(MENAFN) Vladimir Putin, the leader of Russia, stated on Wednesday that the nation's financial condition has improved than initially anticipated and would enable it to achieve all of its objectives.
“Our results, at least thus far, let’s say cautiously, are better than expected, better than the forecasts. This gives us hope that all the tasks as we have set them, will be fulfilled,” the leader declared throughout a conference with Russian Premier Mikhail Mishustin.
