Deputy Prime Minister and Presidential Plenipotentiary Representative in the Far Eastern Federal District Yuri Trutnev held a meeting with a group of volunteers – state civil servants who returned home after fulfilling their duty to defend the Motherland.
The detachment was formed six months ago. It included 27 people: employees of the office of the Presidential Plenipotentiary Representative in the Far Eastern Federal District, the Ministry for the Development of the Russian Far East and nine regions of the Far Eastern Federal District (Buryatia – 2, Yakutia – 4, Transbaikalia – 3, Kamchatka – 2, Primorye – 2, Khabarovsk Krai – 1, Sakhalin Oblast – 3, Jewish Autonomous Oblast – 2, Chukotka – 3). The volunteers worked in two directions (Kursk and Donetsk), carried out reconnaissance of the forces and assets of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on various modifications of UAVs. All volunteers were awarded the medals of the Ministry of Defense “Participant of the Northern Military District”, and the members of the Kursk group (21 people) were additionally awarded the medal “Defender of the Kursk Region”.
“I want to thank you for the decision you made to go into the combat zone. I know that many of you carried out tasks that risked your lives, and did them well. I am sure that the memory of your work will remain for a long time. This will help you perceive life differently, perceive the work that we do together differently. Understand more how necessary it is. Maybe you will be a little tougher. This is also normal. All this will remain in the memory of Russia and in the memory of your families. In any case, today you can confidently say that you are not just ready to defend the Motherland, but you defended it. So thank you. I bow to you all. You know that we are preparing new groups. And it will be like this until we win. Until Russia wins. We will make every effort to bring this victory closer,” said Yuri Trutnev.
The Deputy Prime Minister reported that the Patriotic priority development area has been created to modernize and expand production facilities that manufacture military and dual-use products. “Such support is already being provided to 26 Far Eastern enterprises that manufacture FPV drones, aircraft-type UAVs, electronic warfare and reconnaissance equipment, sights, snow and swamp vehicles, hemostatic tourniquets, bulletproof vests and other products. Last year, together with the commanders of units participating in the special military operation, the tactical and technical characteristics of the manufactured products were determined. All products are tested for compliance with current conditions at the front and supplied to units of the Eastern Military District. In 2023–2024, 22.5 thousand products have already been sent to the special military operation zone, another 13 thousand products are being prepared for shipment, 27 thousand products will be manufactured and supplied by the end of the first quarter of 2025,” Yuri Trutnev specified.
The volunteers received letters of gratitude from the Deputy Prime Minister for their service to the Motherland, their courage and personal example of selfless fulfillment of military duty during the special military operation. And in turn, they thanked Yuri Trutnev, the office of the Plenipotentiary Representative of the President of Russia in the Far Eastern Federal District, the Ministry for the Development of the Russian Far East and all Far Eastern regions for their assistance and support, and also handed over to the Deputy Prime Minister a captured drone of the Ukrainian Armed Forces that they shot down and a Victory Banner signed by all members of the detachment.
“In April last year, Yuri Petrovich Trutnev set the task of forming a third detachment of Far Eastern civil servants to provide assistance in the SVO zone. It took about five months to select personnel and form the detachment. And this coincided with the enemy’s attack on the Kursk region. Therefore, we carried out our main task there. The detachment consisted of 27 federal employees. We left for the Kursk region in mid-August. And for six months we carried out combat missions in the SVO zone. I believe that the detachment has fully completed the tasks assigned to it, and now it has returned to its regular civilian jobs in full force. In my opinion, when the Motherland has problems, especially military ones, any man, regardless of his official position, is obliged to take up arms and stand up to defend the Fatherland. And an official has double responsibility. He is a civil servant. The state gave him a job, a salary, a position in society. “And his first duty is to come to the defense of the Motherland, if necessary,” noted Mikhail Kagan, a member of the detachment, commander of the aerial reconnaissance group, and deputy plenipotentiary representative of the President in the Far Eastern Federal District.
