Moscow, May 23 /Xinhua/ — A decision has been made to create a security buffer zone along the border between Russia and Ukraine. The Russian Armed Forces are currently solving this problem, actively suppressing enemy firing points. This was announced on Thursday by Russian President Vladimir Putin at an operational meeting with members of the government.
As reported on the official Kremlin website, during the meeting the Russian president noted that “given the situation in the Kursk, Belgorod and Bryansk regions, it is necessary to launch work to restore and rebuild everything that was destroyed, to help people return to their native villages and settlements, where safety conditions allow it. In addition, it is necessary to restore all transport and other infrastructure, the stable operation of industrial and agricultural enterprises, and to support entrepreneurs and their teams.”
“In this regard, I instruct the Ministry of Economic Development of Russia, together with colleagues from the Presidential Administration, to prepare, as soon as possible, a program for the comprehensive restoration of the affected areas of the Kursk, Belgorod, and Bryansk regions. This program must be provided with the necessary financial and material resources, and additional equipment and specialists must be involved, including from other subjects of the Federation,” V. Putin noted.
