Russian President Vladimir Putin said that classical party systems increasingly reflect the social structure of states.

Putin emphasized the importance of internal stability for any state.

MOSCOW, October 1 - RIA Novosti. Classical party systems reflect the social structure of states less and less, said Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“Classical party systems reflect the rapidly changing social structure less and less,” Putin said at the plenary session of the 23rd annual meeting of the Valdai International Discussion Club.

He emphasized that for any state, regardless of cultural and historical traditions, internal stability is always more important than anything else.

The Valdai International Discussion Club is an association of leading foreign and Russian experts in the field of political science, economics, history and international relations. The club was created in September 2004 on the initiative of the RIA Novosti agency, the Council on Foreign and Defense Policy, and the magazines "Russia in Global Affairs" and Russia Profile. The club owes its name to the location of the first conference, which took place in Veliky Novgorod near Lake Valdai.
