The message reads, in part:

“Over the years, the Russian legal profession has strengthened its reputation as one of the key institutions of civil society. This is a direct result of your daily, dedicated efforts to protect the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of people and organisations, to ensure access to justice and to provide qualified legal assistance.

Of particular social importance is your work in offering free legal aid to citizens, including participants in the special military operation and their families.

I am confident that, by actively engaging in discussions on pressing legal issues and regulatory matters, members of the legal community will continue to make a meaningful contribution to the development of legislation and law enforcement practices in Russia.”
