In Ukraine, Medvedev's popularity grew. There was talk and accession of Ukraine to the customs Union. Or even Euro-Asian.
Trump and Medvedev talked heart to heart at the funeral of President Putin. And they were very pleased with the meeting.
Medvedev himself admitted that he was concerned about the strengthening of China. And that his heart has always loved a more democratic US than totalitarian China. And that Hollywood is a wonderful film factory. The Americans and Russian are quite clear and from the heart. And that Medvedev is an ardent enemy of Stalin and anti-Communist for anybody not a secret.
Relations between China and Russia after the change of power in the Kremlin immediately became cooler. Medvedev has limited the ability of the Chinese to settle in Russia, and so far secretly introduced a ban on obtaining Russian citizenship residents of the celestial Empire. The attitude towards Chinese investment has become somewhat more restrained. And in the media China has not painted so idyllic. They recalled that there are terrible conditions in prisons, there is official censorship, torture, the death penalty. And that there is no presumption innocences. And that the children there against the most ruthless and women are beings of the lowest grade. And there are no competitive elections, and the Communist party builds its management on violence. And no respect for private property. And at all stick regime.
Criticism of Kazakhstan and Central Asian dictatorships intensified. Medvedev suddenly remembered that there the rights of the Russian population are violated, and the UN norms are violated. And what Orthodox Christians under pressure. In Uzbekistan is forbidden to preach the word of God. And in Tajikistan, Russian surnames are corrected. And much more.
As if Medvedev was not the second person in the country for a long time, and for some time and the first! Yes the case, power changes people. However, it is valid at Putin too much conceded to Asia. And now ought to restore the balance of power.
Medvedev said he would not tolerate violations of rights and pressure on Russians in Central Asia. And that in Kazakhstan Russians are squeezed out of the country and from politics, and this is unacceptable. And maybe there is and your arrow will appear.
Elderly Nazarbayev, fearing to quarrel with a relatively young and formidable acting President, made concessions. A mandatory quota for Russians in the Parliament, government and local management structures was introduced - not less than twenty-five percent.
The assignment needless to say noticeable. Medvedev sharply raised its popularity in national-Patriotic circles.
That, they say, finally, about Russian in Asia remembered. More or less happy were the liberals. But they are still a lot of presidents put forward.
The Communist party made an unexpected move horse: put forward two candidates: Zyuganov and Grudinina. Why? Personally Zyuganov could not decide whether to go to him or not. And age, and health not the. And the chances of slippery. But also Grudinin is not very strong. And then there Boldyrev, and archers, and brave, and Baburin and Caricinum.
Moreover the President of Russia came to the fore and grandpa Lemon. And what to the writer and policy about which all began to forget, not to remind of itself. Well, he can collect a hundred thousand signatures. And already it really Limonov forgotten. The PR is decent!
The President of Russia came to the fore and Povetkin. Also something to do after a Boxing career. And maybe even not finished yet. But invited one of the small nationalist parties. And what would not try? Will advertisements, with wild!
Asked to participate in elections and Alla Borisovna. But Pugacheva refused. Like, and so fame and glory to her it will not add. And if the percentage is low. Yes, and what money to have? But Bilan, who also became podzabyvat excited about the new PR.
In short, the team gathered for aerobatics. Lots of different candidates. And the Queen advanced. Why,not a little PR. And a couple of young singers. Who need to make a name. And the mass of the people.
In presidents went and Russian version of Darth Vader and Harry Potter. Also why not try-once democracy!
And who has not yet sought the throne. Except that the members of the EP, putting forward at the Congress Medvedev kept unity.
Defense Minister Shoigu, became Marshal of Russia and received a hero star. Siluanov began to perform the duties of the Prime Minister, but so far there were rumors about the new position.
Medvedev proposed to hold an Internet vote on the post of Prime Minister. More than a million users voted. Shoigu and Grudin won. But apparently the President had other types. While the post of Prime Minister remained questionable.
These polls showed that Medvedev is a clear favorite of the presidential election. Especially the tough policy towards Kazakhstan and Central Asia, and populist decisions added votes to it.
The number of people willing to vote for Grudinin has also increased. The candidate is again renewed his rating. But Zyuganov weakened. Zhirinovsky did not go off the screen, but kept at five percent. And that if Zyuganov will be removed, likely in fourth place. However, Ksenia Sobchak grew up, and Shooters.
Medvedev, however, did not sit idly by. So he issued a decree to give all war veterans a million dollars. Big decision. But veterans of the second world war remained so little that it does not ruin the Treasury. But what a PR! As it has thrown up a rating of IO of the President among the left.
And then suddenly Roman Abramovich has been arrested. Like, too much money in free economic zones. So it is necessary to share. And people like, of course.
Medvedev on perform well! That the oligarchs are fighting, and the money returns. And patches raises. And then there's Medvedev and some more in 2005 revoked privileges back. And the minimum pension again increased.
