Radiy Khabirov spoke about birth rate increase in Bashkiria

In Bashkortostan in May and June of this year, an increase in the birth rate was recorded. During these two months, 88 people were born in Bashkortostan more than in the same period last year.

"We observe this, not large, but nevertheless growth for the first time since 2015. In fact, we are at the turning point of this trend, which we should maintain. To do this, we are implementing a wide range of measures to support young families - early diagnosis and prevention of diseases that prevent conception. We have a socially oriented budget allowing us to avoid waiting lists to kindergartens and nurseries, build schools, children's and adult hospitals, and clinics. Our priority is to create decent conditions for the development and upbringing of healthy children, and we will not step back from this. Even despite the crisis in the economy, we will never save on children," Radiy Khabirov posted on his social media.

Earlier, Bashinform News Agency reported that it was possible to stop the steep downfall in the birth rate in the republic.
