Alexander Shadrikov: "Patriotism and love of nature are inseparable! Strength is in unity!"
Minister of Ecology Alexander Shadrikov began his report today with a minute of silence at the final board of the department.
He recalled that 2025 in Russia was declared the year of the 80th anniversary of the Great Victory and the Year of Defender of the Fatherland. In every district there are those who are rightfully called defenders of the Fatherland, real heroes. Evgeny Karpenko, an inspector of the Volga-Kama Territorial Administration of the Ministry of Ecology, who volunteered for the front line in 2023, also became such a hero. He was awarded the Medal of the Ministry of Defense "For Military Valor." "In March 2024, Senior Lieutenant Karpenko died while performing a combat mission. Evgeny Vladimirovich was awarded the Order of Courage posthumously.
I ask you to honor the memory of all the fallen defenders of the Fatherland with a minute of silence!" Alexander Shadrikov honored the memory of the fallen defenders of the Fatherland with a minute of silence and noted that since the first days of the special military operation, the Ministry of Ecology staff has been actively supporting the soldiers on the front line.
The contribution of the trade union of the Ministry of Ecology was noted at the highest level. The chairman of the trade union was awarded the medal of the Russian Ministry of Defense "For Labor Valor".