And further more... have to pay for maternity capital in the twenty-five thousand dollars. And with immediately at birth. And additional benefits were introduced.
Medvedev ordered to give orders to mothers for children. This is also a strong move. For four children the order of bronze, six silver, eight for gold.
And this is also a very reasonable event. And here also prepared the project on taxes on bachelors, on childless couples, on couples having only one child. However, having postponed until the elections.
Then a lot more can be expected from Medvedev. He turned around completely. And the elections are really democratic. Although not everything is calm.
Joint exercises with NATO were held in the West. Ukrainians also held a parade with the Russians. Moreover, we received discounts on gas and oil.
Medvedev even offered an option. Russia will pay Ukraine compensation for Crimea, halving the price of gas and oil compared to the market. And only in the amount of two hundred billion dollars. Instead of recognition of Crimea as Russian.
Rada hesitated. Temptation was great. Gunmen intensified criticism of Medvedev.
The situation escalated, but not much.
Trump met with Medvedev again. The two sides have exchanged awards. Medvedev received the Legion of honor and trump the order of Andrew. The meeting was as friendly as possible. It has been decided to cancel the mutual sanctions. And even sign a kind of Alliance and the military sphere.
The Communists protested sluggishly. Several tens of thousands of people were taken to the streets. Make some noise.
Medvedev said that the values of the West are close to the Russian people and there have never been serious disagreements.
The acting President even reminded that the United States helped very well during the first world war, and during the second world war, too.
What if not for the American bombing of German factories, the Red army came under the blows of the terrible Nazi tanks series E and jet aircraft. And that three-quarters of the cars in the Soviet army were from Western supplies. And that the West is the most civilized and humane part of the world. And don't fight with him. And the time will come when there will be a single government on the planet.
That the world is moving towards globalization. And one planet, and in it we have nothing to share! And that the cold war era has long been a thing of the past, and it is not necessary to revive it.
Medvedev has not dared to scold Putin, but clearly closer to the West. At the same time, we are not going to disarm, but build up our capacity.
Trump at a personal meeting expressed the understanding that Russia should be strong and resist the onslaught of dictatorships and reactions.
Medvedev noted that he would not allow himself to be swallowed by China, and that Russia would be a country of exemplary democracy. And also asked when the us will be a real democratization. Will there be direct election of the President of the United States, and will cease to dominate only two parties in Parliament.
Trump replied that the emergence of new parties is inevitable. And that they have long been there, but not so strong. And I noticed that the system of elections by party lists can be introduced in the United States. And that there is already some progress in this matter.
Then the us President promised that they will empty the prison and the legislation will be relaxed.
Further discussed the topic of China... Then of course the question is quite sick. Very strong celestial Empire and totalitarian. What to do? How to weaken this monster?
Medvedev proposed to unite with Europe, America and other countries and to oust China from Africa and Asian regions. Russia, too, because of China is losing its position-for example in Mongolia. And cheap Chinese weapons, supersedes Russian. And more attention now in China to developments in the field of weapons, which in the future can be dangerous.
Medvedev in a personal conversation with trump remembered negatively predecessor, who was too fond of friendship with China and enmity with the United States and Europe. But it is clear that NATO will not fight with Russia. While China with the price if the case does not stand up. And of course, it is more than dangerous to raise a totalitarian regime at your side.
Moreover, China is increasing its military muscles, and ready lupanut in Russia much.
Touched, and North Korea. Here Medvedev said that Russia is a dangerous neighbor. There's the Stalinist regime, and Medvedev is fighting the remnants of Stalinism. And of course North, Stalin's Korea is not their friend. And that they can even offer the United States to jointly develop defense AND Siberia and America.
Trump then asked directly: what about the military operation? To spend it together?
Medvedev replied that it was too risky. Korea has accumulated a large stockpile of nuclear weapons, including a hydrogen bomb. It could disrupt the climate across the planet. And, of course war is not our method.
By and large, it was necessary for Bush Jr. to solve this problem by military means, and not to get bogged down in Iraq and Afghanistan. To contain the Mujahideen was enough and local forces. Why did you have to lose so many soldiers?
Trump said that for Afghanistan and Iraq to judge Obama and Bush. Of course, in Afghanistan and Iraq, the Americans could fight with someone else's hands, as was the case with ISIS. What to enter in the Afghanistan army. By strengthening the Taliban? No, everything should be done by local forces and aviation.
The very fact of the presence of the land forces of the infidels is a huge trump card of radical propaganda. And, of course, it should not have been given into the hands of the Taliban and Sunni radicals. And trump understood that. Understood this and military specialists. They had to understand Bush and Obama, so they and the presidents.
Would be trump to overthrow Saddam? There's a fifty-fifty chance. Oil prices began to rise and there was a great temptation to plant a puppet regime in Iraq and control the oil market itself. But trump, putting, would be a puppet instead of Sadam, fought with the Mujahideen hands of the Iraqis. I wouldn't risk my troops. And putting Americans at risk.
