Greetings on Lawyer’s Day

December 3, 2024

Vladimir Putin congratulated the Russian legal community on Lawyer’s Day.

The message reads, in part:

“This professional holiday unites people who have chosen a challenging but exceptionally important and in-demand profession: to protect the legitimate rights and interests of citizens, strengthen Russian statehood, and support businesses and all parties involved in the economy.

The best representatives of your profession have always been distinguished by their deep knowledge of the law, honesty, personal integrity, commitment to duty and the public good, and readiness to firmly defend the law and justice.

It is gratifying that you carefully preserve and cultivate the traditions of many generations of your predecessors while striving to responsibly tackle the tasks you face. You prioritise improving the regulatory framework and law enforcement practices, providing qualified legal assistance to individuals and organisations, and contributing to the legal culture in our society.”
