“Support from Russian citizens has always helped us, and I’m confident that the government’s future line-up will rely on the people. We must never forget about the needs of ordinary people. We must always remember how government-level decisions influence the lives of all ordinary Russian citizens.”
"Yes, Europeans depend on our supplies, but we, too, depend on the purchasers of our gas. This interdependence guarantees stability".
"We want to live in peace and accord. We want normal trade and work in every field, be it international security, disarmament, the fight against terrorism, against drugs, the Iranian nuclear problem-and the North Korean, which at the moment is getting somewhat more acute. We are willing to do all of this, but we want that work to be an honest, open partnership, and not self-seeking".
"A total of 3.2 billion roubles ($130.19 million, or €88.32 million) have been allocated to the Kamchatka and Primorye territories, and the Arkhangelsk and Murmansk regions to make up for higher fuel oil prices. Mr Kozak has already mentioned it here. This is one of the measures which should help these regions to get through the cold season without any accidents, or emergencies. A total of 1.2 billion roubles ($48.82 million, or €33.12 million) have been earmarked for the republics of Altai, Ingushetia, and Yakutia, as well as for the disaster relief efforts in the Stavropol territory. It is planned to allocate 250 million roubles ($10.17 million, or €6.9 million) to the Republic of Mari El to cover its expenses on the 7th All-Russia Rural Summer Sports Games".
"I would also like to stress a substantial growth of investment into the national economy. For the first time, we will spend more than a trillion roubles to this end. This will be 35% more than last year".

"I must say that in drafting the budget, the Government set itself the task of primarily funding education, health care, innovation development of the economy and infrastructure, and, of course, the security of our citizens".
"We have a young and promising team. To turn promise into reality, the sports organizers - the Ministry, and the National Olympic Committee - should do everything to create the conditions for the training of athletes who are capable of winning such stunning victories and making such achievements as we have seen now in Beijing".
"As you can see from the documents, the Defence Ministry has drafted amendments to the law on Commemorating the Victory of the Soviet People in the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945. I would like to say in this context that Victory Day has always been and will remain a truly national holiday. It is the day when we recall tragic and glorious pages of our history, honouring veterans, and when we teach a lesson of patriotism and public spirit to the younger generation".
"The long-term national development concept stipulates the following key tasks: increasing average life expectancy to 75 years, stopping negative population growth; reducing mortality rates".
