Grigory Pasko: National Mirages
National Mirages Grigory Pasko, journalist When former president of Russia Vladimir Putin was singing the praises of the realization of the National Project for health care, only someone dense and lazy wouldn’t have had the thought this whole big PR bacchanalia was needed for the creation of at least some kind of positive image for the then little-known Dmitry Medvedev. It was none other than Medvedev who was responsible for these same National Projects, which, in the words of Putin himself and Medvedev himself, were “extraordinarily successful”.
