The documentary film "President 2.0" was screened on the Channel 31.

“Accept me who I am. I all the time serve in the state service since 1975, when I graduated the Moscow State University of Foreign Affairs. Certainly, I wear jacket to the work. I do not know how thing are going in the Moscow State University of Foreign Affairs. I used to wear a jacket before entering the university, because students were required to wear a jacket and a tie that times,” the President tells in the interview.
