Andrey Nazarov called Bashkiria country’s backbone in economic and social development

Andrey Nazarov noted that Russia had entered a defining period of its development. Our country defines itself as a state civilization in the Foreign Policy Concept. And this is not an exaggeration: our country is a large community of peoples, and its cultural influence goes far beyond territorial boundaries, covering the whole world.

According to Andrey Nazarov, Russia's strength lies in its originality. She simultaneously "looks" to the west, east, and south, taking the best from there but retaining her uniqueness. The current geopolitical situation has pushed Russia to strengthen its own identity. The main task of the country today is to protect sovereignty, defend its ideals and principles, and form its successful economic model based on investments in its development. This can be achieved by consolidating around priority goals, spiritual values, relying only on one's strengths and worldview.

“Bashkortostan has traditionally been the country’s backbone in economic, scientific, technical, and social development. We are the heart of Eurasia, the birthplace of talented people, a large industrial and agricultural cluster. Together we work to unlock our potential. This is seen in Ufa in its pre-anniversary year. Infrastructure projects, the construction of social institutions, and the reconstruction of the city’s historical center will become long-term investments in the development and comfort of citizens. They will subsequently generate revenues for the budget. Together we continue the work of our ancestors, protecting and developing our homeland. After all, it was precisely for this that Salavat Yulaev fought in his time - for the well-being of his native land, a fair attitude towards the people, and the region’s natural wealth. Today we confidently look to the future, which is the contribution of generations of our fellow citizens. Russia is in each of us; we are a great civilization. Happy holiday, Russia! Happy holiday, beloved city! - wrote the Prime Minister of the Republic, Andrey Nazarov.

Earlier, Bashinform News Agency reported that the Head of Bashkiria, Radiy Khabirov, congratulated the republic’s inhabitants on the Day of Russia.
