Vladimir Putin launched The New Year Tree of Wishes event at the RUSSIA EXPO
The head of state took down several cards with children's New Year wishes from the New Year Tree of Wishes set up at the International RUSSIA EXPO.
Among them was a dream of a girl from St. Petersburg to try herself as a news presenter. Another child wished to go to Baikal, and a third kid wished to visit the Hermitage.
The All-Russian campaign The New Year Tree of Wishes has been held since 2018. Its goal is to give joy and a feeling of New Year magic to children in difficult life situations. For five years, more than 40 thousand people who cared about the event have fulfilled more than 100 thousand children's wishes. Vladimir Putin joins the campaign every year.
Works by the People's Artist of the USSR and a member of the Russian Academy of Arts, Viktor Ivanov, are on display for everyone to see at the National Centre RUSSIA in the Ryazan Region.
The experts discussed the ways women exercised influence and the limits of their independence in different eras.
Fifty finalists from different regions of the country came together at the National Centre RUSSIA.
