Deputy Prime Minister and Presidential Plenipotentiary Representative in the Far Eastern Federal District Yuri Trutnev congratulated residents of the Far Eastern Federal District and the Arctic zone of Russia, as well as those who study the Arctic, on Polar Explorer Day.
The congratulations read, in particular:
“For over 500 years, our country has been the world’s leading Arctic power. Russian explorers and pioneers – from Dmitry Gerasimov and Semyon Chelyuskin to Ivan Papanin and Artur Chilingarov – ensured the exploration and development of the Arctic.
We have built the largest polar cities and the most powerful nuclear icebreakers in the world, established navigation along the Northern Sea Route, and learned to extract minerals necessary for the global economy in the extreme conditions of the Far North.
Today, this work continues. Complex mining projects are being implemented in the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation, high-tech enterprises and liquefied natural gas plants are being built, modern scientific stations and floating nuclear power plants are being created.
All this became possible thanks to you, your daily responsible and hard work, love for Russia and your chosen profession.
On this festive day, I would like to thank you once again for this and wish you good health, endless enthusiasm, energy and new victories for the benefit of our country!”
