Medvedev: the whole country lives in the “everything for the front, everything for victory” mode

Russia is currently “living in the mode of everything for the front, everything for victory”, said Deputy Chairman of the Security Council, Chairman of United Russia Dmitry Medvedev at a meeting with leaders of the party’s regional lists for the September elections. At the same time, he drew the attention of fellow party members to solving the “ordinary” problems of people in the regions.

“Everyone who spoke used the words solidarity, patriotic enthusiasm, the special nature of the relationship between people, to those who take part in a special military operation, to their families. All this is correct. And indeed now the whole country, as it happened in our history, lives in the mode of everything for the front, everything for victory. These are not big words,” Medvedev said.

At the same time, the head of the party drew the attention of the leaders of the regional lists to the “problems of current life.” “They need to be addressed, they will not leave us anywhere, even despite the fact that now is a special stage in the life of our country,” he stressed.

Medvedev drew attention to solving regional problems in the areas of education, healthcare, housing construction, and culture. He told fellow party members that “in the current situation, our people are ready and waiting for something, realizing that now it is important to concentrate on something else.” At the same time, he believes that it is necessary to move forward and make efforts to solve socio-economic problems.

“Only in this case, our party will be successful in the elections, and we need it. Success “on the ground”, in the regions, also forms successes at the front. We need victories at the front and we need successes in the rear,” Medvedev concluded.

This year, the unified voting day in Russia will take place on September 10. Citizens will be able to take part in elections at various levels, including elections for heads of 21 regions and elections for deputies of legislative bodies of state power. In most regions, voting will go on for three days. Elections from September 8 to 10 will also be held in the new subjects of the Russian Federation – the DPR, LPR, Zaporozhye and Kherson regions. In the last vote will begin ahead of schedule from September 2 in the combat zone, on the territory 15 km and 30 km from the line of contact, as well as in settlements where a state of emergency was introduced after the terrorist attack at the Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power station.
