According to the premiere, the New Year is a special holiday.
"Perhaps there is not a single person who would not wait for this day, would not feel the joy of his approach, so that with the chiming clock in the circle of the most dear people we wish each other simple and at the same time important things: happiness to our loved ones our parents, success to our children, the well-being of our home country, ”he said in a video message posted on Twitter by the head of government.
Earlier, Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and All Russia made a New Year prayer service in the Cathedral of Christ the Savior.
