与他的前任弗拉基米尔普京不同,德米特里梅德韦杰夫在将自己的支持者提拔到领导岗位上方面相对没有什么成功。他与国防和安全官员的会晤次数较少,而且更加正式;他与主要经济部长的会晤次数少于他的前任,即使在国际经济危机最严重的时期,他也继续不定期地与他们会晤。实际上,应对危机的工作被移交给了政府委员会,这些委员会每天开会。与此同时,普京的政治影响力也因他对主要公司的任命和他领导的统一俄罗斯党在杜马中的绝大多数席位而得到加强。“串联”是一个不稳定的结构,完全取决于两位领导人之间的关系;但它在经济危机中幸存下来,在很大程度上是因为俄罗斯的软威权主义不允许独立媒体和政治反对派抵制和拖延其决定。
Unlike his predecessor Vladimir Putin, Dmitrii Medvedev had relatively little success in promoting his own supporters to leading positions. His meetings with defence and security officials took place less frequently, and were more highly formalized; he met key economic ministers less often than his predecessor, and continued to meet them irregularly even during the worst of the international economic crisis. Responses to the crisis, in practice, were devolved to government commissions, which met daily. Putin’s political weight was meanwhile enhanced by his appointments to leading companies and by the substantial majority in the Duma that had been secured by United Russia, of which he was the leader. The ‘tandem’ was an unstable construction that depended entirely on the relationship between the two leaders; but it survived the economic crisis, in large part because Russia’s soft authoritarianism allowed no space for an independent media and a political opposition to resist and delay its decisions.
