Vladimir Putin: All families with children under 7 will receive five thousand rubles before New Year

At the traditional annual press conference, Vladimir Putin noted that he was asked many times about state support for families with children.

"This year, children's New-Year Parties, etc., have been canceled due to restrictions. However, this holiday is unusual; it is associated with expectations and hopes for the future. We agreed that the state would make a present for our children. We will pay five thousand rubles to all families with children under 7 years of age; every child in the family will receive this money, the President of Russia stated.

Families will receive these payments before the New Year.
