Vladimir Putin sent his greetings to the participants, organisers and guests of the awards ceremony for the 6th Pride of the Nation Russian Public Prize presented for personal contribution to the ethnocultural development and strengthening of the unity of the peoples of Russia.
The message reads, in part:
“Today, we honour the winners of this prestigious award: active and compassionate people whose dedicated and creative work, as well as participation in long-standing humanitarian, volunteer, educational, and outreach projects, help preserve the rich historical and spiritual heritage and the ethnocultural diversity of the peoples of Russia.
This year, the award has reached an entirely new level. For the first time, competitive selection rounds were held in every federal district, significantly expanding its geography and impact. It is also deeply symbolic that, in the Year of the Defender of the Fatherland and the 80th anniversary of the Great Victory, a special category has been established: “One for All.” Its very name reflects the spirit of unity, brotherhood, and true camaraderie among our heroes – combat veterans, military personnel, doctors, war correspondents, and volunteers – all those who together stand in defence of the Fatherland, fighting and working for its future.
I am confident that today’s ceremony will take place in a warm and heartfelt atmosphere and will become a true celebration for everyone gathered here.”
