Putin and Jing Yu-◆ I am used to learning to divide the necessary time and do what I want. Judo is a voluntary thing in my life. It is not only a sport, but also seems to be a philosophy. It taught me to respect my opponent. Learning English-it's a bit like an intellectual sport for me. I also like movies. Books are of course important, but there are more important things in your life-family and friends. As for faith, I prefer not to discuss it openly at any time. All life is composed of contradictions, and where there is no contradiction, there will be desolation. In a sense, people need to clearly embody a quality-this is tolerance. In my opinion, tolerance is often the decisive thing. People should be free ... I will do what I like. I think there are no people without weaknesses, and every new generation will be better. The more you do, the more people will come to the conclusion that there are still many things to do. I have some very close friends. My current friends are basically from middle school or college. I never pretend. I hope the citizens regard me as a hired worker. Please, you'd better not write me a brochure or make a bust. Although I often pay attention, I can't always smile happily. Sometimes I feel decadent. People should first follow their own conscience instead of others' opinions. Presidential Quotations ◇ Give me twenty years and give you a miraculous Russia. Our descendants will be proud of a new chapter in the great Russian story, which will be written by us together. I clearly know that many Russian residents live in extreme hardship and poverty. I keep this feeling in mind. This is my best adviser when deciding on economic policy. I am not the savior, but an ordinary citizen of Russia. I feel the same as any Russian citizen. I have a dream that one day Russians can say that I am proud to live in Russia. Even if the Kremlin is sold, a new generation of submarines should be built in time, because it is related to the future of Russia. Anger without strength is meaningless! When answering a question from a western reporter about whether the Russian government will negotiate with illegal Chechen armed forces, Putin asked indignantly: "Why don't you talk to bin Laden? Why not invite him to Brussels or the White House to negotiate, ask him what he wants, and then give him what he wants and let him leave quietly? " Putin said: "You think you can't make a deal with animals. Why negotiate with the child killer? No one has the right to preach to us, let us negotiate with those who kill children! " At a meeting with foreign journalists, a French journalist linked Chechnya's counter-terrorism with human rights issues and accused Russia of "abusing violence". Putin said humorously: "If you want to be an Islamic extremist, I will invite you to Moscow for circumcision. We have the best experts to solve the problem for you! " ◇ "We can no longer ignore the lives of the elderly, and we can no longer watch the poor children cry indifferently!" After 10 years of chaos, collapse, poverty, humiliation and other nightmares, Putin said the simplest but most shocking words to ordinary Russians. In a word, the background of Gorbachev and Yeltsin's defeat reflects Putin's cleverness. ◇ In the early morning of March 15, after Putin was elected president, a reporter asked, have you ever thought about what to do after leaving office for another four years? Putin replied: "I haven't started my work in the next four years, and you have already let me retire!" ◇ In June 2003, 165438+ 10, when I met with the leaders of the former Soviet Union, I urged them to do a good job: "Don't chew your nose every year! "The easiest way to prove" Iron Fist "is to cut off the enemy's head with sabre. To be honest, his big farm doesn't excite me at all. He must have been worried before. He doesn't know what it's like to invite a former Secret Service official to his home, but fortunately, George W. Bush's father used to work in this industry and was the head of the CIA. From this perspective, we are still a "home" and feel good. At the sight of these criminals, you want to strangle them yourself-of course, this is just impulsive language. ◇ On June 65438+1October 65438+1October 0 1 day, 2000, regarding the deployment of the anti-missile defense system by the United States: "The motive of the United States this time is no different from any other motive: set fire to your house and boil eggs!" ◇ On June 3, 2002165438+1October 13, I refuted the other side's point of view at the press conference after meeting with the German minister in Oslo: "I don't want to say that your point of view is fart. Although it is really fart, we will listen to your opinion in good faith. "When I'm not working, I'm still working. My time is very strict. Get up at half past seven in the morning. After breakfast, go to the gym for an hour or an hour and a half, and then start working, not in the Kremlin, but in the presidential residence. Even if it's only for a minute, I'll go to the gym. I have a horse, and I will go for a walk in the bushes, but this is rare. It's usually 1: 30 in the morning when you sleep. The