Let's give Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin his due. He has built a political system that allows him to address the country's parliament with a speech that neither Obama nor any of the Western European leaders would dare repeat. In 2008, Putin crashed the market a few weeks before the crisis, promising to “send a doctor” to businessmen, and then explained that Russia is an island of stability in the world economy. In 2009, he argued that the Americans were to blame for everything.

Defense Minister Anatoly Serdyukov, speaking at a meeting with representatives of public organizations, promised that a five-day work week, as well as afternoon rest, would be introduced for conscript soldiers. In addition, conscripts will be spared from “performing functions unusual for them” - they will not prepare food and clean the territory and premises, this will be done by civil organizations.

Serdyukov expressed himself quite carefully, because according to the regulations and the Law on the Status of Military Personnel, all these proposals are unrealistic. It is necessary to change the charters and make adjustments to them. Because now the working group on the statutes is absolutely unqualified and incapable. If the minister gives the command and they work on it, everything will be fine.

In the Kremlin The jester is not joking April 21, 2010 Anton Orech I am not a supporter in everything to see the second bottom in everything, so that in every action of the authorities to look for a deep and certainly vile meaning, so that every word spoken by close to power should be regarded as non -proper and spoken by the go -ahead. However, Wolfovich’s speech after Putin’s report in the Duma was curious.

The President of Belarus again staged an anti-Russian demarche, and a double one at that. On April 20, while the Russian prime minister was reporting on the work of the government to deputies, the Belarusian leader delivered his annual message to the people and parliament and stated that it was necessary to get rid of Russia's dictatorship and cooperate with the United States.
