I think this is a crazy idea. It is no different from the idea of world domination which the Nazis used as a cover when perpetrating their crimes. What is the difference? The Nazis did it on the racial and ethnic principle, and here the key factor is religion. And not only the Islamic factor, to use the current expression, but the radical Islamic factor. Not only Christians or representatives of other religions are the enemies of these people, but even the Muslims who do not share their views. They seek to create a Caliphate not only on the territory of the Russian Federation; they want to build a world Caliphate. I repeat, that is not much different from the idea of world domination advanced by Hitler and his henchmen. These are criminal elements. And one should take a tough and consistent stand when talking with them.

Why have they turned their attention to Russia?

First, because there are large Muslim enclaves and they believe that they can deceive their population. And second, until recently, certainly in the early and mid-1990s, Russia was thought to be an easy prey: the state was weakened and the first step towards implementing the plan could be taken there.

They have no chance.

QUESTION: The people of Tolbazy are undeterred by the cold, and here is one question from Venera Yermolayeva, the head of the village council. Good morning, Vladimir Vladimirovich. My question is what to expect with regard to pensions? Most importantly, will the accumulative part of the pensions remain intact? I am sure they will dip into it

VLADIMIR PUTIN: You know, it is a very important and interesting question that worries millions of people.

What will happen to pensions? Pensions will grow. There will be several adjustments next year. The average pension today is 1496 rubles, and next year pensions should grow to 1690 rubles, perhaps a little more if the Government raises the minimum wage. In that case the Pension Fund will react in the autumn of next year and the pension may grow to 1700. In general, pensions will grow.

Secondly, next year people will get a real feel of how the contributory system of pensions works. They will see how much money they have saved and the question will arise, what to do with that money. It is no idle question. You have asked about how safe that accumulated part is. Its a very important question. I must tell you that of course the law will protect everyone from common theft. It is a well-drafted law and it envisages all possible protection from elementary stealing. You can place your savings in government pension funds and if you do so, the government will offer you several so-called packages, that is, instruments such as securities in which you can invest your money and the government will be fully responsible for the safety of these assets. You will be able to put your money in private pension funds. I think the interest rate in them will be higher, but the economic risks will also be higher. Ultimately, it is up to you.

SERGEI BRILEV: With your permission, I will read a question from the Internet: Does Chechnya need a referendum and a new constitution? Maskhadov has been popularly elected too. Why not introduce a state of emergency if our soldiers and policemen get killed there every day? By the way, the idea has been debated in political circles. Perhaps we have been too liberal. And when will conscripts in Chechnya be replaced by professional soldiers under contract? Quite a handful of questions. Perhaps you could start with the state of emergency?
