standard growth wrists this cruel filmic of the we continue some elements modernizing our economy and modernizing our entire life second this is also important our new look on. the each use of childhood in what we call russia's demographic development. i used this subject as the keynote of my address to the federal assembly and i suggested a number of measures will there be sufficient i don't think so we will get a further perfectness measures but still this is the central essential centerpiece of our development without wishing and appropriate to him a couple of childhood policy we won't be able to progress further the third will be another important event the heat wave on the weather problems wildfires and other disasters that we had this summer this was a very difficult situation both in a psychological and

a physically unfortunately it affected our economy slowed down our growth unfortunately and we had some difficulties with foodstuffs so this was another important event and especially he caused some he lost over human life another subject that i think is very important at the camera is about is the issue off security when you might we understand security not just as our domestic situation could go though this is of course important but also global security reform this year headed very important event we were able to reach an agreement with the u.s. and signed a very important treaty the new start treaty you with the. this document are you often course it is a cornerstone of security for the next decade or. so you know in the whole

world and in europe specifically and i'm very happy that we are making progress seem ready fineness document. of course i should also mention another event here but it's the sixty fifth anniversary of our victory in world war two this was definitely a very important date for a swim. and this is something that makes us the proper russian citizens this is what makes us more than people at the same time we remember the past. so these are the five vents of this year the most difficult events have been the most important events but at the same time of course we can also mention many other things and we can discuss them later for example i think it is very important but if we were to even prove our law enforcement agencies that are fighting crime will be people who and also. the police or form with whom mr president will be

on. strategic nuclear weapons during. what i always like to go by o'henry. that here the united states. had to face up to a lot of dick difficulties and a democratic president obama as a democratic president has done a good job of promoting the new start treaty and the senate why did you speak to him so late in our day yesterday did he celebrates the ratification. you know he had to take some time out he had to rest a like a riyadh the person he has a right to rest so he took some time out to celebrate christmas but that's why it was so late i think it was eleven pm i fully agree with you he did a very good job under difficult conditions he managed to you let me call his senate ratified this document the new start treaty arse. security for the next two years

will be based on this treaty of an arc insane general than it is very easy for me to work with president obama he can really listen to you and hear you he does not have stereotypes he's not limited by stereotypes and probably what is the most important thing for a bowler titian he keeps his word in the way with the with the with the news start a with a w. two you'll. see the ready for eyeing another important treaty on nuclear cooperation . on international issues he keeps his word saw i hope he has a good rest he did it got a good job and this is what i told him yesterday i told you that barak have some rest. to come mr president he probably won't have such a good time next year as a defeat at the november elections makes the situation more complicated for him is there any danger that this may affect your upcoming agreements and reverse the

progress in our relations with the us. you know i hope that these threats will be minimized to the couple of course there are people in america who. sympathize with this so called to release it in our relations with other people who are not so happy about it and they think that the russian federation is an incarnation of evil there are people like that and what can we do you this is just democracy it had to work because you have various people coming to power with various convictions and others and they pursue their convictions. in the corresponding bills but still i think that the american society in the american it which established mint will have enough to tap in to continue this policy and with president obama i think it will be more difficult for him now but still he will be able to cope with these problems a year ago in this studio when you spoke about the results. us and nine. we have

said what you can do what we we calculated our losses from the crisis who we are we try to find a way out of it and you said that he russia has to make use of the crisis to. get over a second illogical backward as the word modernization was probably the most popular word the most used this year and russia's internal god takes. you to read is what they think are the first results so you modernization for this year. and they are of a regular russian. you know i think their results are quite good when we do have some results but not too many of them but i think we're all different magic people and we realized from the very beginning when we just started this policy and you know kind of and i realized this even when i wrote my article that it is impossible to make substantial progress in just one year but what is important is that more than

