In politics, as in any field, there must be continuity. The past 30 years, during which I have been at the helm of the parliament, have been for me a period of great responsibility, intense work and, at the same time the period filled with pride for our parliament, for our republic and for those who by their work make a substantial contribution into the development of the native republic – a backbone region of Russia,” Farid Mukhametshin said.
