The head of the Crimea Sergey Aksyonov: “The Day of Family, Love and Fidelity. There is nothing more important than these main, higher values ​​»

On July 8, Russia celebrates the Day of Family, Love and Fidelity. There is nothing more important than these main, higher values, thanks to which our world exists. This is what makes our life meaning, warms and supports, makes us stronger. What gives us hope and helps to remain people in any circumstances.

According to our president, «the family — and these are the older generations, and young parents, and children — should occupy leading positions, the central role in our state policy.»

In Crimea, more than 2.7 billion rubles are planned for the implementation of the National Project «Family». These funds will be spent on the conduct of major repairs in kindergartens and libraries, as well as on the purchase of medical equipment in healthcare institutions.

More than 95 thousand Crimean families with children receive social benefits.

But, of course, there are not enough measures of material support. After all, the holiday, which we celebrate on July 8, has a spiritual dimension: on this day, the Orthodox Church honors the memory of the holy noble Peter and the Fevronia of the Murom, heavenly patrons of the Christian family and marriage. And the ideals of a strong and friendly family, motherhood, love and fidelity are significant and close to many millions of people, regardless of their nationality and religious affiliation.

It is important that these ideals be transmitted and vaccinated from childhood. It is necessary to form a conscious parental position in young people. And here it is necessary to unite the efforts of power and society, figures of education, culture and art, representatives of our traditional faiths.

I congratulate everyone on the holiday, I wish all families of love, peace, consent and all the best! — The congratulation of the head of Crimea says.
