Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance Alexei Kudrin said that if the government is headed by current President Dmitry Medvedev (remember, this was proposed by Prime Minister Vladimir Putin in case he wins the elections), he will not work there. According to him, quoted by RIA Novosti, he does not see himself in such a government. “I think that the differences that I have, they do not allow me to go to this government,” he said.

On September 25, 2011, a civil meeting of the Committee of Five Demands (K-5) will be held in Moscow . Representatives of the non-systemic opposition and protest groups of civil activists will gather together to express their distrust of the authorities. One of the main demands of the committee is the resignation of Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, President Dmitry Medvedev and the government of the Russian Federation.
