A signal for the elites: why did Putin meet with Medvedev

11
In May of this year, the newly elected President Vladimir Putin will have to appoint a new government that will have to fulfill the important tasks voiced by then-candidate Putin during the March Address to the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation. The problems facing the executive branch are complex and wide-ranging; they will require maximum competence and professionalism from the future cabinet for their implementation.





On April 10, incumbent Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev meets with the Russian president on the eve of the upcoming report on government activities before the State Duma over the past 6 years. The attention of the public to the meeting was caused by the intrigue about who will lead the future government. Most experts in the field policy consider that it will be Dmitry Anatolyevich again. Others think differently, for example, political analyst Andrei Makarkin:

I used to say clearly that Medvedev is the main candidate. Now I would say that he is one of the candidates


In turn, the political scientist Gallyamov is 90% convinced that in May Dmitry Medvedev will again head the cabinet:

Already a meeting with United Russia could be interpreted that the elites are confident in the future of the prime minister. Meeting with Putin is a Signal for Highly Doubtful


Everyone familiar with the issue believes that during the meeting with the head of the outgoing government, deputies will not “attack” him too much, and the speech will be somewhat “blurry”, uncomfortable topics, such as raising the retirement age, will not be addressed. The population of the country will gradually bring such innovations.

At the prime minister’s crossroads, Dmitry Anatolyevich will be indicative of recalling a number of his statements “cast in granite”. In 2008, at a meeting with entrepreneurs, he replied complaining to the Russian bureaucracy that “no need to whine.” In 2008, as a candidate for the presidency of the Russian Federation, Medvedev forever inscribed himself in history with the phrase that “freedom is better than non-freedom”. In 2011, answering the question why not a single minister left his post during the years of Medvedev's presidency, Dmitry Anatolyevich answered:

Government cannot be shaken like a pear


In 2016, the Prime Minister “pleased” the residents of Crimea that there was no money, but we had to hold on. In the same year, he advised Russian teachers to do business.

The figure of Dmitry Medvedev and his public statements cause a different attitude from the public. The Internet at one time responded with a counter offer to quit politics and go to work as a janitor. Nevertheless, the head of state, who has known Dmitry Anatolyevich for many years, knows best who is more comfortable with continuing to raise Russia from his knees.

    To finish the Russian economy to complete stagnation and collapse, guided by the c.u. Western institutions, set out to crush Russia, no one can better Medvedev.

        To collapse to the end, before the economic collapse. He is set for this. I see no other explanation for the position of this expert in Roman law.

          Gentlemen, do you seriously think that Medvedev makes decisions? Then think about who and what will decide after the onset of economic collapse.

            They are completely confused, but who really makes the decisions? What exactly do you mean, explain.

              The decisions in Russia are really made by those who were and still benefit from the restoration of capitalism in 1991. And MDA and other defective managers are just their appointees.

        Sergey, tell me, have the government already been formed and Medvedev ALREADY appointed prime minister? Did I miss something? If Medvedev respects Putin with an annual report, as well as an ANNUAL report to the federal assembly, is this a signal to the elites? Thanks you made fun of my cat. hi

          And how many times has Medvedev ALREADY been the prime minister?
          And let's get back to this conversation AFTER its reappointment. Then we'll see who will laugh. Personally, I will not.

            Excuse me, do I laugh? belay But guessing on the annual report or on television, according to VO, I will not and do not want to vang on coffee grounds. Yes Perhaps EVERYTHING, and Medvedev, and Nabiulin, and Kudrin, and some little devil from a snuffbox, we will see after Putin’s inauguration. I understand that journalism is your bread, but vanging is not a thankful task. Sincerely.

    ... oh Lord! And why do we need the institution of premiership in Russia! Although I am very grateful to the DNM for the position in the Georgian direction in the 08th ... Putin wouldn’t dare; I remember how he once threw himself at the leaders of South Ossetia and Abkhazia who came to the Russian Federation for at least some help: that, they say, you are setting us up ... Fuuu, disgusting ...
