Информационное Агентство "Хакасия"
Неудачное обращение вождя по поводу реформы пенсий открыло новый этап его отношений с подданными. С тех пор эксперимент лишь набирает обороты. Заканчивается лето, которое дало главе России множество поводов, чтобы отбросить привычную свою пиар-технику, появиться на экранах и сказать согражданам нечто серьезное и безотлагательное.
