on the good music was silent corp they account for. all of the total will come and the press accounts will just. becomes a major catalyst for interethnic three hundred actions of the it is a mighty designation disadvantaged social groups that are seeing their fall back and the forests are growing faster than elsewhere in the nation i haven't eventually raiden to find i gave them give them the national nose down big recession or so the social the. social rushworth of the bully by shows just to ease your way the situation you probably are but their existing promise him worse than honorable and other things which are easy to talk about because given what these are exactly those throws a serious wish can be used to judge real policy when history and his sufficiency and goals which should be set for the future. i don't because i didn't know i would want to make it so i'm going to clear the heart of the problem

a situation even tragedy is with wish russia's confronted me in the bills as they develop a method will never make us give up our rupture excuse me ideally we want to and we just we have wanted to and we want to leave in a democratic state which is what used to be called as their society or for free people in the world free health violence and poverty the idea of them and we have to preserve the integrity of our country the most of us because as we stand we will . have no country told people are they will help us a country as it has it is all over the russia it will be six despite it appears a position of the extremists there is no terrorists motions on their own they are the hands over a national boasted he is not only any challenge but this is an investigation is now

a place i think of historically the fate of russia he was just knowledge and so the collective creative creativity are for all the peoples we believe in and their people which differ in languages religion also helps remind us that must be cut is precisely what the utilities they lost the t.v. we have all this manish notifier resources knowledge through their ability to create new knowledge is to respond to any challenges and at the final we. should all his of power for him too powerful state and what is more important for us is it because we have with this more examples for powerful and distinctive states russia has become the bible's the source not where you would let me quote the wards of my distinguished colleague the president of to look here just as your going to move on. it was there's differences between us and make us richer and

strengthen our unity although for subscribe to the is is what's applied to all countries will. of course all should abide by the laws and norms of the elementarily rules of politeness respect the customs of other people in your view though some go into other places to leave and behaving inappropriately who are committing a crime should be partitioned. and the same applies to one who infringes on the rights of minorities but efforts to ensure the rule of law cannot serve as a pretext for discrimination against minority or majority on the ground so for nationality. oh ethnic cultures in russia should be free of the old mint and which says citizen must have the right to freely choose where to live in any regions. otherwise we who was the united's country and

we should understand. illegitimately comical to tears of russian citizens should be also protected by the state and each citizen in our country should should be given a chance to hear for i am coming to the integrity of private property regardless of its size or volume. even the obvious one one is irritated by at least should be given to it. you know what history we use to try to create a society and with reach people the results of these social experiments on the one who is willing known it lead to stimulation poverty. and are pushing pleaders integration of the state. and it happens not because so they can spiral logical effects conspiracy global conspiracy but because we turn out to be a creator and we. do if we want to be visionary we're going with

more than that is why we will never allow this to repeat what they will probably lose their slogans are used by some politicians in my opinion staged focused so its efforts on the first floor eradicating poverty and at the end here much has been done in this syria let me remind you see you know ninety ninety two little fish. fillets of the population of the earth below poverty line then in the third and when i joined the operation it was my younger twenty nine and by train to san this and this felt to. a little bit more than filter saying this is a progress but unfortunately i'm not actually this progress shouldn't just talked earlier this year the shop price why it had a severe adverse effect on this situation now this. has gone.

now it's already here and probably ten percent of the situation is fully controlled we have problems and you're frankly speaking with. many of those making a little bit higher earliest line of difficult life as well. normally you don't really but he will not lease or allow the poverty to resume their fancy if you wish it may and the journey measures to help lift the pole in distress to economic situation. for example for the colony a job creation in a prison cell or is a social support for the low income people in many way through to be a man because the priority is what is the paid for the near future i think would be the priority for any political force which would call the authorities i work with

known our country and shift clean believe in order to improve considerably the living standards of our people if. we chose to look not on the standards bards the very last. one of them a national resource base structure of our well being should be transformed oh dave yourself or otherwise we'll be dependent up on the resource trails for the modernization of the production introduction of new technologies growing out of infrastructure or innovation creation and use the tops business and industry is should enhance the pretty routine culture of libra business employees profits business and employees profits and the profits and income of all russians which is this common over what's about this is how it was treated sure and i think this is the right strategy. and you and dear friends colleagues. and yet

