“We responded to the appeal of the Komsomol members, they collected signatures and sent a petition to your name in accordance with the law on awarding the city the title of“ City of Labor Valor ”.
I ask you personally now, on behalf of all residents of the city, to support this and confer this title on this glorious city, ”he said.

So, of course, I understand what this is about.
