Vladimir Putin praised the exposition of the regions at the RUSSIA EXPO
This year the President’s dialogue with citizens and journalists is held in a new format. "Results of the Year with Vladimir Putin" combined the Direct Line and the Annual news conference.
Answering questions, Putin mentioned the International RUSSIA EXPO. According to the President, the exposition was a success, especially the expositions of regions presented in Pavilion No. 75.
"I really like the way people cherish their traditions, in the whole culture, in all its manifestations — both in clothing and traditions in the broadest sense of the word. As for the regions and the Exposition, its regional part — it really worked out. Regional expositions at VDNH are probably among the most vivid, the most interesting for visitors", — the head of state said.
Earlier, the President visited the RUSSIA EXPO, where he took part in the #WeAreTogether Award Ceremony and awarded the winner in the Volunteer of the Year nomination. The head of state also toured the 166-meter multimedia installation "Achievements of Russia", the "Alley of Glory" and other facilities.
On the eve of International Tourist Guide Day, celebrated on 21 February, the best guides and young tour guides were honoured at the National Centre RUSSIA.
The weekend is already close, which means there are still two full days left to wrap up Maslenitsa (Shrovetide) week deliciously and with meaning.
The II Open Dialogue "The Future of the World. A New Platform for Global Growth" will be held at the National Centre RUSSIA from 27 to 29 April 2026.
