(AGENPARL) – KREMLIN mer 22 marzo 2023

President of Russia Vladimir Putin: Mr Vasilyev, as you know, I regularly meet
with leaders of the State Duma party factions; and, of course, it is impossible
not to meet with you as the leader of the main political party.

Head of the United Russia Party Faction in the State Duma Vladimir
Vasilyev: Thank
you.

Vladimir Putin: I know that United Russia is conducting large-scale work in the parliament and not only there. It is very actively involved in political life,
it formulates a multitude of initiatives on high-priority aspects of socioeconomic
development, protection of people’s rights, development of the social sector in general, and it certainly takes an absolutely patriotic stance on international
issues.

I would like to say that I am
grateful to the faction for its position. And, of course, I am happy to see you
and to exchange opinions on the current work and on short-term tasks that you are
formulating for the party.

Vladimir Vasilyev: Mr President, thank you for finding the time to meet with me despite
your busy schedule. This is very pleasant and important.

Indeed, the party faction has accomplished
everything that you have just mentioned. As the largest faction, we have to make essential decisions in line with the current situation, rather than the decisions we want to make or populist decisions (as you have said), and we are
quite successful here.

I am very grateful to our
colleagues; we have a good line-up, the Duma Speaker and leaders of other factions.
We maintain good relations, though we can argue at times, but mostly we have respectful
relations, and we have jointly and unanimously passed 20 basic framework laws.
They deal exactly with the issues that you have noted, and they focus on security,
development of the national economy and, most importantly, all this aims to guarantee the interests of the people.

If possible, I would now like to brief you on our current work.

To be
continued.