for me the answer to the question. should instead be in the age of social delusions he's practically clear. and stammer this. is this is played through can be a leno show up also be diverse the law should big conflicts you will probably hear one of them complex. it should be. smart intelligent in washington the truths of their world of the system of feedback with different ways of society and money with people who wouldn't be a tiny a social groups it was the plagues when he doesn't see. a problem with one of these groups this is not a problem of this group this is the problem of the state the state should understand its own be a pro regardless of their culture and nationality or profession because of the furthest thing i think it might seem as commonplace maxime's still have to talk

about this because today. was never which we did notice there is a huge temptation to start again to tighten the screws your brain works off the requisite for this and that would be the simple onslaught of your prime separately is my point with the what should be done as easily as to say was sure to be followed up there on the leadership to. tighten the screws but it's not the way. you should not limit the rights so for people and your shouldn't. even apply the child public criticism that is why in the policy of any state and we are not in any stance european asian ones.

which is just to get all your sometimes he acts on the rig reaction his lady is so holds for the service he has a nice prevail in politics and. all fashions all the same if she is. politically poetical part is made their way to the apollo and so some countries around. there are. influence and factor in the social life of a space and some place this culture aside even officially approved of like the progression of the gardenia new border beer is even bigger then the notorious building walls are written to us and we're here calls for the expulsion of all foreigners and suppression of any kind of minorities. and i will later stress. i'm talking about not with those states we each are on their way of democracy building i'm talking about the most advanced the most democratic states.

right here in russia in our country i'm going with the roles of those who would like to. you who don't like labels that's here we're different people and there are people who would like to be in box with you and them and go in alliance into the bright future here where i'm convinced this is not the way maria where it is struck to focus on that i believe that this state of the with that should follow the society trends just i mean they should keep part of this their trance rather than dragonet wealth and moreover the leadership of states is the people with their own impressions mistakes. and their leaders. in an islamic if another wards like this the

we should to you and i just to be more realities and to be adequately and should support and has social diversity as the main national as a truth is we continue to increase for national in the commission support for the n.g.o.s of different profile and level of government and secondly we should trend of support of a people to get access to new independent information sources are included in the incentives the making for development of digital television programmes internationally and personally involved in this and i believe this is exclusively important for our country we are practically even now it's digitally how big a country but still there is room for improvement of the wish thirdly actually improve the education system and science while encouraging international cooperation in innovation and demented in a spirit of freedom i t.v.

so you know universities because here we should if you want to you well upon without exclusion a tradition ali and at the same time martin. cultures which. he listed no country in the world with the way left and finally a few for maybe the most relevant taken in so called the forthcoming parliamentary elections. article thirty and offer the constitution of russia so it's forth the principle of ideological and political diversity to deal with russia recently as it were brought over election we have made our own legislation more sensitive to this principles like a political partisan has no equal opportunity has to be presented as i don't see any election thresholds has been reduced from seventy five percent for the potus he can be placed in this they don't mark years i have already said this is and storing them in the end of the same term gradual modernization of our political system and

in my opinion this is what we need but i hope they open some are saying that we should do everything swiftly and quickly and that would be a success but this is one position or the other position they have that let's keep what we have now everything is viewed so leader of the way persaud their political supports of institutions way of good situation in the economy have sold. out to make clear goals with harm do harm they are what we should be developing in their how nice the way will be complex society in which many groups and senators will influence exist they call for further decentralization of the straight into allegations of some public functions of the social organizations and some almost all from higher authorities to regional and human issue of all your of course is of the trends of the development of the russian state which. it's obviously this is

the trend for the development of other states as well dear friends in conclusion i would like to say that here obligations social creatures missions which are commission in place and beneath the members representatives of ensures journalists . and i sincerely thank you for the participation in the work of our work for. our forum. sure has become maybe and not a link and they will both give you a thought these feedback system you must reach is be in multics on the planets this forum at the. provides for. a chance to listen to each other better to understand that each other no is not a demonstration of. boundless they will succeed. that is why the human. all mankind has
