Vladimir Putin will stay online
It is said that Prime Minister Vladimir Putin will keep up the tradition of annual televised question-and-answer sessions.
AIF's commentary: Actually, Prime Minister Putin plans to reserve the right to hold presidential online sessions. Our source in the Kremlin said that, on the one hand, President Dmitry Medvedev has his own style of public speaking, a new topic of discussion. On the other hand, during online conferences, people ask many everyday questions that should be answered by the Government. According to our sources, Mr Putin planned to hold a televised question-and-answer session in late October, but it was postponed.
