The quiet arrival of Fan Dan's disease. Putin has also gradually increased his dismay to the opposition.

In light of the recent social reaction to skinhead attacks on foreign students in Russia, Putin signed a new bill that defines extremists and increases the penalties for them.

However, in the bill, those who openly criticize the state are also classified as extremists, drawing criticism from many civil society groups and political parties. However, in the votes of the Russian State Duma and the Federation Council, the bill was successfully passed because the presidential party had a majority.

Proponents of the bill say it will be an effective deterrent to the actions of extremists in Russia. But opponents argue that the real purpose of the bill is to curb the opposition and control free speech in the media.

The well-known Russian jurist bluntly pointed out that the purpose of amending the new law is not only to control extremists, but also to silence opponents of the government, which is a very bad example. It can be inferred from this that the next law may also provide for criminal liability for critics of the Duma.

planning, organizing and enforcing changes to the constitutional system of Russia in accordance with the provisions of this Act; Acts that undermine the integrity of the state and threaten national security; Acts of illegally organizing armed forces and provoking racial, religious, or social disputes; As well as public criticism of the national government and its brains, criticism of the social system, organization and dissemination of extremist materials, propaganda and organization of demonstrations of a fascist nature, etc., are considered extremist acts. The prosecution will prosecute these acts.

The new bill was considered by the State Duma and the Federation Council, but members of the Federation Council also expressed dissatisfaction with the bill because it restricts citizens' freedom of speech and elections.

In response to the different reactions of public opinion, the representative of the President of Russia to the Federation Council noted that, despite the deficiencies in the bill, the harm caused by state inaction is much greater than that caused by the imperfection of the bill. If no bill is enacted. There will be more foreign students being attacked by extremists. This will lead to more serious consequences. However, the presidential representative did not explain why the skinheads who attacked foreign students and the opposition that criticized the state were both classified as extremists

Child.

The opposition in Russia expressed outrage at the passage of the new bill, which they saw as very similar to the Stalinist law on the identification of "enemies of the state," when many people, including dissidents, were involved in Stalin's proposal. Identified by the Soviet government as an "enemy of the state" and subjected to brutal repression.

The most troubling thing in the eyes of the Russian opposition is that the new law completely prohibits criticism of the government. The coalition of the Russian right believes that this is a dangerous step for Russia to take the first step.

Analysts have also pointed out that the swift passage of this bill in the upper and lower houses has its own special political purpose. Since Russia will usher in parliamentary elections this year and presidential elections next year, the implementation of the new law will completely deprive other political forces of public opinion.

It is foreseeable that under the protection of this bill, future general elections will be held in a "stable and peaceful" atmosphere.

Many civil society organizations, including the Russian Journalists' Association, have suggested that the Federation Council block the passage of this bill, and at the same time, leaders of Western countries have also called on Putin not to sign this bill, but Putin does not seem to care about domestic and foreign pressure, and is a bit bent on going his own way.

When Fan Wuxian stayed in Moscow for the third day, Russian President Vladimir Putin, who was in a simple car, quietly came and went to have a secret meeting with Fan Wuxian to discuss the cooperation in the recent past.

Yan Lin watched Fan Wuxi sit there talking with Putin, and suddenly had an indescribable strange feeling.

Probably because of Putin's appearance, more Chinese began to care about the political situation in Russia.

Many people feel unbelievable that this former KGB, who can drive dozens of types of fighter jets, will actually become the president of Russia, but if you calmly sit down and analyze, there is a lot of KGB-style conspiracy on Putin's road to the president.

Even before the presidential election, many newspapers argued that Putin's approval ratings were artificially inflated, saying that expert speech advisers and image design experts had created the image of a tough leader who was light and energetic, humble and decisive.

For Russians, Putin is portrayed as the most humane person by image designers.

Some even believe that political strategists know Putin. Even Putin's visit to St. Petersburg to attend the funeral of his old boss to express sympathy and concern, and the security measures taken against Chechen terrorists in newspapers and on television who clamored for the death of Acting President Vladimir Putin were described by magazines as shrewd propaganda activities. And according to the conclusion of the newspaper "Tomorrow Daily", Vladimir Putin is a political myth shaped by public relations and image design experts.

But it is clear that there is no need to refute these speculations, because they are not supported by facts and evidence, and Putin's achievements as prime minister and acting president are not the product of some new political manoeuvre, and that his high approval rating is the result of the recognition of his policies and state activities, and the reward for his independent decision-making and courage to take full responsibility.

Those political decisions are not made by image designers, and Putin's true emotions cannot be artistically processed by political scheming. Putin's campaign headquarters once announced not without regret that in the course of the election campaign. Eighty percent of the decisions are made by the acting president independently, and only the remaining 20 percent are proposed by his campaign headquarters, and even then Putin has not accepted them all.

Neither under Brezhnev nor under Gorbachev, Putin was not a heroic, heroic dissident, and at the same time did not become a brave dissident of the Yeltsin era. More than once, he described himself as a soldier and an official, whether as prime minister or later as acting federal president, and he treated Kremlin-made decisions as if they were orders

。

However, after December 31, 1999, the situation forced Putin to personally decide to draw up and issue the order. He did not shirk this responsibility and proved himself to be a capable leader at the highest level. Then he became a public politician.

Putin not only deals with documents, but also solves various practical problems in a down-to-earth manner, thereby proving himself to be a doer who works hard to fulfill his duties.

It should be said that Putin's activities were not pre-planned according to some clear goal. In the second half of 1999, he had to deal with a difficult situation that suddenly arose, and even under these circumstances, his performance was remarkable.

