main trouble here is not even that the conditional Navalny with Khodorkovsky will hardly agree to participate in the personnel revolution in the Kremlin. And the unconditional Kudrin is unlikely to agree, since Putin needs only as an old -regime specialist with the Bolsheviks, such as Chubais, and Alexei Leonidovich has already played this role and does not want to play anymore.
The main trouble is that the specified Putin still has not understood anything and will never understand. He is simply physically unable to comprehend what he did in the world and in his country. And all the calls addressed to him, and crafty speeches, and subtle hints, and reasonable sentences, and crazy to at least reach out - this is an empty concussion. There, in the air, and the hand of an old friend, a long -standing ally, an experienced courtier hangs. He reaches out of the hand of help, he stands that for a year with an outstretched hand, but Putin has long unraveled all these plans, and does not give in to provocations, and does not need help.
Because it is impossible for him to help him, and he knows this, cutting off the path to salvation to himself and Russia, and is terribly proud of.
