The call-in show of the Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin has
received over half a million questions and requests, RIA Novosti
reports, citing the press-service of the Cabinet.
A special show called 'Conversation with Vladimir Putin. Resumption'
will be broadcast on 'Russia 1', 'Russia 24', the radio stations
'Mayak', 'Vesti FM' and 'Radio Rossii' on December 16 at noon (Moscow
time).
The questions are being received in form of text messages, telephone
calls and messages at a special site.
'Russia 24' says that 21% of the question concern housing, 17.5%
security and order, 12% - social support and insurance, 7% - family
and child problems. Education, science, culture and healthcare each
have 6%.
Putin's press-secretary Dmitry Peskov said earlier that there is more
interest in the show this year. Most of the questions come from
Moscow, then Krasnodar Territory.
The prime minister is usually asked about social support: changes to
the retirement age, maternity capital, military pensions and comments
on the events on Manezh Square and xenophobia. Part of the questions
concern housing problems, such as movement from houses in poor
condition, about the right of veterans of the Great Patriotic War for
housing. Women are usually asking about the lack of kindergartens,
football fans are interested in details about the 2018 World Cup.
