we should learn to live freely but freedom shoo the coupled with responsibility i think it is a major achievement i think i've answered a customs union with because i stand on the maybe this is the first supranational the structure of that russian ship has joined we have obviously expanded our market seriously and made it more attractive for investment and trade. but there also we have some serious. are we at the beginning of the global division of labor as well as increased we should proceed further in bunches as fast as we can so you should also interrupt other countries to the customs union of course if they're ready for that with the goods on and we should create a wider integration also video elias i think eurasia union will soon become an important player on the a global market. timing we already of course for closer integration with the

european union and with asia pacific and on the beaks with limited breaks countries with other regional alliances. but this states can ascend trust on the part of our partner use the future. and this would be more we can it was the make steps unilateral it's a two way street. and yes nothing else next year of course this doesn't the end of the russia for the other will abandon its sovereignty and they will no longer is up of and will not have a reliable national security system we've started at modernizing the system it was in effect a formal. army or you. and rearmament program it is definitely a priority for the next three years senior. decisions

to make are the decisions to make our army professional has been we need a few years the number of. recruiting servicemen will be minimal but it's to show you the number of contracts old through the growth of the money at the dinners not of course this will affect the solution it will slow your wages of florida servicemen and military pensions. we're going in the same thing with any naturally talk with we should probably invest in the twenty trillion roubles. he little when you. are in a sewer. this will take a shit in your a professional to show us thirty pieces with it if you just go on the market even those that used to be quite special also we need to build an award in a system for research based on our best traditional the best

traditions and the best practices of other countries has been organizing our economy and we can the government open and responsible. of washington this will also help with another task in fighting systemic corruption. this is perhaps the biggest threat to our freedom and wealth of our citizens and the development of our state moloch when you my i have always realized . that to address this serious problem in. time. and it's great when you that will power there is nothing you can achieve here with slogans and publicize it with which and really this we are confronted with a very influential world and become quite often even well armed people literally opponents of the. eventually china said it usually the biggest

problem. is to despise your enemy i look at it but we have declared war against corruption we know who is our enemy and we will not back down. like another to. see polygynous lane of tools for fighting corruption and the start international conventions. we've got that in the last four years so we have created using instruments for the first time i mean the thousand year long history of our history and we are now really punishing people for corruption which we have thousands and tens of thousands of people who have been in congress for there that will also introduce additional measures to fight the so-called big corruption and also on the daily corruption with corruption we are actively working on that on the terms

of legislation it will be a part of the national glance of her options will introduce a new system for all over see that the string in the expenditures of government office will say that we will also stablished special structures for any corruption related investigation he will also introduce procedures for public oversight. over government officials the only way to defeat corruption will use by cooperating with the civil society only creating an atmosphere. where corruption is not tolerated in any form i stress that in any foreign. i think you will agree that this kind of their fear level is gradually emerging in russia. says that if the food much will depend on the court system and law enforcement agencies their only priority can be

a law. everybody should be equal before the law regardless of their position. and other things in a past few years it would have taken a serious doubts to steal an increase in self the word system and we also made a first step in reforming law enforcement there too it is should be transparent there should be public oversight and there should be no insecurities from government offices and narrative it is and i'm so i feel confident that we will be able to achieve old. colleagues friends. but you know i realize their corruption. cannot be defeated only from above and. this is why we have been developing our political system and strengthening our democracy. i initiated equal access for all political parties

to mass media machine. technical technical equipment for polling stations but you are so many meisel after all for all i read. a letter or threshold and i mean any other steps. this year in march that we will implemented and you on precedence of political reform in the past twenty years let me remind you. to thousand and four we have adopted a number of laws to. consolidate our political parties and we also again in the use of direct. tauriel election said their time it was absolutely justified the political system was unstable that he we inherited from the anarchy and we all got our key of the ninety's. we had to the needed we wore a healthy. white often we had to do this in the manual little troll mode

and we have achieved that you can at least you can then see if separatist tendencies but it showed that major parties were able to create peer to actions in all regional parliaments we have never had that in the past to didi's parties are more responsible for the system has stabilized. but as always happens according to philosophical law once the system stabilizes it develops certain with what was signs of stagnation so we have this question of what do do we. next of the should believe everything else is stuff. you want to. use manual kalischer all mode for every fifteen or should we go bear to a more effective way of managing the start people's direct involvement in politics

which i think the answer is obvious to everybody look at another. tory election. registration of foreign political parties all this indicates that we have achieved a higher level of political culture in our society democracy or democracy. run he's no longer a swear word. it's pristine chasseur been recovered and its prospects countries are security i believe they became old school grew city. direct involvement in politics for our citizens it was a question you will not bring us there. because on the contrary this will make our country stronger and more effective.

