WHAT DO PUTIN AND MYROSLAVA PETSA OF UKRAINE'S CHANNEL 5 HAVE IN COMMON?
More on the "fifth column":
PUTIN ON CRUISE CONTROL NOW
Putin on poetry:
Lermontov was in the opposition, but he was also a patriot.
Putin: Fine line between opposition and "fifth column"
Putin: My actions were aimed at consolidating society, not dividing it. Maybe I should be more careful in my public statement, but one cannot be too careful -- sometimes we have to call things what they are.
It's a fine line to define when the opposition ends and the 5th column starts.
Putin on controversial health reforms, which have sparked Moscow protests:
We should focus on high-tech solutions. There are 30 percent more beds in hospitals than needed. This is wasted land and electricity. We should allocate that money to the quality of our medical system instead.
I am focusing on my own opinions, not recent actions by Moscow government -- although I think those decisions were right-minded.
