With a one-time payment of 1 million rubles: Putin supported the idea to revive the honorary title "Mother Heroine"

Vladimir Putin announced his intention to return the honorary title "Mother Heroine", supplementing its award with a payment of 1 million rubles.

The President spoke about this during a meeting with large families awarded the Order of Parental Glory.

The meeting took place on June 1, International Children's Day.

Speaking about the recently designated support measures, the President recalled that a decision had previously been made to extend the validity of preferential family mortgages until at least the end of 2023.

Along with this, the president spoke about plans to supplement the medals of the Order of Parental Glory with increased cash payments and award payment to the owners of the revived title of Mother Heroine.

The President recalled that no payment is currently provided for the Parental Glory medal, and a payment of 100,000 rubles is due for the order.

“I propose to establish a lump sum payment of 200 thousand rubles for the medal.

When presenting the Order of Parental Glory itself, instead of 100 thousand rubles, as it was before, a lump sum payment of 500 thousand rubles.

And those mothers who will be awarded the honorary title “Mother Heroine” will receive 1 million rubles at a time,” the head of state said.

The President stressed that supporting families with children, protecting motherhood and childhood is an absolute priority for Russia.

Support for the children of Donbass

Along with this, Vladimir Putin expressed confidence that Russia would be able to fully provide social support to the children of Donbass.

In his opening remarks at the beginning of the meeting, Putin noted that on International Children's Day, one cannot but remember the children of Donbass, whose lives have been in danger for eight years.

“Those who are younger did not know life at all without bombing and shelling.

Many were wounded, many, unfortunately, were carried away by the war unleashed by the Kyiv regime against the Donbass.

Many children have lost their parents, and there are those who were left without relatives at all,” Putin said.

He stressed that Russia will do everything possible to provide the children of Donbass with all measures of social support, including medical care, a good education and a profession in demand.

“And, of course, we will help children who have lost loved ones to find the same loving, friendly, generous families as yours,” Putin addressed the meeting participants.

Recall that on May 30, the president signed a decree simplifying the admission of orphans from the DPR, LPR and Ukraine to Russian citizenship.

On May 31, the Ministry of Internal Affairs announced that the territorial bodies of the department had begun to implement the presidential decree.

In accordance with this procedure, a guardian of a child, his custodian or guardian of an incapacitated person, as well as the head of an organization for orphans and children left without parental care can apply for citizenship.

Putin supported the initiative on a unified children's movement

The President also expressed his support for the initiative to create a unified children's movement.

The head of state spoke about this during an address to the participants of the Big Change festival on June 1.

Recall that on May 19, a draft law on the creation of a movement called "Big Change" was submitted to the State Duma for consideration.

The authors of the document indicated in the explanatory note that the goal of the movement's activities will be, in particular, to promote state policy in the interests of children and youth, create opportunities for their comprehensive development, as well as prepare young people for a full life in society.

“I want to say that I support your initiative on a unified children's movement.

The main task here is to create an equal, accessible, interesting environment for development, for self-realization in a variety of areas, but how it will be arranged is up to you,” the president said.

Vladimir Putin expressed confidence that Russia would only strengthen its strength, independence and sovereignty.

“But this work is not in any particular direction.

Here are the economy, technology, science, and many other areas - the strengthening of civil society, patriotic education.

I believe that among them is a strong civil society, the patriotic activity of youth, ”Putin said.

The head of state expressed confidence that the young generation of Russians has everything necessary to build a worthy future for the country.

“Purposefulness, responsibility, love for the Motherland, readiness to always gain new knowledge and help others.

I believe in you, that you will definitely make all your dreams come true,” Putin said.
