“For the past five years, we have been successful in setting up the network of budget-funded entities and have introduced a basic degree of order. The legislative framework has been greatly modernised; in particular, a law on independent institutions and amendments to the Fiscal Code have been passed. Nonetheless, today this process of modernising the network of budget-funded entities is still far from completion, while the pace of change does not correspond to those objectives that we set ourselves.”
"I think that today your newspaper performs a vital role, not just in circulating information about sport, but also in educating young people, and society as a whole, about tolerance, and about relations between different ethnic and national groups within our society. Because sport is an absolutely international activity."
“It is not easy for everyone right now during the crisis, and sport clubs are even worse off than industrial companies. That is why I have instructed my colleagues to lobby Siberian-based companies for assistance to your club. Business is going well for these companies despite the present-day difficulties.”
