MOSCOW, July 20. /TASS/. Direct democracy in Russia should become more transparent, the nation’s President Vladimir Putin said on Wednesday.
"I am convinced that in order to be strong, independent and competitive, we need to fine-tune and make more just and transparent the mechanisms of citizens’ participation in the life of the country, including the mechanisms of government by the people, direct democracy, people’s role in solving problems vital for society and its citizens," the Russian leader said at the forum ‘Strong Ideas for a New Time’ organized by the Agency for Strategic Initiatives.
"Sovereignty is freedom of national development and consequently of each individual separately, the state’s technological, cultural, intellectual and educational self-sufficiency, this is what it means," Putin pointed out. https://tass.com/politics/1482567 |
