Vladimir Putin sent greetings to Governor of the Kirov Region Alexander Sokolov, and residents of Kirov and the Kirov Region on the city’s 650th anniversary.
The message reads, in part:
“Your city plays an important role in strengthening the industrial and defence potential of Russia, and in developing science, culture and education. You are rightly proud of the many generations of your fellow Kirovans whose achievements in labour and military service brought glory to the city. The natives of this region on the Vyatka River, known since the oldest times, continue to courageously fight defending Russia these days.
Today, Kirov is a big and beautiful modern city and a major centre of machine engineering and timber processing with solid transport, energy and social infrastructure. Of course, the local folk crafts, in particular, the famous Dymkovo toys, are known around the world“.
