MOSCOW/TASS/. Russian President Vladimir Putin has noted the importance of securing the border in proximity to the fields of operations and ensuring fast movement of everything necessary to new regions in his greeting on the occasion of Border Guards Day.
"Securing the border in close proximity to the field of operations is a separate and very important task. At the same time, it is vitally important to ensure fast movement of both military and civil vehicles and cargoes, including food, humanitarian aid, and construction materials on their way to new constituent entities of the Russian Federation - the Donetsk and Lugansk people’s republics, and the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions," he said.
"I have great confidence in you, your professionalism and bravery, and know that you will do everything in your power to securely protect our Motherland’s borders from any threat," Putin emphasized.