art of politics is to seek a balance between necessity and possibility. Every time, the specific situation we face is always different. Adapting to the environment itself is an art. I think I've been working hard all these years. Besides, I really work. People must have felt it. I promise you, I will work in the same way for the next four years. You can't work for some absurd ideal that no one understands. You should always work on the basis of reality, for the concrete people who are alive today, for the descendants who are alive tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. I have no regrets. Some things could have been handled in another way, but now that I have done it, I don't feel sorry, just a little uneasy and dissatisfied. I never drink, a small glass of vodka, that's all. Alcohol doesn't help solve the problem. I enjoy the pleasure of achieving my set goals. If something gets in my way, I'll move it. I used to be a very active child, or a naughty boy. Because I am not tall enough, I have to resort to force in order not to disgrace the name of a fighter. No sooner had I started boxing than someone broke my nose. Therefore, I began to practice judo. Soon, I found my advantage. I chose this sport because it allows me to dominate the street, and I also find that judo has changed me. The fight between hooligans became irrelevant. Sports helped me form my own outlook on life and develop my interpersonal relationship. The philosophy it contains is to teach you to respect your collaborators and make unremitting efforts for your goals. In this sense, I don't agree with the truth that "the result is not important, but the participation is important". It does not apply to decision makers and founders of society. In short, what matters to me is the result. I have some friends. I visit them regularly, but not often. These are close friends, and they criticize me bluntly. This has even become their main pastime! For me, they are very important because they have nothing to do with politics. I have no son, but I have two daughters. I never regret it. I am very philosophical in this respect. The most important expectation for them is love and development. They have many plans for the future, but they haven't made a decision yet. I have never read any books about me. It's really vulgar to test your fiancee. Women's feelings are always mysterious. I have to face this kind of power, and I have to admit that it is useless to adopt a special method of special occupation. ◆ February 14, 2008, the last press conference during my term of office ◎ "I want to thank every reporter present and thank you for your full cooperation with me in the past eight years and today. Nice to meet you at this press conference. Our work is fruitful. This work can let people in Russia and even other countries in the world know what changes are taking place in Russia, how people live here, what problems we have encountered and how we intend to solve them. Thank you very much, I wish you all the best, goodbye! " ◇ "I am very happy to list a set of figures to prove that 2007 was a successful year for Russia. The economic growth rate is 8. 1%, which is the best achievement in recent years. The purchasing power of Russian residents exceeds that of Italy and France, ranking seventh in the world. The income of Russian residents increased by 10%, and the number of low-income people and unemployed people continued to decrease in 2007. Industrial production increased by 6.3% and processing industry by 9. 1%. In addition, the main capital investment was the largest increase in eight years, reaching 2 1. 1%, private capital increased by 1 times compared with 2006, reaching 82.3 billion US dollars, the national gold reserve increased to170 million US dollars, and the stabilization fund reached 3.84 trillion rubles. " "This is what I want to say to you. I won't torture you with long monologues and boring numbers. Please ask questions! " ◇ "I didn't find anything obviously unsuccessful! We have accomplished all our tasks, achieved all our goals and finished all our work. What I want to say now is that if our measures are more appropriate, our inflation may be lower. " "At that time, we didn't have a unified country, not even a national anthem, and the laws of various federal entities were more or less inconsistent with the Constitution of the Federal Central Committee. We have restored territorial integrity and national unity. We laid the foundation of the national economy and made Russia a world economic power again. " I am convinced that I am worthy of the Russian people who elected me president twice. For eight years, I worked like a slave from morning till night, and I gave all my strength. I am very satisfied with my work! " ◇ "It's not easy for me to make decisions that others can't make. Do you think Bush is easy? " "What is democracy? As we all know, democracy is the right of the people. When our American partners deployed missile systems in the Czech Republic and Poland, who asked the people of the Czech Republic and Poland if they agreed? Who asked them? As far as I know, most Czechs don't like this. "
