MOSCOW, March 15 – RIA Novosti. The Russian presidential election will be held on Sunday, with eight people vying for the highest government post: political old-timers and newcomers, liberals and communists, as well as the current head of state.

Voting will take place in the country from 8 am to 8 pm local time at 97 thousand polling stations. Since February 17, candidates have had the opportunity to campaign and participate in debates, and on March 17 there will be a day of silence. The President of Russia is elected for a six-year term.

Below is a summary of the candidates' programs and statements, as on the ballot, they are presented in alphabetical order.

Baburin's Russian choice

Russian presidential candidate Sergei Baburin is a veteran of modern politics, at one time he was a deputy of the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR, and then was elected to the State Duma three times and was twice vice-speaker. This is the first time a politician is participating directly in a presidential campaign.

Baburin’s main ideological slogan comes down to the phrase “Russian choice”, that is, the basis of politics, economics, social sphere, education, culture, science, according to Baburin, should be Russian traditions, morality, spirituality - without this the politician sees no future for revival of Russia. He advocates building a social state, for the return of funds from offshore companies to Russia, for active investments in human capital: in education, pre-school education, medicine, culture and science, as well as support for domestic producers and investments in innovative developments.

At the same time, Baburin considers it important to fight for the preservation and expansion of the “Russian world.” In foreign policy, he proceeds from the principles of a bipolar world, where Russia will be one of the poles. The politician also advocates support and recognition of Transnistria, the DPR, the LPR and other islands of the “Russian world.”

Non-party candidate from the Communist Party of the Russian Federation

The director of the Lenin state farm, Pavel Grudinin, is nominated by the Communist Party of the Russian Federation for the presidential elections in Russia in 2018. This decision, made at the XVII pre-election congress of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, was unexpected for many, including the candidate himself, as he later admitted to journalists. The candidate's election headquarters was personally headed by the leader of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation Gennady Zyuganov; the election program “20 steps of Pavel Grudinin” was developed by the Communist Party. However, Grudinin has repeatedly emphasized his non-partisanship, while noting that he fully supports the ideology of the communists.

In the program text “20 steps of Pavel Grudinin,” the candidate stated the need to reduce prices for medicines and tariffs for all types of transport, eliminate the value added tax, abolish the transport tax and the Plato system. In the social sphere, Grudinin, if he wins, promised to establish funding standards for science, education and healthcare in the amount of at least 7% of GDP for each industry. In addition, the candidate of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation stated the need to maintain the current retirement age and return indexation of pensions to working pensioners. Another striking proposal in the politician’s program was the promise of Russia’s refusal to participate in the World Trade Organization (WTO).

At the height of the election race, the CEC announced that Grudinin had 13 accounts in Switzerland at the time of his nomination, which contained about $1 million, including about 174 ounces of gold. At the same time, the Central Election Commission noted that the government agency is obliged to inform voters about the facts identified, therefore this data is posted on information posters about the candidates that will be at each polling station. Grudinin himself called this information about the “party gold” a “stuffing” and noted that he would not be surprised if they discovered the Amber Room or the library of Ivan the Terrible in his possession.

Grudinin also refused to participate in television debates. At the end of February, Grudinin left the Channel One studio live on air, calling what was happening a “booth.” Previously, the Communist Party of the Russian Federation made a proposal to change the format of the debates, and also repeatedly sent complaints to the Central Election Commission about the coverage of Grudinin’s election campaign by the media. Thus, Zyuganov reported that the Communist Party sent about 70 “substantiated complaints and statements” to the Central Election Commission.

Some of Grudinin’s most striking statements during the election race were proposals to introduce the death penalty for pedophiles and maniacs in Russia, to abolish the Unified State Examination in schools, and to create a National Anti-Corruption Bureau in the country, which would be supra-party in nature and have the broadest powers, including before inspections by the President of the Russian Federation.

A big discussion in society was caused by the statement of the candidate from the Communist Party of the Russian Federation that Joseph Stalin is the greatest leader of the country over the last 100 years. In addition, during one of the press conferences, Grudinin compared the Red Army soldiers who fought against the Nazi invaders with “rams under the leadership of a lion,” referring to Stalin’s lion. In connection with this statement, a petition was published on the website change.org on behalf of the Council of Veterans of the North-Western Administrative District of Moscow demanding that Grudinin apologize for such a comparison. The leader of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation Gennady Zyuganov, commenting on this situation, said that he did not see anything offensive in the fact that Grudinin compared USSR soldiers to sheep, since there is such a “folk proverb.”

