(AGENPARL) – MOSCOW ven 01 luglio 2022
Vladimir Putin sent his greetings to the participants, organisers and guests of the 2022 Cities of Labour Glory National Forum.
The message reads, in part:
“From the first days of the Great Patriotic War, all our people rose
shoulder to shoulder to defend the Motherland. Home front workers made a huge
contribution to the Great Victory. A title of honour, City of Labour Glory, was
established as a sign of the deepest respect and gratitude for those who in harsh
conditions worked at defence and industrial enterprises, on transport and in mines, without regard for their own lives and sparing no effort to provide the front
with everything necessary.
The capital of Chuvashia was rightfully awarded this high honour.
Factories evacuated to Cheboksary produced ammunition and equipment for marine
and aviation vehicles, as well as food and clothing for soldiers. And of course, a special, unforgettable page in our military history is the construction
of defensive lines around the country’s major industrial centres. Two such lines – Sursky and Kazansky – ran through the territory of Chuvashia. And today, in memory of this truly national feat, a memorial to the Builders of Silent Frontiers
is being unveiled here.
I am sure that the erection of this majestic
monument will contribute to the preservation of our historical memory and the education of young people in the spirit of patriotism and pride in the military
feats and labour achievements of our fathers and grandfathers.”