a solution is that i will do now on our political agenda that people are really working on if there is a doctor new laws but i would like to think the state duma for supporting the president's policy would be a lot of big government issues decrees on the subject and the most important thing is that even business men are no much more attentive move towards innovation but you much that you think we didn't have a breakthrough a major breakthrough but still our business men realize now that they should invest in you know they should in more than a zeeshan in these five priority is of otherwise who will depend on our own materials which is what we saw in our economy over the past two years so modernization is under way perhaps needs tempo has increased compared to previous years and but still we haven't looked at the fence theory far i would. as

for regular things that well you know even light bulbs in the new we used to d.v.r. modern and they're saving energy so we should also do this at our daily life level and show picture with you know what. you already mentioned one of the key points of your state of the nation address in the world for our children there's another subject. people are very concerned about abandoned children you know that in russia. i mean parents often beat their children and what have we have a few orphans this causes a lot of threads and in some cases. even choose to make money off their children the situation i give them a problem in school and on the street with the children have to. face up to the probably the most difficult challenge of drugs what can we do about all this problem. this is really a huge problem and

a little bit before i actually said something about this. in my address to the federal simly but still kicking the can some issues but if you are not attracting a lot of attention and sometimes aren't hushed up well speaking of abandoned children were really have a large number of those even though the official figure is for war friends decreased over the past two years for example or orphanages for could have reduced by a third the number of children to show up there partially because of adoption and foster families sen haps this is good if it is here it out according to law and is being monitored but that the same time there are children who he was officially have a family but there is suffering in their families and we don't have official statistics for those deaths why introduce new institution we now have. of the

presidential commissioner and his four children and he is monitoring the situation in various regions and i think that regions should have their own commissioners to the it is very important to didn't attack the threat for children who were at an early stage last year we had over sixty five dollars an appearance private golf apparently the rides that we should be very careful about did on the one hand a child can only have one father and one mother so if the authorities make such a decision they deprive the child of the closest to the people he has he or she has but in some cases we need to do that just for the sake of he's safe he will be with that and this is what type of government bodies and n.g.o.s should work on a very actively mission he will close attention to that is really the cure will you know we are now working on good childhood maturity to demography but it will be

pneumonia and this will help us with track of the society is attention to such issues i mean people are now writing about is the earthly appealing to me through various channels really internet for example if you can and you can always notice some trends some tendencies and correct things and say recently when we signed a new law on maternity benefits. but because and in principle when the government worked on it they thought that it will affect a small number of women some will benefit from it some may lose something but actually i received a lot of letters are asking ok what are you doing margaret you're working on the demographic situation on the two and now this is my benefit. what i said will be decreased for somebody's mother is of the so do you think this will help them or would put the situation but i'm with you i would like to see right now that i made

a decision to go back to this issue and make some changes to that law and now the women we've got and we'll be able to make the role which with the shorts and decide how this benefit will be calculated and then all these problems will be resolved the reason i mention this now for everybody to hear it because i want everybody to realize that the authorities should be able to listen to people if they did something wrong and there is a problem and they should be able to correct that. mr president about the drugs you garbage called good from urals he tried to fight drugs in his own city. and our law enforcement agencies nearly put him to jail making the local drug lords happy and the public interfered you interfered until it didn't happen. you go which

call for the use and. come on what he. said methods. to stop drug addicts from taking drugs would. you do you think these methods should be applied more widely because this has practiced and the u.s. and other developed countries with well of course i'm not an expert in this field but i'd like to see a few words first of all drugs in school. drugs in colleges this is not a popular subject with us here from time to time i get the impression that we don't have this problem but unfortunately we do you have such a problem even according to official statistics we have one hundred sixty thousand children. school children who have problems with drugs one hundred and sixty thousand school children this is really

a lot and this is just off the shelf statistics we really should wish to speak out about this in some cases i remember i remember i was talking to some people i was talking to journalists and they said this is a difficult subject it's better not to discuss it because this will feel depressed people in the film life is so hard in the if we start talking about drug addicts well i think this is we inherited this from the soviet period we used to say. we don't have a problem with drugs. people still have the stereotype no we should speak out about that and you but because that's just the external side of the problem now concerning the treatment i'm not a specialist there are all kinds of methods used and these methods should be legitimate of course. corey sion to hear is wrong people are indignant over it but at the same time. the issue of the free will the issue off the choice i think the decision has to be made by the drug addict or