Election campaigning is an important stage of the election campaign. The number of votes a candidate receives in an election largely depends on how efficiently the election was organized.

Record holder Zhirinovsky

LDPR presidential candidate Vladimir Zhirinovsky participated in six presidential elections. During the current campaign, he mentioned topics affecting the very foundations of statehood of the modern Russian Federation. He spoke about the need for significant changes in the Russian political system for the next presidential elections, which are due to take place in 2024. According to Zhirinovsky, the presidential post will become insignificant or will be abolished, the main powers will be concentrated in the hands of the unelected head of the State Council, and all parties will either be gathered into two approximately equal in strength or abolished. The head of the State Council can also head the CIS interparliamentary assembly, Zhirinovsky believes, such a structure can be strengthened politically by the creation of a two-party system.

However, not all the initiatives of the leader of the LDPR related to the internal agenda were of a sharply political nature. Among other things, he proposed, for example, that the state should help single people create families. At the same time, Zhirinovsky considers it necessary to exempt citizens with a salary below 20 thousand rubles from taxes, and to introduce an additional tax on excess income. The presidential candidate said that in the future engineering should become the main profession in the country, and proposed putting its representatives in charge of all regions.

Traditionally, one of the most important topics for the leader of the Liberal Democrats is foreign policy. Zhirinovsky believes that it is best to speak with the West in the language of force. In another statement, the head of the LDPR even suggested that Russia’s growing confrontation with the West plays into his hands as a presidential candidate. However, while the West, Zhirinovsky says, is helping him, the regional authorities, in his own words, are putting pressure on LDPR activists. If he wins the elections, as the candidate stated, he is first of all ready to replace the heads of the Kemerovo, Lipetsk and Belgorod regions, calling these regions “the worst version of democracy.”

At the debate, the leader of the LDPR attracted attention not so much with his political statements; for example, the interest of the audience was aroused by the skirmish that Russian presidential candidates Ksenia Sobchak and Vladimir Zhirinovsky staged on air on the Rossiya 1 channel. During the event on February 28, Zhirinovsky interfered with the speech of another Russian presidential candidate, Sergei Baburin. Sobchak called on him to calm down, the LDPR leader made a number of unflattering statements about her, and she poured a glass of water on her opponent.

Self-nominated Putin

Presidential candidate and current head of state Vladimir Putin announced his candidacy in December last year; he has not yet formally presented his election program; analysts are considering a number of his speeches that took place at the height of the campaign as programmatic ones. As Presidential Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov previously stated, assessments of work and prospects for the future “one way or another will coincide” in the Russian leader’s message to the Federal Assembly, which was announced on March 1.

Putin then highlighted the country's development priorities: improving the living conditions of Russians, increasing the size of pensions and their indexation, targeted social assistance to those in need, the development of preschool educational institutions and other areas of social policy. Putin called ensuring growth in real incomes of citizens and reducing the poverty level by at least half over six years as one of the key tasks for the coming decade. The President even set the country the task of entering the club of “80 plus” countries, where life expectancy exceeds 80 years, by the end of the next decade. In addition, Putin instructed to allocate at least 3.4 trillion rubles for demographic development measures and the protection of motherhood and childhood over the next six years, which is 40% more than for the previous similar period 2012-2017.

The President also assessed the work of the government. In the economic part of his address to the Federal Assembly, Putin praised the government for the achieved macroeconomic stability, but the new cabinet will have to solve a more ambitious task - GDP should grow at a rate no lower than the world’s and its volume per capita should increase by 1.5 times by the middle of the next decade.

A significant part of Putin's speech was devoted to the presentation of the latest weapons, which have either already arrived or will become available to the Russian defense department. According to the president, the strategic nuclear forces included 80 new intercontinental ballistic missiles, 102 ballistic missile submarines and three Borei strategic missile submarines. In addition, as the president said, Russia has begun developing a new nuclear-powered cruise missile that is capable of bypassing missile defense systems. And all this “in response to the unilateral withdrawal of the United States from the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty and the practical deployment of this system both on the territory of the United States and beyond its national borders,” the president emphasized.