and i expect. that this so-called open government that we are establishing now will play a special role in its working groups argue political period let's bring you more details sometimes even your breakthrough proposals and new government and policies look at the ideas through calls for fighting corruption of the developing economical system so one more this is it works we will continue for main elements first of all we should look with on the mechanism is for direct d.n.a. exchange between the various governmental institutions and civil society. of the government should be transparent and open if you can stick a foot of snow but this is the biggest requirement only in the early thirty second professional communities everybody when he wants to make their contribution which economic policy should how are we to do that as a structure we may have

a special commission. and this i mean expert foreign should be here is that they actually put councillors i was in the russian girl. this structure will development keep reform in this industry is only for geary's government institution and of course a solution in our nature the universe is of. our targets together with civil society but i would like to stress that this open government is a system good at the civil which is open to everybody who wants to join it not just for a chosen few as they wish which i'm sure you experience so in any country seeing. the more people dissipate in government administration the better political and economic. situation is simply this is why i believe it is necessary to improve the institution of expert councils in the government only in the us more and of

course we should also have more of. the government should become another resource for constant yak the feedback i was elated with and as you know i have always paid much attention to that please if you know this is why as president i wore a deal with the wealthy my disbanded the institution of special representatives and then i think it was civil society through the internet and other. receiving information on how new legislation is implemented in real life i think this is very important for everybody who has any authority for everybody. sistema this is a sin of the open government does more than it should provide opportunities for additives all citizens and that's pretty communities to prepare decisions to be

taken of by the government. should finally destroy the absolute of the knobbly of government officials for instance the developing and begin to assess see about your role perform the system for months with me third we should analyze. them. in the mass media they play a critical role in spro says this is why i have set up an additional real source i mean television and i hope. the public television the world become more in year two of discussions with us and will make the government more open you've got a good approach the floor of the national press there at the open government even is there to get a simple system. period for people to get serious in the hall and other services we should introduce i will try to acknowledge that minimize people are aware of the states and we should also have a way to assess the performance of those who provided those government services and

resolve all the problems may come up or else they have fulfilled our obligation. a did with all of being the internet throughout our country once we have a bird on the we can have them introduce elop joining ideals for us citizens this idea with this is a complete element of good wishes trying to democracy and wishing it would if we should raise the competence that is the c.e.o. and also really new the staff of a municipal. authorities which it is your first of all if and you know it you should really form of the system of government service. this process has been going on all the time but at this point it is our view slowly entering. that public servants should have examined standardised all system of exams. and

putting on petitions all the benefits for public servants ocean of which we should be eventually monetize them with. their money and wage. for market level all for their money they should be that we should also use rotation and public assessment of the perks of nurse. in municipal and other levels from the mortgage finally we should change the model for many of those less to working. in government. and we should also stimulate an interest in new generations of modern problems with a look at one point of party government officials we should always look to the future none of us who were here forever. now did you that was. your friends. with this song we also have

a very important reason to be proud of it. and i have to say something about it are you there last year of the first time in many years in the ceiling or russia actually increase nationally its population instead of decreasing we have four children now in our country. plus in the last year. we had about six percent of bush twenty percent more babies then in two thousand and six. this year. we have which one million or more babies under five used to be this is that so. we. started this and that in them no matter what dreadful scenario some people may talk to us about the birth three is the best indicator of the overall situation in the country. somewhere sheena should get us the way of feel people feel

above question in their life or what they think about the future. birthrate. than most of their youth third floor russia break up is creating a new dishes and they were people are no longer afraid of children it's you'll see if they know that they will have enough of the money enough opportunities to provide education for their children and their children will. position in society and if they have difficulties in the government and society will always support them but you of course once again i have to say that we are just taking the first few steps you. perhaps we have more problems than achievements but i would like to think everybody who worked on this list of national priorities project the result we have achieved is critically important for our country of course we should not

rest on war all solution on. the demographic shift and with especially because we are now going to face a serious demographical challenge that goes through the ninety's we should do all of the can to help our children and grow as well there should. people who love our country in other words three people going to a concert for the option of the system or we just recently i approved a new concept for tell on the least on this document one of the government authorities a tol'able should develop that appropriate for grants our biggest goal is to. make sure that child is that option was taking care of by the government and society and has an opportunity to improve their capacities developing. which is required in every area of work of course cannot be achieved without the

civil thing you've got in there with your we should not underestimate the way culture affects it. i can he see the lack of culture it is a situation we're aggression and justice. and accountability and we have all seen that in the history of our country it is absolutely true that you can our little. well reduce if you person who is well educated without culture a kid is dangerous it is particularly important to. the regions i still this helps to prove that living standards makes the region some more attractive for investors creates conditions for developing and fulfilling our human potential it is very important for us to bring culture closer to people especially to our children its culture should be attractive and also

