Russian paper urges 'unpopular measures' after election
Original: Russian paper: “The election’s over. It’s time for unpopular measures.”
The Russian newspaper headline quoted by BBC correspondent Steve Rosenberg reads: 'The election's over. It's time for unpopular measures.' The blunt framing has drawn wide attention, as it appears to acknowledge that economically painful decisions are expected now that voting in Russia's presidential election has concluded. Commentators are treating the line as a rare public admission about what may follow for ordinary Russians.
Why now: The strikingly candid headline about impending unpopular economic steps after Russia's election resonates widely amid expectations of austerity or tax rises.