A major campaign event that Putin participated in was his meeting with proxies at the end of January. Then he called on everyone to respect their competitors in the elections, but also to promote their agenda, communicate more closely with voters, and discuss unresolved problems with them. The current president also touched upon the topic of education, anonymity and control systems on the Internet, the economy, and the exclusion of Russian athletes from the Olympic Games in South Korea, calling not to turn world sports into “the backyard of a dirty political kitchen.” Putin also spoke about relations with the United States, noting that Russia is not going to “get into trouble” and aggravate the situation, but will patiently build relations with America to the extent that they are ready for this.

The work is carried out not only “in the public field.” As the Kremlin confirmed, Putin may decide to sign new “May decrees.” The final decision, as Peskov assured, rests with Putin, and is currently being discussed. According to the presidential press secretary, the head of state will choose the specific “form of legal registration” of the main tasks.

Putin did not participate in other election events, including debates with other candidates. During the campaign, he did not take leave and continued to work as President of the Russian Federation, this position is also indicated on the ballot.

The Russian presidential elections will take place on March 18, 2018. Compliance with election legislation will be monitored by government agencies, observers, candidates and media representatives.

Make way for the young

Presidential candidate Ksenia Sobchak is the youngest contender for the highest post and the only female candidate; she has just reached the age of passive suffrage - according to the law, a citizen of the Russian Federation over 35 years of age can be president. Having nominated himself from the Civil Initiative party, the politician positions himself as a candidate “against everyone.”

In his election platform “123 Difficult Steps,” Sobchak identifies the country’s most important problem as the irremovability of power, the corruption it generates and, as a consequence, the unfair distribution of public goods, the slowdown in technical and social progress, international isolation and the economic crisis. In this regard, the politician proposes to limit the tenure of any elected official at all levels of executive power in one position to two terms established by law during his life.

Sobchak emphasizes that Russia is a European country, and on the world stage it must become a European secular democratic federal state with a market economy that protects the rights and freedoms of citizens. In her opinion, the state should not control, but regulate the economy, and the economy itself should be demilitarized. Sobchak also believes that Russia should become a parliamentary republic.

Another new communist

The program of presidential candidate, chairman of the communist party "Communists of Russia" Maxim Suraikin, according to him, provides for the creation of a socialist state in Russia using the best experience of the USSR. In particular, the politician said that if he wins, he will officially announce a five-year transition period from capitalism to socialism, during which the communist president and the Soviet government will gradually implement the program “Stalin’s Ten Blows on Capitalism and American Imperialism.” Suraikin calls this approach innovative.

According to Suraikin, in the first 100 days of his possible presidency, he will initiate the discussion and then the adoption of a draft of a new Soviet Constitution based on the Brezhnev Constitution of 1977.

Clear position of the business representative

Nominated for the presidency of Russia, Chairman of the Growth Party Boris Titov considers himself the only candidate with a clear, non-contradictory and realistic program for saving Russia from forever falling behind the main countries of the world in terms of development.

According to Titov, it is his election program, based on the “Growth Strategy”, that is that very powerful breakthrough. The politician believes that the welfare of the broad masses is the main reason for the existence of society. “A working person should not be poor!” - one of the main slogans of his campaign.

Since June 2017, Titov has held the position of Commissioner under the President of the Russian Federation for the protection of the rights of entrepreneurs.

Liberal old-timer

One of the founders of the Yabloko party, Grigory Yavlinsky, is taking part in the Russian presidential elections for the third time. Traditionally, a politician’s election program is based on criticism of the current government’s course. During the campaign, he repeatedly noted that his program offers its own unique image of the future.

Yavlinsky believes that the essence of all state policy in the next 30 years should be only one thing - the creation of a powerful economy in Russia. In particular, speaking about depressed regions of the country, where the average salary is 14-16 thousand rubles, the politician proposes to apply a basic income system.

The politician pays a lot of attention to infrastructure in his program, proposing in this area his program for gasification of the country, as well as the free transfer of land plots to citizens for the construction of their own houses. The state should build roads and communications to these houses at its own expense, Yavlinsky believes.

