Prime Minister Vladimir Putin sends greetings to participants and guests of a ceremony marking the 40th anniversary of young people's housing initiative

 
 
 

The message reads, in part:

"This anniversary is a great occasion to recall the fine traditions of the young people's housing initiative. This movement has not only provided housing for thousands of young families, but also played a significant role in solving major social problems. It was an ambitious and creative project, and we should pay tribute to the talented and energetic people that brought it to life.

I'm convinced that the experience gained will be useful in planning youth policies and will help us find a new approach to preschool education and family friendly recreational activities."
