"that I was lucky in life, is that I was the press Secretary for [Russian President Vladimir] Putin, he said. Because of becoming press Secretary, from my point of view, the most brilliant statesman in the world, the current most influential statesman in the world is, of course, good luck in life. A unique opportunity every day to learn not from books, but in real life, a unique opportunity to feel yourself in the midst of processes that are vital not only for our country but all over the world, and at the same time to bear, of course, their share of the responsibility, which is not too small".
Peskov admitted that for him the post of press Secretary, as in previous posts, there is no concept of creative freedom.
"What is creative freedom, I don’t know at all, because the administration of [President] I came from the Ministry of foreign Affairs, returned from our Embassy in Ankara," he explained.
"the Ambassadorial life, which I began in the Soviet Union, probably, is characterized by even less freedom than working in the presidential administration," – said Peskov.
"Freedom is what I have now, ‘ said the spokesman. – It is not a burden. This is the work of civil servants".
Speaking of public service, Peskov noted that the people of the word "bureaucrat" with time was used with a negative shade.
"It is not, is a civil servant who works for the state, he said. – The state hires me, pays my salary, and I work".
