a Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin told President Vladimir Putin on the progress made in combating the spread of coronavirus and shared plans for the removal of several limitations. In particular, he is going to open non-food stores, to solve a number of household services and let the Muscovites walk. However, not all at once, and on schedule. In addition, the capital now engaged in assistance to the regions, where the situation is still don’t look so optimistic. Respondents NEWS.ru experts praised Sobyanin’s plans and found them to be timely and adequate, noting that these steps will help to reduce anxiety in humans.
During the conversation, Putin and Sobyanin, the last one was something to boast about: the last time the schedule the number of new cases has a pronounced tendency to decrease, but today their number was the lowest for the entire month. In addition, a steadily growing number of Ebola survivors, three days in a row exceeding the number of infected. This suggests that the burden on health care institutions is slowly but surely decreasing, and the peak, apparently, overcome. What is important, according to the mayor, this positive trend has not suffered from previously adopted decision on resumption of construction sites and industrial enterprises. Although passenger traffic has increased since may 12, a million people a day, a new splash of morbidity is avoided.
On the background of such news, of course, the townspeople were hoping for liberalization of the regime of self-isolation, and expectations were met, but only partly. Sobyanin told the President that since June 1, wants to resume work-and non-food stores, noting that this sector employs 300 thousand people. He also intends to allow to resume the work of enterprises providing consumer services. But only those, which do not require long contact with the client, like dry-cleaners and shops. To sadness fashionistas, beauty salons, obviously, will be closed for some time. And the best news: Muscovites will be allowed to walk. People in the test mode will produce on the street, “according to a special schedule”. It is worth noting that even before NEWS.ru found out about plans to introduce a form of walking. Sobyanin explained by the fact that, if you allow everyone to walk as and when they want, the streets will be as many people as “may day demonstrations”.
However, only one discussion of cases in Moscow online meeting mayor with the President is not limited. Vladimir Putin noted that there are several regions where the situation is still quite heavy. In particular, he mentioned Dagestan, North Ossetia, Ingushetia, Zabaikalsky Krai, Vladimir and the Pskov region. Especially since the last Governor just today announced on his page in Instagram that he appealed to the President asking ��assistance of qualified personnel and provision of some items of medical equipment. Sobyanin promised that in the next two days in these regions from Moscow will be sent to help.
in addition to doctors, refer to personal protective equipment, and ventilators, medical supplies, all that is needed to comprehensively support the health centres in these regions, he said.
In General, it seems that the satisfaction of interviews received both policies. Mr President, finally, I heard a lot of good news, not just stories about the vicissitudes of life and all the difficulties, as Mr Sobyanin received a decent portion of public praise from the main man in the country. Well, Muscovites, probably, began to look into the future a little happier, knowing that they will soon be available to the simple pleasures of fresh air, though not all at once.
The President of the Russian Association of political advisers Alexey Kurtov in conversation with NEWS.ru called suggestions Sobyanin adequate and faithful in terms of political psychology.
Alexey Kurtov, President of the Russian Association of political consultants:
the criteria, the identified direction of movement and the sequence of steps to remove the quarantine restrictions. For residents of Moscow and other regions, it is important to understand the actions of the authorities, and obtaining accurate and complete information, the responsibility of managers. It relieves the feeling of anxiety.
Kurts also stressed that the authorities now it is important to strike a balance between the epidemiological situation, the economy, urban governance and the wishes of the inhabitants.
The General Director of Agency of political and economic communications Dmitry Orlov also noted the responsibility and detail approach of the capital mayor to the issue of lifting restrictions.
Dmitry Orlov, General Director of “Agency of political and economic communications”:
the Risks of infection in non-food trade and “non-contact” household service, when you walk in a special mode is relatively small. Clearly, therefore, the mayor and offers to remove constraints in these segments in the first place. The mayor demonstrates responsible and detailed approach, avoiding the simultaneous output mode of isolation, the main risk which — in a significant new wave of infection by the coronavirus. Precedents for such developments in other countries, we have already seen.
Spin doctor Alena August agree that the time has come to remove restrictions and not only for revitalizing the city’s economy, but to rescue Muscovites from the craziness at the four walls.
Alena August, politteh��olog:
regarding the walking schedule which is proposed to head the management company or HOA, is very anecdotal. How to operate Moscow “zhilishchnik”, we all remember with a shudder, agree, and, for example, in my house there is only beautiful older home. And she’s the oldest in all senses, even WhatsApp is not her friend, what kind of chart is it?
How to be organized rides on the schedule, we have yet to learn. But very pleased with the change task: if until recently the authorities stood the target level “all deny”, then the vector is shifted. And there’s a chance this summer for Muscovites will be lost completely.
