how on earth today the president was asked how he copes with stress, with the criticism that periodically comes to him from unfriendly countries, there was even a question, do you think, will the moment ever come when in some german a person will say to a village, after all, putin was right, but the president got the impression that, in general, they are very driven by the same rhetoric, there are people who understand russia’s position, in general, russia has many supporters all over the world, including adhere to those same values.

and do everything to achieve the set goals, not paying attention to any fluff , of course, it is necessary that this field of vision be nevertheless wide, we must understand everything, since january 1, russia has chaired the brix group and a colleague from tatarstan asked a question that is both practical character and global, he of course asked the question about the choice of capital.

rules prescribed in the fundamental documents, which include the charter of the united nations. concerning brihsa, but this vector is intensifying; it is russian-chinese relations that are one of the significant guarantors of stability in the world. we see what is happening around russia and around china, we see attempts by the west to switch to... to asia towards asia

, the activities of nato, the north atlantic bloc, what should it do in asia, no, they are dragging themselves to asia, china and i are not doing anything like that. colleagues, you asked what struck me, what was memorable at this event, i was personally very impressed by the speed of communication, it was ensured here from the point of view of wires, because it was clear that a live person could talk to the president live right away. dialogue , and of course, the speed of reaction of some officials was also amazing, for example, when you come from crimea to train in conditions that, of course , there can be no talk of any records, the gym has not been repaired for 40 years, less than an hour has passed, a message has already been received about that this gym will soon be renovated, colleagues, and a question from st. petersburg elizaveta, remember when vladimir putin asked, well it’s like artificial intelligence in the form of vladimir putin, that’s the connection with modernity. elizaveta khramtsova, yes, we will

give other events in the coming hours, was with us, talking about the topics that the president touched upon. well, we continue, and summing up the year with vladimir putin, it was a very interesting format, very interesting, many interesting statements, important accents made by the president. so, vladimir putin has focused his attention on new russian regions. the president received a message on this topic many questions. the head of state noted that previously the former kiev authorities did not pay due attention to these entities; russia is now involved in the regions; as vladimir putin noted, over 1 trillion rubles are allocated in the federal budget of our country annually for the integration and development of new regions. according to the president, the four constituent entities themselves have already paid about 170 billion in taxes to the budget, and this, the russian leader noted, indicates that they are economical.

putin commented on the tough measures of the international olympic committee, which the day before allowed only six athletes from russia to the olympics in paris in 2024. according to the president. everything that international officials do is a perversion of the principle of pierre de goubertin, oh sport and peace, sport was created to unite people, and officials got carried away with the business country, became dependent on sponsors, if they continue to act like this, well, he also noticed , that our athletes are known even without a flag, but if they could pursue the goal of cutting off athletes vying for medals, then the russians should go, those representing cska and other clubs are not worth it. the russian president emphasized, he also opposed the call to remove israeli athletes, sport is foreign policy, it is incorrect for us to point the finger at israeli athletes, there are problems there, but what does sport have to do with it? quoted bismarck, the russian president has more than once recalled the statements of the first chancellor of the german

empire, who, of course, is rightfully considered one of the greatest statesmen in the history of europe, speaking... about the role of teachers of patriotic education in society, the russian leader recalled the words of bismarck that quote: wars are won not by commanders, but absolutely, vladimir putin said, and recalled that bismarck worked in russia for several years. traditionally, some questions and complaints of russians are resolved directly during a direct line with the president; schoolchildren from the village of solnechnaya dolina in crimea sent vladimir putin a video message from the emergency gym of their school... the footage showed that repairs had not been carried out there for decades. actually, renovations in the gym, the children asked the president. vladimir putin promised to allocate, without waiting for this conversation, he already wrote in his telegram channel that the repairs will be done next year and noted that there is indeed

no money in the regional budget for repairs, and federal funds will help solve this problem. in addition, after the appeal, the russian investigative committee began an investigation in crimea. well, he literally crashed. what would he, vladimir putin, say to himself today, you are walking the right path, comrade, but don’t be so naive in relations with so-called western partners. this is such an interesting reflection, which contains the whole essence of the issues that concern so many today. and now i propose to return to gostiny dvor and continue talking about important statements by vladimir putin. anastasia efimova joins us. nastya, welcome again, yes, nastya , welcome, excuse me, gosh, i want to ask the international olympic committee about this , while this format was going on, the results of the year with vladimir putin, this message came: and the international olympic committee the committee decided to allow russians and belarusians to participate in the olympic games

in 2024, because athletes cannot be held responsible for the actions of the governments of their countries. the head of the organization, thomas bach, stated this, here is a quote. i really want to say it because it ’s really important: individual athletes cannot be responsible for the actions of the governments of their countries, this is only one of the 28 military conflicts that continue in the world, other athletes compete peacefully with each other, that’s it quote, what did the president say today about our athletes? well , of course, thomas bach, you can probably say , welcome to reality, because all the rhetoric could be the last...

