interaction between the party and millions of people in our country. the people's program, let me remind you that more than 2.5 million voters took part in its formation. it has truly become the basic document by which we live and work, and, of course, a feedback mechanism. with him the party came to victory in the elections to the state duma in the twenty-first year. based on citizens' requests, we have formed an action strategy at all levels of the party. from primary organizations to ministries, departments, the general council, the duma faction, met repeatedly to discuss this strategy, attracted regional leaders, heads of executive power, experts, and it was decided not only to annually monitor the implementation of program provisions, and my colleagues and i are doing this, many of those present here regularly do this, but... to include in the main document changes and

additions in accordance with the dictates of the times. i proceed from the fact that today we can state our promises to voters, our party is fulfilling, we have not abandoned our obligations we implement all planned socially significant projects. it's really not easy. we live in a very difficult situation. but nevertheless, not a single social obligation is crossed out. it is fundamentally important to prove to people that we are worthy of their trust. a few examples. as part of the implementation of the people's program, by the first of september this year, after repairs and reconstructions planned, 1,300 schools were opened in russian regions. the social gasification program continued actively, and people are really looking forward to it. our initiative, which once

was supported by the president of the country, made it possible to connect 400 thousand houses and 700,000 families to gas supply, let’s just think about the scale of these figures, the improvement of such courtyard facilities was in full swing, 14 million residents in one and a half thousand towns and villages took part. the united russia faction, when working on the federal budget , achieved that in the main financial one. significant programs to help the most vulnerable categories of citizens, families with children , pensioners, these are hundreds of billions of rubles, the document included funds for social such articles will not be reduced, the people's program with the most important parameters of national projects and state programs. we will continue this work in close contact with regional administrations and departments, with our colleagues, deputies, activists, of course, in general.

achievements, without doing absolutely anything, and this is a matter of principle, it concerns not only the image of the party, we are talking about our authority and the attitude towards united russia in society. much work in this direction is bearing fruit in terms of growth. voters' trust in our party, the strengthening of its authority , the results of the single voting day convincingly demonstrate, speaking here... with a report, i want about this 400 election campaigns in 86 regions of the country, the fate of more than 30,000 vacant mandates was determined. for the first time, voting took place in new regions of our state. according to the results of a single voting day, the party received 78% of the mandates in government bodies at all levels. in elections to regional legislative assemblies of twenty subjects. secured for herself

81% of the seats , more than 24 million voters voted for its candidates, it is very expensive, and we... during the election campaign, stop any attempts to influence the course of the company from the outside or organize provocations, spread false, harmful information or disrupt public order. the victory of the president, the victory of vladimir vladimirovich putin, as

our candidate, should be absolutely natural, legitimate and absolutely indisputable. this.

over forces, we must create all conditions so that future generations, citizens of our countries, which our comrades just talked about here, looked into the future with

confident optimism, i have no doubt that this will happen. vladimir vladimirovich putin is a candidate for the post of president of the russian federation in the elections scheduled for march 17 , 2024. voting on this issue is open. please vote. who agrees? against? abstained? accepted. president of the russian federation vladimir

diversity of ideas, opinions, open and honest discussion of problems, ways to solve them, this is certainly the key to the dynamic development of the country, without this development there will be no development at all, but always with all the difference.

russia cannot, like some countries , give up its sovereignty in exchange for sausage and become someone’s satellite. we must remember and never forget to punish our children. russia will either be sovereign. to such a unifying, creative agenda, to respond

, to respond to the most pressing issues in the life of the country, in this regard, i would like to note that many laws aimed at supporting the participants in the special military operation of their families were developed precisely on the initiative of united russia, and they were voted for in solidarity by the way, all the deputies voted, and what happens in parliament is to a large extent. the result of such consolidated work of united russia in the state duma, here now only at a meeting with the leaders of the faction, this was also said, i ask you to actively interact in partnership with other political parties and public associations in solving the most important problems for us. what i would like to especially note is that we have unleashed both the social sphere of russia and our political and state system against us. they believed and believe that...

we responded to the challenges because consistently, step by step, year after year.

danish consent is a betrayal and a crime against the only source authorities, his sovereign right to choose his future, we will protect him from any external interference, the russian state will be sovereign, and therefore truly popular, we will have to continue to improve democratic institutions and mechanisms of democracy. local self-government, direct participation in non-public authorities, and here there is also painstaking work ahead, including legislative work in the federal and regional parliaments, the widespread use of best management practices and, of course, strengthening human resources. now we are implementing a whole line of projects, initiatives, competitions so that

talented, competent, motivated people can reveal, express and realize themselves, and bring. for united russia, many of our comrades, party members, its supporters, deputies of various levels, passed through the front, are now fighting on the front line, we will support them, what i want here, they have said more than once that... in one platoon, in one section, in the same trench, often together people of different nationalities and religions, but everyone is united by a real military brotherhood, the will to victory, willingness to do everything to protect russia, and we have only one, participates

in the development of the volunteer movement. united russia is being helped by frontline soldiers and civilians in our liberated cities and towns. i repeat , we have a lot of such determined, brave people who went through the front, showed themselves in the voluntary movement, working in our liberated historical lands of donbass and novorossia, as well as specialists in various fields, these are doctors, teachers, scientists , entrepreneurs, working defense engineers.

in fact, this document is filled with new ideas, projects, taking into account already resolved issues and unresolved problems. thus, the people ’s program has already reflected the key directions of the socio-economic revival of the donetsk and lugansk people ’s republics, for families, which was announced in our country, in dialogue with society, with people,

they will offer new initiatives aimed at supporting motherhood and childhood, strengthening our ... traditional family values, the development of a mentoring system, and these are all extremely important, fundamental issues for the demographic development of russia, for the preservation of our people. you know that there are still a lot of unsolved problems, but it’s a well-known fact that as soon as you take a step forward , solve some problem, two, three, four, five new ones immediately appear, and this is... a normal thing, no need to say, we did this, but people are dissatisfied with something or want something else, this is how it was and will always be this way, we need to prepare ourselves for the fact that the tasks are increasing. like a snow god, but this, i ask you to have it all in mind, precisely in response to people’s appeals

, to the issues that concern them, it is imperative to include in the election program such areas as the development of primary health care, the construction and renewal of mass sports infrastructure, and so on and so forth, i want to emphasize these and other tasks in general... together with the citizens of russia we will formulate a development strategy for the long term, i repeat once again, we will do this primarily based on opinions, on people’s requests, and i would like to say it again to say, now our every decision, our every word and deed have a special price and have a special meaning for our country, time requires us to be firm, even in the most difficult situations... i am sure that united russia, all our supporters, will continue to work with full dedication to results for people, to
