Poverty and a lack of quality education, as well as substandard healthcare, are the main issues facing Russia as a nation, Dmitry Medvedev, the president of Russia from 2008-2012, has declared.
In an interview with RIA Novosti on Friday, Medvedev said that he agrees with President Vladimir Putin that the government must work to boost incomes across the country. “The problem of poverty, low salaries, is really a key issue, and is connected with health problems, crime to a certain extent, and a whole range of other concerns,” he stated. “That’s why the issue of incomes is key.”
The ex-leader, who is currently deputy chairman of the Security Council of Russia, emphasized that there is much else on the agenda to solve, including corruption and technological stagnation. “But if we’re talking about human problems, then I think incomes, and quality education and health care, are issue number one,” he went on.
