young people are worried that a mortgage will simply not be available to them, changes to the tax system have been proposed, as the president emphasized, here you need to be careful and make quote verified decisions, however, this discussion was continued behind closed doors doors, without television cameras, there is every reason to believe that the conversation was substantive. thank you, nastya, i told you how vladimir putin’s meeting with the candidates for the presidency went. anastasia efimova. 10 years in their native harbor in the very heart of the country, a big concert is being held on red square in honor of the anniversary of the reunification of crimea with russia. tens of thousands of muscovites and guests of the capital began to gather for it several hours before the start.

art performances will take place in the main square of the country. they will congratulate the russians on this memorable date. and now mine is there colleague daria kozlova. daria, greetings. how is the situation on red square at this moment ? the start of this gala evening. the concert is dedicated, of course, to the main holiday of this day and the first anniversary of crimea as part of russia, 10 years in its native harbor, that’s exactly what the name sounds like this concert. and it is gratifying to see that among those thousands of people who came to red square today, there are a lot of young

people, 20-25 years old, those people who now live in the reality where crimea is part of russia. from the far east to the kaliningrad region, then there are a lot of young people among the participants, but if you return now here to... march 2014 signed an agreement on the reunification of crimea with russia. let's

listen to what the head of crimea said today. for us, dear friends of crimeans, this is a holiday unity, love for the motherland, which we carried through the years. 10 years have really flown by for us. very quickly, but these 10 years have become for us a symbol of freedom, a symbol of development, a symbol of great, significant joint achievements, all this, i mean, our crimean dream of returning to our historical homeland, happened primarily thanks to the wise, courageous decisions of our leader , our president vladimir vladimirovich putin, these decisions reflect the will of the entire russian people. well, they really are 10 years old passed not only under the symbol of unity, but it is also extremely important that they passed under the symbol of development, cultural development, development. structure, development of transport , development of education, because if you look,

in 2014, the overwhelming majority of roads in the territory of the republic of crimea were in unsatisfactory condition, over the years, only since 2015, about 400 billion rubles were allocated for the development of transport infrastructure in crimea, about 300 km of new roads were built, which is just the tavrida highway, 258 km of modern road, which connected crimea. well, of course, the new terminal at the simferopol airport, which was opened in 2018, the crimean bridge 2020, the crimean bridge, not only did it become a really important transport artery that connected crimea and the krasnodar region, it became just this symbol unity as a symbol of unity, in honor of the tenth anniversary, a patriotic mural of 10 years was unveiled in its native harbor.

the status that was given to the new territories within russia 10 years ago, it guaranteed them that even within russia they would receive opportunities, the development of culture, of course, vladimir mashkov, co-chairman of vladimir putin’s election headquarters, spoke today about the development of culture, he is also here today at a concert on red square, what he said is the reunification of crimea. and sevastopol with russia was a long-awaited fair event, it is a holiday

of unity, and you know, all crimeans and sevastopol residents are grateful to all of russia and our president, they see how their interests are defended and how much has been done for them in these 10 years. another area that cannot be ignored, which we are now talking about crimea - this is the social sphere, the development of kindergartens, the development of schools, hospitals, now the provision of kindergartens in the republic of crimea is 100%. in addition, in 2014 this figure is higher now. according to the latest data, it decreased from 52% to 2.5%, and

literally in the last few years two modern multifunctional medical centers were opened in the crimea in yalta and simferopol, a lot is being done to ensure that there are already needs, so that there really is comfortable and there they can send their children to school where they can get quality medical. of course, if possible , we will also talk about medical care in the republic of crimea with maryana lusenko, co-chairman of vladimir putin’s collective headquarters and chief physician of the moscow city hospital.

they put pressure on us, they tried to manipulate us, but we united and proved that we are together, and we elected our president. on march 18 , 2014, the entire population of crimea expressed the results of the referendum; the referendum took place 2 days earlier. on march 16 there was a referendum, on march 18 almost 97% of the population supported connection with russia, and of course a lot has been done and a lot of public work is now being carried out in crimea, about the communication with youth that is now happening with the youth of crimea, the zaporozhye region, also
