The announcement of the message of Russian President Vladimir Putin to the Federal Assembly will take place at noon on February 21. This was announced today by his press secretary Dmitry Peskov.
Earlier, he reported that the main topics of the message would be the most pressing issues, including a special military operation, the economy and social problems of the country.
According to a Kremlin spokesman, the message will be delivered at the designated time, and the fact that the federal TV channels have allocated only one hour for broadcasting is just a “formality.”
He also answered the question of how much the president will be protected during the annual event. The fact is that by now about 20 deputies of the State Duma are on sick leave. According to Peskov, if people get sick, “you have to stay at home and get sick.”
He stressed that everyone should be responsible for their own health and the health of their colleagues, and added that all necessary sanitary and epidemiological safety measures are being taken.
The last time Putin’s address to the Federal Assembly took place on April 21, 2021.