maybe his relatives in some cases confirmation there is no other chance to help this person so the dilemma is very simple margaret. or maybe courage in treatment and people who criticize this approach should remember about that image maybe. labor therapy would be effective if you can remember the soviet generation talk. about their own patch of land. and your idea that you stated in your message about providing land providing families with learnt all that. was was welcome to families healthy own children with went on there as we well know we have millions of acres of abandoned land in russia and perhaps we should consider a way to bring bring the people back to the lands and find the mean and that can is

to provide land for those who wanted him there with he no this is something that i always think about our countries are really unique some of us we have the biggest into thier largest territory of course this includes some arctic regions but not only are you. sick and historical or russia has always been an agrarian state and. even to d. we have ten percent of all women with the cultivated land in the world and huge resources of water utility and we should not only export the world food but we can also have a decent life because of that or we all know how to use to be the most a lot of our people who believe you are living in small apartments that will have more stability some time in the past this was good because old people used to live in a communal foot's they had nothing but in principle we should spread our population

throughout our countries territory we should have a proper little land policy in a room of stimulating demographics is just one element. and soon we'll adopt but it's of new laws concerning that but in principle we should consider how can we help our people and them to have a simplified procedure not only to get some land blog that's a cultivated but even america to build their residence dear i think we need we need to change our entire mindset if you will because we shouldn't stain on one fluid and close together all the time we should have proper conditions for living with and political this will largely depend on how this policy will be implemented in the regions because you know what happens when you come to

a paulus large city and you have small cities around it when you small towns and then nobody believes beyond that and at the same time the big city has terrible conditions for life oh people are living together a lot of garbage and living conditions are terrible when they would be environmental situation is not so good. we should work spread out throughout the territory this is geopolitical very important for our future would think you missed an addendum. everyone including me was quite impressed by your words. when you said that our political system is showing symptoms of stagnation. as with people ask for a land. well they ask for land they demand justice and. their demands can't always sufficiently it can't always reach their forty's by

official channels and. you believe you have said the system is becoming brands have i imagined in the faces of our politicians certain politicians when they're. placed by demand by ten or so on as they travel around. so on one hand we have this and the official politics on the other hand. are the situations street politics as so as we have seen. pretty desperate you you said we have to print chaos in our streets and that works but do you think a policing response is sufficient here we should the answer is obvious of course no police should that act quickly and effectively sometimes police shoot so if we have them and according to law. i think to de lucia when you are

a police it's a catch the what it is which is pretty much has demonstrated you can use qualities in some cases even though we do you have some problems with our police but with your response should not only be limited to police and. exuding not be taken out in the streets of politics should no longer there can be street politics but in good should be within the legal framework of course we can have to get lines and rallies and demonstrations but you shouldn't go they should always be sanctioned to fall on them but i'm with you mike and i think we're right it is progressing towards open democracy in a couple in some cases we will reintroduce some institutions that up it have that it wasn't long been forgotten but there should be another dimension to politics people know what you think the bodies should feel responsible for the your you know authority they have received one you know our main party united russia should not

just arrange supremes. it should be tapped full and strong it should promote on the right people as for the corrupt officials and those who don't want to work properly should be demoted or even punished other bodies should be invited to discuss it with all the issues the fact that they're in the opposition there's not mean that they should not participate in discussion of the camel and absolute this includes television and i know that you did something to help our opposition party is to appear more often on television and speak truth. justice and comfort and comparable . to what we have now but well they asked for it and they got it and it is important that they are here not only on federal channels but also in regions because the regions that the authorities always have a way to work. so this law should work and we should not be happy with our

achievements and be contented. that we took some point if we managed to do something we will stop some destructive process is we solve some problems if we stop some processes that would have destroyed our country but you can't to develop because of stability you should have drive and drive implies that you want to do something you have to live like this means you want to overcome your self so we were one of those who think they're all he should stay at ku chevelle in france. mr president you. people have said that the police had them on a square was not that. decisive enough as they suppressed. the wording of the rally. are you get reports on the killing that caused the rally.

