Congratulations from Dmitry Patrushev on World Water Day!
Dear colleagues, dear friends!
Happy World Water Day.
Intensive economic development, which leads to increased consumption of natural resources, requires us to pay ever greater attention to ensuring environmental well-being. Today, this is one of the priorities of the Russian Federation's state policy.
Our country is home to a fifth of the planet's freshwater reserves, including our unique gem, Lake Baikal. Their conservation and sustainable use are undoubtedly of strategic importance.
As part of the national project "Environmental Well-Being" and state programs of the Russian Federation, we are actively developing water management infrastructure, implementing innovative monitoring and management technologies, restoring and cleaning water bodies, and constructing modern wastewater treatment facilities. Particular attention is paid to protecting populated areas from floods and ensuring the availability of water resources for the needs of citizens and the economy.
Furthermore, Russia consistently advocates for the development of international partnerships in the water sector, the exchange of experience and technology, and the joint resolution of transboundary water use issues.
On this day, I want to thank all water management specialists, scientists, environmentalists, and public figures—the professionals who work daily to preserve our country's water resources.
I would like to emphasize the importance of the participation of concerned citizens in volunteer efforts to clean up the banks of debris.
Each of us makes a difference! This is how we create conditions for the sustainable development of aquatic ecosystems for the benefit of future generations. Happy holiday!
