Frases de Dmitri Medvedev
Dmitri Medvedev
Data de nascimento: 14. Setembro 1965
Dmitri Anatolievitch Medvedev, em russo: Дми́трий Анато́льевич Медве́дев ? dmʲitrʲij.ɐnɐˈtolʲjəvʲiʧ.mʲɪˈdvʲedʲəf , é um jurista, professor e político russo, atual primeiro-ministro do seu país. Foi também presidente da Rússia entre 2008 e 2012, vencendo as eleições com 71,25% dos votos. Seu mandato teve início em 7 de maio de 2008. Amplamente reconhecido como mais liberal que seu predecessor, Vladimir Putin.
A principal realização de Medvedev como presidente foi o programa de modernização de longo prazo, visando a diversificação da sociedade e economia russas, assegurando que esta última não ficasse atreladas apenas ao óleo e ao gás.
Durante o mandato de Medvedev, a Rússia saiu vitoriosa da Guerra na Ossétia do Sul em 2008 contra a Geórgia e recuperou-se da recessão do final dos anos 2000. Reconhecendo a corrupção como um dos grandes problemas da Rússia, Medvedev iniciou uma campanha anti-corrupção e uma reforma substancial na aplicação da lei. Na política externa, entre seus principais feitos se incluem a assinatura do novo Plano START, que reduziu os arsenais nucleares e tentou melhorar as relações entre Rússia e Estados Unidos, que foram seriamente danificadas durante a gestão de Putin, e pioraram em decorrência do conflito contra a Geórgia.
O segundo objetivo do plano, entretanto, se daria por fracassado, e a posterior assinatura de um terceiro projeto foi anulada. Medvedev também aumentou a cooperação da Rússia com os demais países do BRICS, Brasil, Índia, China e África do Sul, assim como a admissão russa na Organização Mundial do Comércio, em 2011.

„Germany is our second biggest trade partner after China, but some time ago it was first. China is developing rapidly and has already become the world's largest economy in terms of purchasing power parity. At any rate, as you know, on 8 October China was recognised as such, but naturally the US economy is much bigger overall for the time being.“

„Corruption is a global problem. But it is more widespread in rapidly developing countries. It is a growth problem. There are many corruption-related problems in Russia too. So, regarding stress tests, I think that such tests should be applied to all companies.“

„So, once again, these are not political deals but an informed choice. At the same time, we need to take note of everything that happens around Russia. If some of our projects with Europe, America or others are put on ice (I'm not talking about the reasons behind this), we logically move these projects to other destinations.“

„We have nothing against the dollar, and I don't think China has anything against it either. But we believe that a modern currency system should be better balanced, so that when one of the currencies is sagging, this should be compensated by other global reserve currencies.“

„I tell you the first and last time. Together with a nuclear suitcase the president has a folder, which is top secret and devoted entirely to the report by the Russian secret service which handles the control of extraterrestrials in our country. After the term, the two folders and a small nuclear suitcase are transferred to the new president. How many of them are among us I cannot say because panic might begin.“

„Instead of the primitive raw material economy, we will create a smart economy generating unique knowledge, new useful things and technologies. Instead of the archaic society, in which the leaders think and make decisions for everyone, we will become a country of intelligent, free and responsible people.“

Dmitry Medvedev in a speech (November 2009)
„It is impossible to restore what is gone, obviously. I was born in the Soviet Union at about the same time as you (although we lived under different systems, we still listened to the same music, as we found out) but the world has changed since then, and the Soviet Union no longer exists. We have the Russian Federation, which is based on a Constitution adopted by our people. This Constitution proclaims the same set of values that is accepted by the absolute majority of humankind, notably, the supremacy of human rights, democracy, the protection of private property, market-based development and so on and so forth. I won't list all of them because these are universal values. So nobody wants to go back. There is no returning to the past.“
