“It is necessary to distribute the weekend evenly so that people do not rest for weeks and do not understand what to do, and already do something from idleness, but really distribute it rationally so that there are three days off,” RIA Novosti quotes him as saying .

Ivanov stressed that three days of active recreation can give you time to relax.

At the same time, the deputy spoke out against the reduction of days off during the May holidays, since many Russian citizens are engaged in sowing and are busy in the country.

In September, Russian State Duma deputy Sultan Khamzaev announced that he had applied to the Ministry of Labor with a proposal to make September 1 a day off.
