Rustam Minnikhanov: Naberezhnyye Chelny does a lot of work to support soldiers in the special military operation zone and their families

On 24 February speaking at a meeting of the Naberezhnyye Chelny City council held by the Mayor of the city Nail Magdeev and summarizing the outcomes of social and economic development of the city in 2022, the Rais (Head) of Tatarstan Rutsam Minnikhanov said that Naberezhnyye Chelny does a lot of work to support soldiers in the special military operation zone and their families. 

He reminded that a year ago Russian President took a decision to start special military operation and many Tatarstan residents including those from Naberezhnyye Chelny are defending interests of the country in the military actions. “We sincerely wish the guys successful fulfillment of the set tasks and to come back home safe and sound”, he said. 

According to Rustam Minnikhanov one of the main tasks is current support given to soldiers and their families and even though there is a special state Fund, which provides help to families of the fallen and war veterans, this does not lift responsibility from other structures and levels of power. 

“We will continue paying the most close attention to soldiers and their families and from the very beginning of the military operation Naberezhnyye Chelny has shaped interaction of industrial enterprises, business community and volunteers movement, having organized systemic work in providing all necessary to the military and supporting their families”, Rustam Minnikhanov said. 

He attracted attention to the fact that the city has already sent more than 500 tonnes of humanitarian aid and demanded vehicles to the new regions of the country, including Lisichansk.

“I want to express all of you my appreciation for your active participation in this important matter”, the Rais of Tatarstan added.
