Actions taken by Medvedev and Putin to improve business and public confidence on Dec. 17, 2014, as the ruble hits 80 to the dollar
12/17/2014
As one Russian economic expert put it we are just days from needing external help if no serious action is taken to restore public and business confidence in the ruble. On Dec. 17, 2014, Russian leaders took action to improve confidence and the ruble recovered by 11%. The role of Kudrin, Medvedev, and other advisers from the first and second terms of Putin is increasing as Russia faces increasing economic risks and deep recession.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
