"I wished Vasily Vasilyevich a speedy recovery and expressed hope that he will celebrate the 80th anniversary of the Victory at home, surrounded by his family and friends. Veterans are our pride and living history. Caring for them and ensuring their safety is our common duty. It is important to form in young people a respectful attitude towards the older generation and the desire to help them in difficult times," the head of the region wrote on social networks.
