Russian President Dmitry Medvedev declared that Russia would not return to the system of regional governors’ direct elections, abolished in 2004. Since then governors are appointed by the President with some involvment of regional legislatures and political parties. “I do not see conditions under which we could renounce this decision – neither now, nor in 100 years,” stated Medvedev.