Yeah 0, are you specifically “stupid”, not only “holey”!?
On 108th? It’s you who came to Stepanych with a “attack”, thereby “punishing” you, he could “get under the article” (which is not clear in what was written)... But Stepanych is a Reasonable Man, to bastard with you and the youngster... - i.e., you don't give a fuck... and that's true.
((you were the first to “throw in a presentation” - “It’s hard to challenge me to a duel”)) - so the choice seems to be mine. But I let the “girls” go ahead, although I understand that it’s “bad” to communicate with “leaky” and “blue-blooded...” ugh. Such an “offended” .. - what is it like in spring? Don’t “ring your horns Musya” and sit “straight” and drink milk. Come to Nizhny, it’s even interesting - did you want to please me with this or what? (100% youngster) I’m going to Moscow, I’ll write to the post office, if you don’t “get together” - let’s “talk”. Only I’m sure - you’re like Ursulka, you give me “left” addresses (either a car wash, or a fitness center), do you work for the same non-profit organization? After all, the “stuffiness” is flogging you from the good news about Russia - right, “bug”?
-
I am not writing further for the “zero”... In any case, either a youngster or a troll from the outskirts, a lot of them have gotten divorced recently, before the elections. They yell, “everything is lost and we will survive,” but they don’t see any changes for the better. I also noticed; Putin is “hated” by the Pindos - the “livers and all-goers” immediately begin to echo them, and other, “unreasonable and narrow-minded” (I put it mildly) Russians begin to “echo” them in unison!
Let me explain about “zero” - several of my comments and publications against the enemies of Russia caused a “excitement” among this “muska”. It wrote to me - ((Your cowardice and your liberal principles. Don’t confuse the Russian people with yourself. You are NOT WORTHY TO EVEN STUTTER ABOUT THE RUSSIAN PEOPLE!)) - an attempt to “turn everything around”, to provoke me to “aggression” and some actions. There are too many big words - “Russian, Russian people” (in almost every comment); If “it” had at least some relation to Russia and the Russian people, then it would not “boast” about it at every step. I am Russian, I know this, and I don’t need to prove it to anyone, and therefore I don’t “shout” about it, and I have nothing against other peoples of Russia. All of us (i.e., our ancestors) together defended the USSR from the Aryan-fascists-Nazis (by the way, it’s not for nothing that there is an information war against Russia). And now, when there is a war against American terrorism in Syria, their plan is to weaken Russia from the inside, they cannot break us, so they “threw” legends about fascists/Aryans/Iranians/Indians (and they themselves do not know who they are - some kind of “blue-blooded gods,” as this “zero” wrote to himself just now), all sorts of Miroshnichenko(v) with an outskirts accent on “Skirt” are broadcasting their “nonsense” about Russia, also “Urengoy boys” with Okrainsky roots and with “liver” ( with liberals) apologize to the Germans, etc. And “zero/leaky”, as in “secret LGBT-rast” (and most likely), “runs around and screams loudly” - the urine of “LGBT-rast”, I’m normal, I’m not from “ their teams” (all according to Freud). In addition, he reacts furiously to comments and disagreement with his “point of view”, don’t you think that this is too much a “feminine trait of the Ursulocs” (I ask women not to be offended by this).

There are 6 days left before the presidential elections of the Russian Federation. In this article I would like to briefly highlight the programs of each candidate who will apply for this post.

According to the weekly, voters' preferences have already been formed, and the overall picture may not change by the elections. According to political analysts, the leader of the race is known, and most candidates do not yet receive even 7% of the vote. Today, the struggle for second place between the candidate from the Communist Party of the Russian Federation Pavel Grudinin and the leader of the LDPR Vladimir Zhirinovsky remains acute.

The stability of Vladimir Zhirinovsky against the backdrop of the contradictory figure of Grudinin gives him a chance to compete for 2nd place, political scientists say. Alexander Kynev argues this way: “The better the campaigns of new candidates go, the more they draw attention from the LDPR leader to themselves. But the worse their campaigns are, the more protest votes Zhirinovsky will get.”

Expert at the Center for Political Technologies Alexander Ivakhnik draws attention to the fact that the LDPR candidate has his own nuclear electorate, since “Zhirinovsky has been a constant in Russian politics since 1989.”

