 Russia President Dmitry Medvedev took part in the meeting of the International Discussion Club Valdai, which consists of leading political scientists in the world. Answering the questions of the audience, the president touched on issues of economic and political situation in Russia, and also shared his thoughts on the upcoming summit of the Greater Twenties in Pittsburgh.
Today, Finance Minister Alexei Kudrin said at a meeting of finance ministers of the CIS countries made very serious assumption regarding the economic crisis in Russia, which, according to him, stayed in the past. The minister stressed that to say this with absolute certainty it will be possible at the end of the third quarter of 2009. The measures taken have allowed Russia one of the first out of the crisis. We expect that this will be somewhat later than other countries, but our measures allowed in June have GDP growth of 0.4% by May and July to June - 0,5% , - said the minister. It is also worth noting that despite his claims concerning the forthcoming completion of the crisis in Russia, Kudrin still mention that the risks of second wave still exist.
Statement by the Minister of Finance was made first, but unfortunately did not have time to find a joyful response in the hearts of Russians, because very quickly it became clear that the president does not share such optimistic views of the Minister. Dmitry Medevedev convinced that talking about overcoming the crisis, which, incidentally, is celebrating these days his first birthday, early. Moreover, the president does not rule out a second wave of financial and economic difficulties that may arise in our country according to the prophecies of terry-conservatives whose presence in the government, according to Medvedev very useful, even if the expert community and from colleagues in the Cabinet they raise questions. According to the president, Russia's GDP will drop in 2009 to 8,5%. Russia's leaders underestimated the magnitude of the crisis - he said. We figured, the depth of the fall is much more serious: the GDP this year will drop by 8,5%, although we relied on a figure of 1-2%. Thus, members of Russia's leadership has not yet reached a consensus on how to further development of economic situation in Russia and what methods of control used.
Subject global financial crisis could not have been sounded in the statement of Dmitry Medvedev, but as mentioned above, a speech at today's meeting with political scientists was not only about this. Replying to questions, Medvedev largely commented on the contents of his article, Russia, forward!, Published on September 10.Once again, the president spoke about the need for an ambitious socio-economic reforms in the country. We must deal with changes in the pension system, health system, rather than mimic these changes. Imitations should not - said the president. Speaking about the future business of Russia, Dmitry Medvedev said that there is an urgent need to change the usual scheme of doing business in our country. We must try to change the business paradigm of business thinking. Trading in raw materials - the path to nowhere, because the next crisis, our economy would collapse even more, - said the head of state, calling to invest in non-commodity sectors of the economy.
Medvedev touched upon in his speech, and such important topics as the upcoming summit of the Big Twenties in Pittsburgh. President of Russia noted that it is very important to move from words to action: Everyone understands that if after 2-3 years a new crisis happens, we will be in a very difficult position, but nevertheless, the work is slow. I do not ascribe it to anyone personally, I'm just suggesting to all my colleagues, all States are included in twenty to think that this work go more quickly, - said Medvedev.
In addition to issues of international and domestic policy discussion community members asked the president and almost a personal question - about the plans for the presidential elections in 2012. This question is an unambiguous response. Dmitry Medvedev did not rule out that he would run for president again, but notes that the guess in the future he does not like, because it's easier.
By the end of the day could not refrain from loud statements and Prime Minister Vladimir Putin. In his very cautious and conservative forecasts, GDP growth in Russia in 2010 may exceed 1.6%.
