Many people believe that the President conducts a very competent foreign policy, trying to reduce some tension between Russia and other countries that arises due to various reasons, but the President's domestic policy is very weak. Unfortunately, the number of rich people and oligarchs as well as the poor is growing, and the economy is falling. However, the President as a head of Government periodically offers various solutions to help the population: hotlines, social packages, demographic programs, etc.
