President Obama hasn't been elected by the American people in order to be pleasant to Russia.

Russia is an ancient country with historical, profound traditions and a very powerful moral foundation. And this foundation is a love for the Motherland and patriotism. Patriotism in the best sense of that word. Incidentally, I think that to a certain extent, to a significant extent, this is also attributable to the American people.

Our intention is to develop music, theatre and exhibition activities on the Far Eastern regions.

Russia is probably one of the first countries to have been confronted with this problem of terrorism. It took some time before the international community realised the danger terrorism poses.

We have created stability, which is a necessary condition for development. But I can't call this system authoritarian.

One can feel calm and at ease. Just leave kids alone, please.

It is well known that homosexuality is a criminal offense in the United States, in four US states. If it is good or bad, we know the decision of the Constitutional Court, but this problem has not been dealt with yet, it is still being addressed by the legislation of the United States. This is not the case in Russia.