well i think the police acted with different glee. you know our habits at first but it means that when the when first attempts were made it was to start a ride and i think that when you feel a little youth violence started perhaps police should have been more tough. but look this is what the military police did later look so police should remember this that the skills that they should have here regardless of what did they were called in the police shoot a pretty good be very. careful when it deals with people who are not violent who are not breaking the law but if you break the law if you are start a riot if you if you're thinking think they'll go violent and political then you should get what you deserve when you much the police should act tough but he chin these people should realize that they will be stopped. well and detained in later

of that you've but it's the least people committed some crimes and they were crimes committed yet when they will be brought to justice and go to prison this is what we should do there is no other way but it s. four reports of course i read through all the reports i saw the reports a bug criminal case is launched against some people and not just hooliganism and there are articles there are other articles of the criminal division of the company code involved with all these incidents will be properly investigated this includes the murder of the football fan at that with and other murders and i'd like to say something about that absolutely the authorities believe it or should be very balanced i mean any kind of authorities the federal authorities and regional authorities again not sympathize with one side and condemn the other side until this is wrong with the wrong idea everybody should act according to law like humans

and there is no other way otherwise on the you know we will increase the tension in the country with very much either in one part of the country or in the other part of the country this is very important but many people say that. what happened happened because well not so much because of the murder but because the suspects on the murder were at least trade away here. and this was just who will have nothing to say bugger this i mean we will go in a direct little water i gave a direct order to acquitting restarted to launch an investigation why this case was closed and why those people because those suspects and you were released even though there was sufficient evidence that they were they were involved the people in the murderess so if the fold of those investigators is established they should

be by. you cannot release any body if you have sufficient evidence to prove that this person was involved in a violent crime murder in which you or bodily harm but what did this happen i recently spoke about this said it meaning what is this corruption or fear of a big word they are afraid of some people who came and threatened them we should investigate that we were. returning to the police issue and i think last year will remember last year as the year when you want a started reforming this institution and this is one of the most probably over for you a large institution but. not to the soviet union then you were transitioning to russia . but my question is could this reform and with just the name of them are militia being changed to the name police on. the word police itself

that many people don't like and see on that with you more like a you know well i have already explained my position on this issue many times of course this is not just. the matter of name our law enforcement system should be effective and we have a lot of questions about our police it's not just because there are bad people working there and there are all sorts of people working there most of these people risk their lives and health every day protecting all of us every day of course there are also some bad people there but some groups but in general are bullies our police system our police and the laws come from the soviet era at that time the situation was different the atmosphere on. the street was different we had

a woman last capabilities hsan so police should correspond with the current level of development in our society middle east legislation should be more and i think the police should get a read of some defects of the leo isn't that in the plans have a very negative effect on its sarette beautician so i think it would be a ride like london to change the very system the war in which is the most important thing to change the financing for policing because we are starting from twenty twelve would even the regular lieutenant will get much more money and to say nothing about higher officials higher officers but if we also need to change the equipment they use they should have proper conditions and proper equipment and at the same time we should also change the name change

a symbol and i think the name is a symbol because when we say militia. to us it was. at the bar when the this is a voluntary unit to protect little water but professionals throughout the world are called police and it was there is nothing ideological with you here and lo this is just a fabric and but again i say this is not the most important thing it's up to our lawmakers there could currently considering this bill and soon it will go into force. on the second quarter of the next year of the i just went ahead and when you said woman when you talked about a return to forgotten forms of direct democracy do you mean did you mean the public discussion of the long police still with not only that but well that is a good example no matter what some people say after we had a public discussion we received l.