Sergei Baburin's election program

“Our strategic goal is to build a harmonious and prosperous society of social justice in Russia, combining the best features of the organization of public and state life of the pre-Soviet, Soviet and modern stages of national history. To achieve this goal it is necessary:

Transition to a fundamentally new model of socio-economic development, ensuring economic progress, the well-being of the people and the independence of the country;

Modernization of the domestic political system, reliance on traditional forms of Russian and Soviet democracy with modern standards of democratic procedures;

Spiritual and moral cleansing of society as an indispensable condition for the consolidation of the people, their mobilization to solve the most important domestic and foreign policy problems facing modern Russia.

Pavel Grudinin's election program

I am confident that relying on the team of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, the left and national-patriotic forces of Russia, we can and must win the presidential elections. Having solved this problem, relying on the support of the people and the Supreme State Council headed by G.A. Zyuganov, we will once again make our Fatherland a strong and powerful power, overcome poverty, and ensure a decent life for citizens.

The program was published on the website of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation. The program consists of 20 steps. I have already read the program. First of all, the program is aimed at domestic problem areas. The image of Russia that the candidate presented is a country with a bias towards socialism following the example of China, with a progressive tax system, with free education and medicine, with control over banks and with an emphasis on the development of the provinces. The text is presented below, in some places I have made comments.

Grigory Yavlinsky's election program

Doctor of Economics, practical leader of a number of targeted government economic programs, has an excellent basic education. Student of the famous Russian economist Leonid Abalkin. Since 2009, we have been persistently and purposefully trying to bring into reality the all-Russian project “Land - Houses - Roads”, aimed at overcoming the financial crisis and the full-fledged high-quality development of social infrastructure.

In my program “The Road to the Future” I intend to tell you about what is vitally important to do in Russia in the coming years. But first, I want to highlight several priority tasks, the solution of which must be initiated and begun to be implemented in the first 100 days of the presidency. Without progress on these five issues, it is impossible to truly solve any problem in Russia.

Ksenia Sobchak's election program

The most important problem of our country today is the irremovability of power, the corruption it generates and, as a consequence, the unfair distribution of public goods, the slowdown in technical and social progress, international isolation, and the economic crisis.

Such irremovability led to the virtual abolition of the separation of powers and the creation of an ineffective version of the corporate state. That is why the goal of a democratic politician should not be power itself, its powers and capabilities, but the reduction of the powers of the president and the entire executive branch, the limitation of all instruments of dictatorship and arbitrariness.

Such a formulation of the issue is impossible without constant interaction and cooperation of all democratic forces, despite the difference in their ideological attitudes and despite the personal ambitions of their leaders. Registered and unregistered parties, public organizations, including non-political ones, leaders of local self-government - they all should become part of a broad public dialogue, the purpose of which is to formulate a vision of a renewed state structure in Russia, to offer a real alternative to the conservative-isolationist strategy of today's authorities.

Boris Titov's election program

Boris Titov's election program includes provisions for a new, progressive economic policy that abandons the primacy of the raw materials sector and encourages initiative in the private sector. The practical activities of a politician allow him to effectively establish contacts between private enterprise and government structures. Here is an excerpt from the politician's program.

Election program of Maxim Suraikin

The “Communists of Russia” adopted a program called “Ten Stalinist blows to capitalism”, with which they will go to the upcoming State Duma elections in September. The corresponding document was approved at the pre-election, extraordinary V congress of the party. So, let’s look at Maxim Suraikin’s election program.

Election program of Vladimir Zhirinovsky

1. Give the Russian people the status of state-forming people!

Fix this provision in the Constitution of the Russian Federation and reflect it in all textbooks on national history.
2. Reunite the Russians!

Russians are the most numerous divided people. To reunite it, an ideology is needed for Russia to return peacefully the territories it lost due to the Belovezhskaya Conspiracy, to which the Russian people have a historical and moral right.

3. Return communalism to Russians

The core idea of ​​building a future Russia should be community - a mutually beneficial union of free people of the same culture and one language, serving the greatness of the State and the prosperity of society.
4. Fight for the Russian language

It is necessary to return the Russian language to the role of a means of interethnic communication, to ensure that the Russian language is studied throughout the country fully - without cuts or exceptions, and to spread Russian language culture in other countries...

