“As they say, a holy place is never empty. Therefore, we invite you and are ready to discuss those areas that have traditionally existed in our relations with Western countries. Therefore, we will now actively develop dialogue with the countries of the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and Latin America, and develop contacts that will not be subject to sanctions and political aspects. The economy should be independent of political aspects,” Manturov said.
In November 2014, Denis Manturov said that the weakening of the ruble should not lead to an increase in food prices. According to the official, our food importers are actively working on the transition to making payments in national currencies with other countries and abandoning the use of the dollar and euro. Therefore, our consumers should not sound the alarm.
“We proceed from the fact that the weakening of the ruble should not affect a sharp increase in prices; our companies quite pragmatically proceed from the fact that it is better to pay in local currencies, which actually hedges the risks from using the euro-dollar exchange rate difference,” Manturov said, surprising thereby many Russians.

Natalya Manturova: plastic clinics employ people for whom we cannot vouch
“We are currently working on completing this document,” she said. “We are still working on organizing residency training and developing requirements for the qualifications and knowledge of plastic surgeons. This is a related, complex discipline. And in general, we are developing a scheme for the number of doctors per country, for all districts of the Russian Federation: how many plastic surgeons need to be produced per year. We haven’t resolved these issues yet.”
According to Natalya Manturova, the process of forming an educational program has not yet been completed, and no one can guarantee the high quality of training of specialists from the relevant departments. “With a huge number of plastic clinics, they employ people for whom we cannot vouch,” she noted and recalled that the main function of the professional association and the entire community is the certification and accreditation of graduates as highly professional specialists. “Unfortunately, we are now seeing that due to the huge number of unprofessional specialists, highly professional specialists are suffering.”
The head of the Department of Plastic and Maxillofacial Surgery at the Russian Medical Academy of Continuing Professional Education, Alexander Nerobeev, believes that the situation is so bad that it’s time to sound the alarm. “What outrages me most is the erosion of the specialty,” he said. – I’m ashamed to call myself a plastic surgeon when I see what’s shown on TV. We remove gels endlessly - patients come to us every day. It's all about the apparent ease of getting an education. Almost 25% of my students work in fitness centers, they don’t even want to study because they know that they will inject fillers, insert threads, etc. They are proficient in several standard surgeries: breast surgery, liposuction, upper and lower eyelids, facelift, etc. It turns out: a huge number of doctors, half of whom can’t really do anything. The catastrophe is spreading. This needs to be stopped somehow!”
Another problem that Alexander Nerobeev points out is the emergence of more and more new methods: “Commerce scares us. On the one hand, this is the development of plastic surgery, on the other hand, this is unfounded advertising of new methods, because companies and money are behind it. Firms organize endless symposiums. A person finds himself faced with a temptation that he cannot resist.”
The head of the territorial body of Roszdravnadzor for Moscow and the Moscow region, Andrei Plutnitsky , confirmed that during inspections of plastic clinics and departments, inspectors most often encounter an inadequate level of education and competence in the field of services provided. In Moscow, for example, there are about 300 plastic clinics, and only a third have a license to provide inpatient care, he noted.
