| Moscow, May 26. "The annual State of the Nation Address
of the President of Russia was interesting."
This statement was made by State Duma deputy and member of the YABLOKO
party Sergei Popov in an interview
with a Rosbalt correspondent. Popov also noted that he had listened to
the words of the President in fear. According to Popov, the situation
in Russia today is such that the exact opposite of all the President’s
statements in his state of the nation address tend to be implemented in
real life.
"I hope that the provisions of this address will come true, as
we all would like affordable housing, the rouble to become a convertible
currency and our armed forces to become powerful," said Popov. He
also noted that the main danger was also hidden here: the road to hell
is paved with good intentions. The main issue troubling me as deputy of
the State Duma today is whether the President will have enough will to
make the Government and the United Russia party follow the path of reaching
the goals of the state of the nation address.
