The All-Russian political party "United Russia" is a voluntary association of Russian citizens, whose main goal is to ensure a decent life for both current and future generations of Russians.
According to the decision of the XII Congress of the party, its program includes speeches by Russian President Dmitry Medvedev and Prime Minister Vladimir Putin. On the eve of the presidential elections in Russia on March 4, 2012, the United Russia party asked the Russians to support its candidate, Vladimir Putin, and presented the People's Program based on proposals from more than 1.5 million Russians. The presented program consists of six sections and addresses the most pressing problems, aspirations and hopes of citizens. 1. The results of the decade and the challenges ahead According to the party, a lot has been achieved over the past decade. Separatism has been defeated, the most severe financial crisis has been overcome, and the country has paid off the debts of the former USSR. Economic stability has been achieved, which has determined high rates of economic growth. Inflation and unemployment have decreased, mortality is gradually decreasing. During the global economic crisis, Russia not only did not reduce, but also increased the amount of social support for citizens. The party declares its readiness for decisive action to modernize the country. 2. Our values The United Russia Party believes that only a morally healthy society can provide the correct answer to new challenges. The country's strength lies in the spiritual wealth and unity of the multinational Russian people. It is necessary to revive and strengthen these values through the development of culture, cooperation with traditional religious confessions. It is necessary to actively defend the foundations of morality in the media and on the Internet. Human development is a key value; the state must create all the conditions for this. Russia's future lies in its regions. People should live well in every corner of the country. 3. A decent life for the citizens of a great country Citizens of Russia should have decent salaries and pensions. The construction of social housing will be launched in the regions, and housing construction cooperatives will begin to be created. The size of pensions, which has been steadily increasing in recent years, will continue to grow. It is necessary to put things in order in housing and communal services. Put the family at the center of public policy. Carry out further modernization of the education system. Make human health one of the priorities. Ensure a decent life for people with disabilities. 4. Strong Economy - Strong Russia The basis for the growth of the well-being of citizens and ensuring the country's security is a strong economy. The economic model of the past decades, based on the use of natural resources, has exhausted itself. Investment growth is required, bringing the country to a new technological level of development. Private property must be protected from any encroachment. Priority will be given to innovation. A fair tax policy must be pursued. Create modern conditions for rural life. Provide quality and affordable transport infrastructure. 5. Effective government under the control of the people The party promises to ensure that government is held accountable to the people. Mechanisms of popular control over the activities of the authorities in the most dangerous spheres from the point of view of corruption will be created. How exactly to equip the country is up to the people to decide. 6. Strong Russia in a Complex World Russia has regained its position as one of the strongest world powers. Integration projects, such as the creation of the Eurasian Union, should provide new opportunities for development. It is necessary to establish close relations with other countries, to support compatriots. The armed forces must undergo a deep modernization and be able to solve the entire spectrum of possible tasks.
