Kaliningrad represents Russia’s westernmost border and its proximity to European countries and extensive infrastructure will unquestionably help the region’s development, Mr Putin said at the celebrations of the city’s 750th anniversary.

Russia will always give Kaliningrad’s development the attention it requires and will make use of its financial, legal and administrative possibilities for this purpose.

The President congratulated the city’s residents on the anniversary and wished them happiness and prosperity.