affordable to people. we need more than our system for supporting them culture in our lives that of based on the region between the government and we everybody who wants to invest their money their efforts there are times when this work another critical task is preparing a new generation of professionals for the health care and education systems. we've been we will allocate serious funds for. the mostly in the immediate term we need to prepare hundreds of thousands of specialists in these areas this is a very difficult task. probably up with other people but we shouldn't the boy always had a mission there for your we're starting a new program in russian universities training about ricin and l. for that he speciality is based on new standards. will attract bleeding conscious

russian especially the good looting those who have been trained of broad and whole sort of foreign professionals with a high level of skills he also a large number of doctors who sent teachers in the actual should be to stand up to the flu training with the center is in other countries of course and it's guaranteed that they will come back to russia probably in supply was also when we should emphasize the matter of training administrative professionals for the health care system and education i mean if the headmaster is a can program and achieve seriousness all those who take this training horses go to europe should be provided with a vision of it once a year. additional groups we should change the situation already a little bit with that is the also of course we will collide in the more inequality

in access to hardwell to education with them and it is absolutely about that one year. education is the best guardian of your freedom. it is better then an army of them when your capital money should develop a system of ongoing education whatever your age is whatever your living situation is you should with a little able to your education we should use the vast potential of the noncommercial sector i feel mr matter of nor did i we should pay special attention to protecting the health of our children. and we not only need institutional change in the health care system including of the new equipment in and human effort of that we should also a lot of money at you as a good healthy lifestyle and create everything is necessary for that of course it's good that's a quote pledged delegates and high tech medical services but will that will is possible in another bush has been

a bailable to two point five times more people last year then when we started our new experience of health care a national priority approach to what experts believe are more there which it is much more effective to prevent sickness than to treat it can usually some with system is that of a question of those with of course the health care system should be competitive and this should be competition among insurance companies and i'm long past peoples this is the only way we can or i would approach make sure that our people can really choose where to go and that they're going to go through to get medical services but the thought of social lot of children is definitely a priority. and all our actions will go along this line here thank you colleagues friends.

with the billion year. in conclusion i would like to tell you what i think you missed we're going to is the way for assessing the performance of government institutions and what. you want to insist the first and most important index is the life expectancy in russia it is it should increase in six years meaning which. by another four years and we have every opportunity to reach this figure of twenty eighteen life expectancy should be seventy five years if people live longer. if the course is that if you slewed if it is very simple if people live longer. this month we have really achieved something in every area where the second according to the presently share of the family is living below the poverty line should be definitely

not less than ten percent. and the average income of a russian family should match the standard definition of middle class third. and fourth misty reading it business that i see a whole har russia should say the trick with rays from its current. very early war position. it's ranked one here in the twentieth in terms of business climate. what's the number forty and eventually should. be a number it's when it was number twenty no later than in the year twenty twenty. fourth i see those numbers for them and you mean it will russia should have at least twenty five million new effective jobs it will be a city with europe of course and mailing them in on commodity images and trees which it should not replace productivity working close is. relative it's the jobs.

i said think it was bizarre but it's the cheers me up at the market on egypt we should reduce unlike the unemployment rate it's a minimum level less than five percent in the next years a labor productivity claim it's a very difficult matter in what we definitely need we need more productivity by one point five to three times which will make the russian economy competitive in key strategic sectors thief. it may sound very. much in west small objectives but it's important and least by the russian universities should be in the top one hundred but world ratings are what this means that our education will improve in general. just

six but. most of russian farmers should have a way to prove your housing condition is not that at least once in fifteen years and seven what i see are those which purely russia should be in the top ten in the world wide in the terms. but introducing electronic technology mcgeary is aries has to consummate with the. sugar cycle because that once again i would like to stress is that if we all work at how to really love them in an open seat it's silly and board than it is and we will achieve all these goals. here with issues that are to work and one more thing i would like to mention today yeah. i sincerely would like to thank everybody who worked with me.

here is some. well i know i had many opportunities to see that you are real professionals and you're a dedicated to our common cause and we have achieved a lot national. our society has become different willy croup it is more open and more successful. the country is more comfortable it's a little bit and more attractive no. thank you everybody for the right my. must be pretty sure. we still have a lot of work ahead of us we need to do a lot. c.d.u.

serving. our homeland our country the great russia thank you ali. how they're going to listen to me treat me again every major address at the kremlin they became president in two thousand and eight and i will not be handing reins over to vladimir putin let's no cross lived. he's been listening in as well to this. arena quanta of groove the dress wasn't it and take us through the key points of the outgoing president speech. well let's just say that so russian president and he will be staying in that post of course for the next two weeks afterward after reasonable to hand over the reins to buy reports of basically there was hardly topic which didn't cover bay it was mostly concerned of course the so-called country's priority projects and those of course concerned the poverty level in the country which he said were fighting for.
