main political event of the day was the performance in Russia of Vladimir Putin’s annual address to the Federal Assembly. Its contents, according to tradition, was not disclosed in advance. This time the message was, if I may say so, double anniversary. First, it is the tenth Vladimir Putin, and in general in modern Russian history – the twentieth. And timed to the Day when the Basic Law was adopted by the country.
St. George Hall of the Kremlincrowded. Here deputies, senators, members of the government and all regional governors. Like last year, the Epistle is read at the Constitution Day. Country’s basic law was adopted by popular vote 20 years ago, December 12, 1993.
“I congratulate you on this important for our state and society date. Constitution joined two basic priority – the highest status of rights, freedoms and a strong state – emphasizing their mutual obligation – to respect and protect each other. am convinced that the constitutional framework must be stable, and above all, it concerns the second chapter of the Constitution, which defines the rights and freedoms of man and citizen. These provisions of the Basic Law are immutable – said Preizdent. – In this life does not stand still, and the constitutional process can not be regarded as finally completed, dead. Point adjustments other chapters of the Basic Law, coming from law enforcement, from life itself, of course, possible, and sometimes – needed “.
recently Parliament approved amendments to the Constitution presidential merger Supreme and Supreme Arbitration Courts. According to Putin, it will help to overcome the legal uncertainty. For now, the courts of one and the same case sometimes endure completely different solutions.
One of the most controversial topics, thrilling millions of citizens – ethnic relations.
“Failures in the educational and cultural policies, which often leads to a distorted understanding of the true causes of ethnic tensions, – the President said. – It is provoked not by representatives of some people, and people who are deprived of culture, respect for traditions, both his own and alien. This kind of immoral International, which includes and unbelted, insolent natives of some southern regions of Russia, and corrupt law enforcement officials that “shield” ethnic mafia, and so-called “Russian nationalists”, various separatists ready any domestic tragedy to make excuse for vandalism and bloody buzy. Together we must rise to the challenge, must protect ethnic peace, and hence the unity of our society, the unity and integrity of the Russian state “.
Vladimir Putin believes that the issues of international relations require a frank conversation in society.
accumulated a lot of problems in another area – local government, which is what municipal officials must solve everyday problems of people to a simple question is not asked for help from the governor or even the president.
“Extent of liability and municipal resources, unfortunately, and you well know, is not balanced. It is often confusion with the authority. They not only blurred, but constantly thrown from one level of government to another: from the area of ??the region, with settlements in the area and back. Local governments and then shake and corruption scandals. District level effectively emasculated. His powers in education, health, social welfare transferred to the regions, – said Putin. – In addition, local authorities should be arranged so – and this is the closest power to the people – to any citizen, figuratively speaking, could reach her hand. Let’s look at these issues again on all sides to finally bring the situation in line with common sense, with the requirement of time . considers important task clarification of general principles of organization of local self-government, the development of strong, independent, financially sustainable local authorities. And this work we need to start and basically legislative support in the next, in 2014 “.
way, th 2014 – the year of the 150th anniversary of the famous Zemstvo reform. That development zemstvoes so then called local authorities, at the time allowed Russia to make a breakthrough and begin a major transformation. For example, the Stolypin agrarian reform. Putin is sure – and now a strong local government can become a powerful resource for updating human capacity.
“We are all interested in, through the mechanisms of elections to the power came prepared, motivated, professional people who are ready to perform their duties responsibly. Because we will continue to work on the development of political competition, improve political institutions create conditions for their openness and efficiency, – said the head of state. – The recent elections showed that in political life became less officialdom, over-organization, in advance of projected results. consider it important that seriously declared themselves many new games. won seats in municipal and regional authorities, they laid a good basis for future participation in the federal election campaign and I am sure will make a worthy competition to the political old-timers “.
In his Epistle to Parliament Vladimir Putin encourages society to engage actively in the legislative process. Bottom-up initiatives should be part of public policy.
“All bills, key government decisions, strategic plans must pass a civil so-called” zero “reading with the participation of NGOs and other civil society institutions. As at the federal and at the regional executive authorities must create public councils. course In many authorities already have them, but not everywhere. And most importantly, they do not have to be formal and decorative appendage structure, and is expected to serve as experts and sometimes constructive opponents departments, be active participants in anti-corruption system “- the President said.
President proposes the Public Chamber, the Human Rights Council and other human rights organizations involved in the preparation of the draft law “On public control.” At the same time Putin hopes that the activities of human rights organizations will not be politically biased.
International Politics. Sounds important thesis – Russia aspires to leadership, but is not going to impose their will on anyone whatsoever.
“We are always proud of their country. But we do not claim the status of any superpower, understood as a claim on the global or regional hegemony, not out to anyone’s interests, do not impose his protection, no one trying to learn to live – the head of state. – But we will strive to be leaders, defending international law, ensuring respect for national sovereignty, independence and identity of peoples. And it is absolutely objective and understandable for a country like Russia, with its great history and culture, with centuries of experience not the so-called tolerance, sexless and barren, namely the joint, the organic life of different peoples within a single unified state “.
Putin reminds recently thanks to Russian initiatives managed to avoid a new war in the Middle East – external intervention in the Syrian conflict.
As recent events in neighboring Ukraine, the President assured – local politicians will be able to negotiate and resolve all outstanding problems. And Russia if Ukraine is such a desire, ready to continue work on the approximation of Kiev with the Customs Union. However, this international organization in any case will be expanded. Customs Union preparing to enter Kyrgyzstan and Armenia.
President also calls the challenges that Russia may face in the future. According to Putin, the U.S. missile defense system in name only defensive, but in fact, it is part of the strategic offensive potential.
“Iran’s nuclear program in its time served, perhaps, the main argument for the deployment of missile defense systems (so, incidentally, say). Now what happens? Iranian nuclear problem goes away, and the missile defense system remains. And not only remains, and gets its further development “, – Putin said.
Deploying missile defense systems and other precision weapons can lead to upset the strategic balance of forces in the world.
“We understand this very well. And we know in this context that we need to do. Nobody should have any illusions about the possibility to achieve military superiority over Russia. We will never allow it. Russia would respond to these challenges: political and and technology. All the necessary potential we have to do is, – Putin said. – Our military doctrine and advanced weapons, are received and will be supplied to the troops, let us certainly ensure the safety of the Russian state. We still have much to do to the development of modern high-precision weapons systems. At the same time right now for a number of qualitative parameters of modern strategic nuclear deterrent force, we have successfully and plans to enter the new frontier, and some of our partners we still have to catch up “.
on rearmament and Navy released a huge amount – 23 trillion rubles. So in the next decade the defense industry complex will be fully loaded with orders.
state takes care of those who protect it. Putin said that for the first time resolved the issue with the military housing.
Like last year, when Putin spoke of “spiritual scrapie”, part of the Epistle is devoted to traditional values. In many countries now revised morality and ethics, cultural differences are erased.
“From society now require not only the common recognition of the right of everyone to freedom of conscience, political views and privacy, but also the obligatory recognition of equivalence, as it may seem strange, good and evil, in the sense of opposing concepts, – Putin said. – And we know that in a world more and more people supporting our position on the defense of traditional values, which for millennia were spiritual, moral basis of civilization, every nation: the traditional family values, true human life, including religious life, the life not only of material but also spiritual values ??of humanity and diversity of the world “.
“Of course, this is a conservative position. But in the words of Nikolai Berdyaev, the meaning of conservatism is not that it prevents the movement forward and upward, and that it interferes with movement back and down to the chaotic darkness, return to the primitive state ‘, – said the President.
