.Medvedev to meet with leaders of four parliamentary parties.
MOSCOW, July 12 (Itar-Tass) - Leaders of four parties represented in
the lower house of Russian parliament will by tradition meet with
President Dmitry Medvedev to discuss election campaign themes.
The ruling party United Russia thoroughly prepared for the discussion
on the parliamentary elections due in December, the deputy secretary of
the party's general council presidium, Yuri Shuvalov, told Itar-Tass.
"The elections will take place in the post-crisis period, in
compliance with the new election legislation providing support for small
parties that as we believe will be able to make their names heard and
perhaps, will implement the law on receiveing one-two mandates," he said.
"We will speak about the election control from the point of view of
creating equal conditions for all parties to monitor the voting.
Transparency of the elections and registration of all possible violations
are very important for us," Shuvalov said.
He also assured that "if some initiatives that should be fixed
legislatively emerge during the dialogue with the president, we have an
opportunity to do this as there is an autumn session ahead."
State Duma speaker Boris Gryzlov plans "to focus on protection of
young people from a drug trafficking threat emanating from our southern
borders and unfortunately, making progress." In this regard he reiterated
that child protection was the central issue of the president's
state-of-the-nation address.
The vice speaker of the lower house of parliament, Ivan Melnikov, who
is the first deputy chairman of the Communist Party's central committee,
supposed that the president will as always set the tone of the meeting
himself. "Probably, we will begin from the reasons of the tragedy on the
Volga Rive (where the cruise ship Bulgaria sank on July 10 killing 58
people).
Melnikov, who will accompany KPRF leader Gennady Zyuganov to the
meeting with the president, underlined that "in fact, this will be the
last meeting, when some compromise decisions can be taken, as this will
already be late to do in autumn."
The Liberal Democratic Party represented by its leader Vladimir
Zhirinovsky and head of the party's State Duma faction, Igor Lebedev, will
touch upon "better living conditions for Russian people in the country and
abroad, regulation of migration processes and customs policy as well as
the housing construction."
The LDPR will also oppose any amendments to be made to the election
legislation ahead of the elections.
Just Russia speaks against any amendments, especially those made at
the regional level, the party's leader, Sergei Mironov said. Among other
issues for discussion he proposed social welfare and offshore zones.