VTsIOM named the leaders of the anti-rating before the presidential elections in the Russian Federation

Thus, the leader of public censure and distrust was candidate Ksenia Sobchak, who received 82% of the votes among those who “under no circumstances are going to vote for her.” At the same time, the general director of VTsIOM noted that this state of affairs is very interesting, because previously the head of the LDPR, Vladimir Zhirinovsky, was the permanent leader of the anti-rating. But today, people’s dislike for politics fluctuates at the level of Yabloko leader Grigory Yavlinsky.

Now Zhirinovsky has dropped to second place in the anti-rating with figures of 36% according to VTsIOM. In third place on the unenviable list is Grigory Yavlinsky, who scored 33%. In third place was the businessman nominated for election by the Communist Party of the Russian Federation Pavel Grudinin, with 24% of respondents having a negative attitude towards him. It should be noted that Grudinin’s anti-rating increased by 4% in two months.

20 steps by Pavel Grudinin. The Russian presidential candidate addresses everyone

I am confident that relying on the team of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, the left and national-patriotic forces of Russia, we can and must win the presidential elections. Having solved this problem, relying on the support of the people and the Supreme State Council headed by G.A. Zyuganov, we will once again make our Fatherland a strong and powerful power, overcome poverty, and ensure a decent life for citizens.

To achieve this, the following main measures will be implemented.

1. Change of economic strategy.

The priority will be the well-being of the broad masses, and not a handful of oligarchs, the interests of the common man, and not the greed of “fat cats.” This requires a sharp turn from oligarchic capitalism to a welfare state. We will put the wealth of Russia, its natural, industrial and financial resources, at the service of the people. We will carry out the nationalization of strategically important and systemically important industries, the electric power industry, railways, communications systems, and leading banks. The state will regain its monopoly on the production and wholesale sale of ethyl alcohol. This will give impetus to development and bring the treasury trillions of rubles annually; will allow us to create a development budget instead of a budget of impoverishment and degradation.

2. Restoration of Russia's economic sovereignty.

The government has several trillion rubles in its coffers. But these colossal funds have been transferred to the management of foreign financial organizations. We will invest those trillions of rubles that are stored in US banks and debt obligations into investments in production, science and education. The new government will rid the Russian economy of total dollar dependence. Will create a financial system in the interests of the state and citizens of the country. We will limit the access of foreign speculative capital to the Russian market. We will refuse to participate in the WTO, because during the 4 years of our stay in this economic punishment cell we received more than a trillion rubles in direct losses and 5 trillion in indirect losses.

3. Credit resources - for economic recovery.

For this purpose, we will reduce the bank interest rate. Let's stop the wild withdrawal of capital abroad. We will concentrate all available funds for investment in domestic production and people. Opportunities will open up for large-scale injections into the economy, to support small and medium-sized businesses, national and collective enterprises. Their strangulation in the interests of large network companies with foreign owners will stop. The monetary system will ensure the provision of long-term cheap credit.

4. New industrialization, modernization of the economy and its introduction to innovation.

We have to rely on science and new technologies. Engage in the active development of industries that provide technological progress: microelectronics, biotechnology, robotics and machine tool building. We will increase the share of the manufacturing industry from the current 15-20% to 70-80%, as in the leading countries of the world.
5. Ensuring food security in Russia, overcoming the situation when a significant part of food is imported from abroad.

The program for sustainable rural development will give it a new life, revive large-scale agricultural production and social infrastructure in rural areas. We will allocate at least 10 percent of budget expenditures for these purposes. We will return GOST standards and introduce criminal liability for falsification of food products.

6. Our historical task is to ensure the revival of “provincial” Russia.

We will equalize the capabilities of regional budgets. We will carry out gasification of the country. We guarantee support for small cities, towns and rural settlements. We will ensure the return of schools, hospitals and other social infrastructure to them. We will provide free gas, electricity, water and sewerage to private homes in small towns and villages for citizens.

7. Control over prices for basic products and essential goods, and housing and communal services tariffs.

We will limit the appetites of natural monopolies and stop the speculative rise in prices for vital goods and services. We will reduce prices for medicines and tariffs for all types of transport. Fees for major repairs will be abolished. Housing and communal services tariffs should not exceed 10 percent of family income.

