Russian President proposes new candidate for State Duma Speaker

Russian President proposes new candidate for State Duma Speaker

YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 23, ARMENPRESS. Russian President Vladimir Putin has called on the newly elected State Duma to support the candidacy of Vyacheslav Volodin as its speaker, reports TASS.

This is an important issue, Putin said, as the previous speaker Sergey Naryshkin, has been offered a leading post in the foreign intelligence service (SVR). 

Putin assumes that big experience at parliament will help Vyacheslav Volodin to structure work in position of the State Duma speaker if the legislators vote for him: 

"Vyacheslav Viktorovich (Volodin) knows what parliamentary work is like, he has been a deputy for a long time, and, while at the presidential administration, supported direct contacts with legislators, with faction leaders, with parties, - those were his professional obligations. I hope this all will help him in structuring the work at the lower house of the parliament, if, of course, the legislators vote for him," the president said during a meeting with leaders of the parties, which will be represented at the newly elected State Duma.