the olympic movement was created for this purpose, to unite people, and not separate them, modern international officials, they are too carried away - by the business side sports movements, to go or not to go, you know, there is a point here, we must now carefully analyze what conditions the moka puts forward, if these artificial conditions are aimed at cutting off. our leaders, to show that russian sport is not developing or, on the contrary, it is dying, well then it is necessary for the ministry of sports, the national olympic committee of russia to analyze and make an informed decision. the results of the year, let me remind you, were created at

the intersection of two large presidential formats at once; questions had to come directly to the direct line regarding a special military operation. including regarding the social guarantees that svo participants receive, guarantees that are sometimes written down on paper, but are not always fulfilled in practice, and sometimes even on paper. contracts

by participants in combat operations within the framework of private military campaigns, no matter how private military companies are concluded with the state, this is the main problem, but all the people, i know these people firsthand, among my relatives, my close connections, children fought there in private military companies, i have... uh, among those people who surround me and work next to me, there are and were also close people there, some died, gave their lives for their homeland, fighting within the framework of this private military company, and their rights must be restored without any doubt.

connections, relations, including in the field of agriculture, from other countries , from us the economic development of belarus is excellent, they offer, i regret, i apologize in this regard, but there is a failure in the work of the government, many were present at today’s summing up of foreign journalists and..

region and in relation to bosnia and herzegovina and here we have our policy regarding this we will build the republic of srpska precisely on these principles. it was very interesting to observe how, as the results were being summed up, they were commented on by a variety of bloggers on social networks, almost everyone drew attention to the fact that the questions displayed here on the screen, well, de facto, no one moderated, they would...

then i know, and now i remembered about the bans in the field of the anti-alcohol campaign, we remember what this led to, it led to... to the use of surrogates, to an increase in this area that you are talking about now mentioned, which we are talking about now, we also need to act very carefully, of course, of course, i know the position of the church, and the church cannot have another position, because the church, it fights for the life of every person, it has its own

attitude towards abortion issues. the president’s answer to the question of what he would say to himself in 2020 can be considered a milestone ; by the way, it was in that year that the same combined format of a large direct line press conference was presented in moscow. i would say that you are on the right path, comrades.

the russian people, in this faith, are the key to success, revival, establishment and development of russia. i am sure that this statement will be quoted by most of the world’s media, but i would like to draw attention to another, from my point of view, no less significant, it was made in the format of an answer to the question of how you deal with stress. let me remind you that vladimir putin said that he... is driven forward by a sense of duty and confidence that he is right. i will quote: there will be strength if you believe in what you are doing, and i added, i ’m sure, yes, i also talked about how he chess plays about the need to constantly develop. anastasia efemova, thank you, anastasia efemova sums up the main results

with vladimir putin, while this was our live broadcast, the following data appeared. our colleague konstantin churikov followed the economic part of the president’s speech and is joining us. so, yes, konstantin, welcome. you said something important today on economic topics that you noted with experts, yes natalia georgiev, hello to our economy, and these numbers speak for themselves. by the end of this year, russia's gdp grew by 3.5%, thanks to which it was possible to win back last year's decline and become positive. domestic industry, according to preliminary data , grew by 3.6%, while in

the manufacturing sector the dynamics were twice as high, plus 7.5%. the president paid special attention to such an indicator as investment in fixed assets, the growth of investments was 10%, this indicates that russian industry has good prospects, which is especially positive, this is a 10% increase in investments into fixed capital, what does this mean, that is, today we have obvious growth in gdp in industry. what does plus 10% in the fixed capital investment mean? that sustainable development will be guaranteed in the medium term, money will be invested, production will expand, jobs will be created. a sensitive issue for many pensioners: commissions for paying for housing and communal services, the president decided immediately on the spot, he simply

canceled them, said that the decision had been made , pensioners would no longer pay the commission, as for macro. i note with satisfaction that the government of the russian federation manages to do this, despite a certain increase in defense spending. security, we fully fulfill all our obligations to citizens, in their entirety, we can say that this is not enough, i would like more,

somewhere under the law right now he says it will be fulfilled, one of the themes of the year’s results was the development of foreign trade, the head of state noted the growth of trade turnover with china at the end of this year is already + 30%. well in general new points of growth are emerging in the world. where are russian energy resources needed? new centers of economic growth are being created, the main consumer appears there , we send them there, where they buy oil, gas, coal, and god bless all these economies that consume our energy, and we are paid for it, we are thinking about further expansion and supplies to china. we are thinking about other countries as possible consumers. by the way, you say, japan doesn’t refuse and takes it, well , please, it takes it, for god’s sake, let it go further it does, we don't mind. at the very beginning

of the direct line, the president emphasized that the russian economy has a sufficient margin of safety to not only feel confident, but move forward. and this is facilitated by the high consolidation of russian society and the stability of the financial and economic system. the results of the year with vladimir putin is such a traditional format, where the head of state speaks on this topic, where they watch the president, they watched, here are the women's guard, girls in camouflage, they watched the live broadcast, there is clearly some kind of naval school, it’s nice that they watch the vgtrk channel, but the doctors, apparently, also followed the president.

what and how the president says , what he pays attention to, what topics i discuss with vladimir putin abroad, because there were foreign journalists, elizaveta khramtsova joins us, when vladimir putin answered the question of foreign journalists, we noticed that not a word was said was from their lips about ukraine, that topic that was once number one for them, that topic that they always tried to somehow give special meaning, today it turns out to be fading into the background, they are starting to notice it less, but this is hardly some kind of coincidence?

as for the possible extradition of these citizens to their homeland, well, you say, why

don’t they return to their homeland, why not? complained that relations between moscow and paris, including at the highest level, now look completely different than they did just recently.
