“We are actively involved in training contract soldiers. There are many people who would like to take part. We see that this is a very responsible job and we have increased the lump sum payment together with the Ministry of Defence. “Since July 10, we have already paid those who want to sign a contract more than 1 million rubles – a one-time payment when a person signs a contract,” Rudenya said. He recalled that the “Volga” tank battalion is registered in the region, which already has five Heroes of Russia.
According to the governor, he met with a member of the SVO last week, who came on vacation.
“We have him from our Spirovsky district, Hero of Russia, a young man who is not yet married. Very, you know, patriotic. I say: listen, you have an education, now let’s apply to the Ministry of Defense, you will be an officer. And he is a sergeant. He says: no, after a special military operation. Why? He says: there are some other papers to fill out for officers, but I took the guys with me, once they went. “We worked, returned to the unit and continued to work,” Igor continued.
“Thank you for this work and we must also constantly work for the families of the children who are fighting, to provide them with all possible support,” Vladimir Putin replied.
Rudenya responded by saying that additional payments have been made to families of the special operation participants and large families in the region.
“Because, you know, there are times when parents with many children also go to a special military operation, we somehow have to tell them not to rush, but there are, among other things, participants in a special military operation with many children. This, I think, is indicative of a phenomenon in our society, when people do not want to remain aloof from the events taking place and everyone actively participates. That is why both families and plots adopted laws on the allocation and programs for children,” explained the head of the region.
In addition, in the Tver region, children of SVO participants receive higher salaries.
“We have recruited 200 more people in secondary specialized medical education institutions, all are full, everything is fine, children are studying. Both parents and children are patriotic,” Rudenya stressed.
