Vladimir Putin congratulated current employees and veterans of the Federal Customs Service on their professional holiday, Customs Officer Day.
The message reads, in part:
“Over the past years, the Federal Customs Service has significantly strengthened its capacity and improved its performance. And today the Federal Customs Service of Russia is a modern and effective agency that protects the national interests of our state. The service plays a significant role in the sustainable replenishment of the federal budget, the creation of favourable conditions for business activity, the expansion of foreign trade relations, and the implementation of social programmes. The best representatives of the customs agencies are invariably distinguished by high professional qualities, fidelity to duty and personal integrity.
It is important that you give priority to improving the methods and forms of your work and make wide use of advanced, especially digital, technologies. Largely thanks to the well-coordinated work of customs officers throughout the country, goods for the needs of the Defence Ministry and the defence industry are promptly cleared, and new directions of trade flows are actively developing along the strategically important logistics corridors North-South and West-East. Other ambitious tasks required by the times are also being carried out.”