8. Taxes are in the interests of justice and development.

Income taxes will increase for the rich and be eliminated for the poor. The tax system will stimulate investment and innovation activities of enterprises. The value added tax, which is strangling our industry, will be eliminated. We will abolish the transport tax and the Platon system.

9. Restoring labor guarantees and an 8-hour working day, providing people with work and a decent salary.

The minimum wage will be 25,000-30,000 rubles. A working person will earn a decent living, have a decent rest and restore his strength. We will bring back job guarantees for young people. Graduates of state universities will receive a guaranteed first job. Large-scale retraining and advanced training programs will be launched.

10. The destruction of the social sphere will be stopped.

We guarantee free and high-quality secondary and higher education and medical care. We will bring back the annual free medical examination. We will establish standards for financing science, education and healthcare - at least 7% of GDP for each industry. The state will cover all costs of treating seriously ill people, especially children. Physical culture and sports will become the property of the people, the most important means of strengthening the health of the nation.

11. Motherhood and childhood will receive every possible support.

We will restore the preschool education system and guarantee a place for the child in kindergarten and in the extended day group at school. The development of mass children's sports, free clubs and creative studios will become a reality. We will equate the monthly child benefit to the child's subsistence level. The payment of monthly benefits will increase from one and a half to three years. The state will subsidize the production of children's goods.

12. Citizens - decent pensions.

We will immediately pass a law on “children of war.” Let's keep the current retirement age. We will return the indexation of pensions to working pensioners. Let's cancel the reduction factor of 0.54 for military pensioners. We guarantee an average old-age pension of at least 50% of the average salary.

13. We will protect the spiritual health of the nation.

Let's revive our national culture. We will provide comprehensive support to museums, theaters, and libraries.

14. We guarantee mass construction of high-quality and affordable housing.

We will introduce the provision of apartments or houses for young families and the elimination of dilapidated and dilapidated housing. We will expand the mass construction of housing at cost and provide it to families with children in installments, without usurious interest. Mortgage rates will be reduced to 3-4%. Large and young families will receive an interest-free targeted loan for a period of 30 years. The “densification” development will be finished.

15. Curb the greed of money lenders.

We will provide debt amnesty for victims of “microfinance organizations.” Let's support "currency mortgage holders". Criminal liability will be introduced for being drawn into enslaving transactions, a ban on “collection” activities and the assignment of debt obligations of citizens.

16. Ensure the protection of nature.

We will introduce a ban on both privatization and long-term lease of forest and water lands. The practice of converting forests and parks into land for construction will be stopped.

17. Guarantee the defense capability and security of the country, the high scientific and technical level of the defense industry.

The combat readiness of the Armed Forces, the prestige of military service and law enforcement agencies will significantly increase.

18. A fair trial will be on the side of the law, the citizen and society, and not the oligarchy.

We will guarantee the real independence of the court and investigative bodies from the executive authorities, ensure the election of judges, and extend the competence of jury trials to cases of “extremism”, under Article 282 of the “Russian”, and corruption crimes of senior officials. Innocently convicted patriots of the Fatherland will be released and rehabilitated. Similarly, ordinary “swamp” residents - in contrast to provocateurs, false witnesses and organizers of illegal actions.

19. Restoration of the system of democracy and popular representation.

We will return to the people the right to referendums on the most important issues. Parliament will not be an obedient stamper of laws handed down from above, but an assembly of people's representatives. His competence will be expanded. The President will become controlled and accountable to the people and parliament. The procedure for his impeachment will be simplified. No one will have the right to serve as president for more than two terms of 4 years in a lifetime. A Supreme State Council will be established, without whose approval not a single fundamentally important decision of the President of the country can be made. Elections at all levels will become truly equal and free, with strict suppression of any violations and fraud during the tabulation of results.

20. Improving the quality of public administration.

We will raise the president's responsibility for forming the cabinet of ministers, and the government's responsibility for its actions. The composition of the government will be approved in the State Duma. Candidates for all ministerial positions will be publicly justified by the President. The Central Bank will operate as a controlled and accountable body of government, motivated by industrial development. The Accounts Chamber will become the highest and truly independent audit body. Suppressing corruption not in words, but in deeds will have both an economic, moral and political effect.

Sincerely,
Pavel Grudinin.