All politicians care about their attractiveness and popularity, therefore. It is impossible for them not to take into account the help and advice of experts. Under democratic institutions, this is part of their job, but it is far from the main thing. At the end of the day, Putin is not the first person in Yeltsin's team to rise through the ranks, but "why haven't Yeltsin's other candidates benefited from political maneuvering and succeeded?"

It is not for nothing that people often compare theater with politics, talking about the stage, the mask, the characters and the prompters of the lines, the director, the puppet, etc. In fact, in many ways, this political drama is conceived in a way that closely resembles the more modern concept of political conspiracy.

Out of wonder and resentment at Putin's achievements, the opposition has tried to portray President Putin as a simple, superficial and terrible actor. For Putin himself, he is just an actor who suddenly appears on the political stage, knowing neither his role, nor the script he is going to perform, and he does not even understand which one he should choose to listen to in front of the many prompters.

On the contrary, there are many who appreciate Putin's work, arguing that he has been able to succeed in the political drama precisely by following the director's highest task. Although he is only a newcomer to the stage, he acted very well and performed tepidly. Just right, and not to show yourself off on stage, as Yeltsin did.

More people believe that Putin hardly needs to be a director, that he is a director himself, that he is even the author of the script and a talented actor with a new and unusual style, that he can combine the urgency of a ballet dancer with the pace of a master of the art of combat, and that he can easily find a slightly different face and a different point of view from himself.

And through close observation, Luo Lin appeared. In Putin's case, one can show the kind of mythical hero who has the will. The magic of a wish come true. Explicitly agreed to do something that a concubine would not be able to do, was silent for a while, forced himself to wait a little longer, and when the task was completed, he reappeared.

At this time, people did not see that he was proud at all, as if nothing had happened, and he went on to do something new.

It should be said that in Luo Lin's observation. Putin is one of the few people who has both unobtrusive and irreplaceable qualities, a surprising sense of humor, a master of accurate and unexpected comparisons, a hero of his true colors, and a hero who rejects flashiness, refuses to pretend and has no waste.

Fan Wuxian talked with Putin for about two hours, and the two of them expressed their views on many issues. At the same time, many promises were made to each other. A number of framework agreements on economic and trade cooperation have also been signed.

It was not until about three o'clock in the afternoon that President Putin took his leave.

For the sake of keeping a low profile, Fan Wuxian just sent out the door, while Luo Lin was in the middle of the entourage. I also saw the majesty of the Russian presidential guard, which seemed to be in the equipment they carried with them. There are also equipment such as jammers for radio and satellite communications, and as for the light and heavy weapons, they are not yet visible, so I believe they must have been well hidden.

"Come back, it's cold outside," Fan Wuxian saw that Xiao Lin was still looking into the distance, so he smiled and patted her on the shoulder and said.

In fact, this is also quite understandable, in the propaganda of public opinion. Putin's image is tall and full-styled. Compared with the leaders who are basically older in China, the KGB-born president who can fly airplanes is obviously more likely to attract everyone's attention.

But as far as Fan Wuxi, who is a deep-seated collaborator, is concerned, he naturally does not think that there is anything surprising about this, in fact, Putin is indeed an excellent political drama actor, but in some ways, he is still not good enough.

After returning to the house, Xiao Lin mentioned some descriptions of Putin, such as an actor or something.

Fan Wuxian smiled when he heard this, "It's not unreasonable to say this, in fact, it is not Putin alone who acts as an actor, on the big stage of life, everyone is an actor, but some people act well and succeed, and some people fail to act." In the end, it failed. ”

"In theatrical performances, it is not uncommon to see that the theater hall is already full of audiences, but one of the main actors suddenly falls ill and is unable to perform on stage. In order not to interrupt the performance, the director and his assistants had to urgently disguise the little-known pre-actor and let him play the main role. However, to the surprise of the director and the audience. The prep actor played a very difficult role even better than the ill lead actor, so. He quickly became a famous actor. That's probably the case with Putin. Fan Wuxian gave an example.

In politics, there is always drama, and with the advent of television, this factor is in fact growing as a component of political achievement. When tens of millions of people watch meetings in the Kremlin, meetings in the White House, or visits to factories, hospitals, and kindergartens on their television screens at the same time, the president and those around him are not without thinking about how they should make every action and every dialogue meaningful.

It is generally believed that it was because of his brilliant swing in front of the television camera that John F. Kennedy won the 1960 US presidential election.

In the sixties, Brezhnev was recognized as an attractive Peugeot beauty man, however. Growing illness and aging altered his dashing and handsome appearance, and the more often he appeared on the TV screen, the more damage actually took on his reputation.

Ronald Reagan is the opposite, he is good at using television and is more powerful than anyone else in expressing his ideology. Although he was already seventy years old when he came to power. But he knows how to be a dynamic character. Its presence does not only occupy the television screens of the country. And it has also won the appreciation of almost all the world's TV viewers.

You know, Ronald Reagan was once a talented professional film actor, and he participated in the filming of 54 feature films in his thirty-year career as an actor.

But if you just think of Reagan as an actor. And not the words of politicians, then it is completely wrong.

Drama is only a small part of overt political activity, which takes place mainly outside the stage and there are no journalists and photographers on site, a job that requires politicians to possess some other abilities in addition to those necessary for a professional actor.

"Putin doesn't often perform in public, especially in public. He was not a public politician in the past, but now he has suddenly entered the highest political arena in Russia, and he prefers not to play a special role, but to preserve the way of behavior and work to which he has become accustomed. "Therefore, he is very simple and easy to understand, and his main character is frank and natural, which allows him to avoid having to play and imitate other people." And only observers who are inclined to play power games with the people do not believe this. ”

"Oh" Qi Lin nodded, feeling that what Fan Wuxian said was also very reasonable.
