Kremlin comments on propriety of talking about overhaul of Medvedev government’s decisions

The previous Russian government's work has been commended by Russian President Vladimir Putin, it would be inappropriate to talk about an overhaul of the former government’s decisions, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.

His statement came in response to a question regarding the Russian Ministry of Education and Science’s recent reversal of an order for international cooperation, approved by the previous Cabinet of Ministers.

"This question is completely inappropriate, I think it would be impossible and counterproductive to answer it," the spokesman said. 

Peskov recalled that the outcomes of the work of former Russian PM Dmitry Medvedev’s "government have been commended by President Putin many times."

 "Medvedev’s government achieved some significant results, and the current government is not starting anew," TASS cited the spokesman as saying.
