Примаков предостерегает не путать нео-либерализм с подлинными либеральными ценностями

Ветеран российской власти и бывший премьер-министр Евгений Примаков обвинил неолиберальные идеи в замедлении российской экономики в 2013 году, и предостерег не путать неолиберализм с поистине либеральными ценностями.

Выступая в "Меркурий-клубе", президентом которого является Примаков, он заявил, что неолибералы настаивают на скорейшем уходе государства из экономики, в то время как, отметил он, это скажется негативно на ее состоянии, сообщает ИТАР-ТАСС. "Можно ли считать, что в России сегодня рыночные механизмы способны сами по себе обеспечить рост? Конечно, нет",- сказал он. Президент "Меркурий-клуба" отметил, что в современных российских условиях только крупный бизнес, в том числе государственные компании, обладает достаточным инвестиционным потенциалом для финансового обеспечения реализации крупных проектов, необходимых для развития России. "В условиях неразвитой свободной конкуренции не приходится рассчитывать, что малый и средний бизнес станет локомотивом развития экономики РФ", - сказал он.

В то же время Примаков призвал не путать неолиберализм с истинными либеральными ценностями. "Необходимо отметить, что существует огромный разрыв между неолиберализмом, особенно в экономике, и истинно либеральными требованиями - независимости суда, борьбы с коррупцией, неподкупности чиновников, обязательным подчинением всех закону", - подчеркнул он.

European States "disturbed and deeply concerned at the deteriorating situation in Georgia"

A number of European states have said that they are "disturbed and deeply concerned at the deteriorating situation in Georgia". In a Joint statement of 11 July 2025 the Foreign Ministers of Belgium, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Latvia, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom and the High Representative of the European Union commented on recent developments in Georgia We, the Foreign Ministers of European democracies, are disturbed and deeply concerned at the deteriorating situation in Georgia. We strongly condemn the recent, politically motivated, imprisonment and detention of the leaders of Georgian opposition, clearly designed to stifle political opposition in Georgia, a few months ahead of the local elections. Their detention, as well as arbitrary arrests and increasing repression of other Georgian authorities` critics, representatives of civil society, peaceful protesters and independent journalists, contribute to dismantling of democracy in Georgia and rapid transformation towards an authoritarian system, in contradiction to European norms and values. Recent legislative changes aim at stifling independent civil society and legitimate protest.
