Congratulations of the Chairman of the State Duma of the Russian Federation V. Volodin to Mufti Sheikh Ravil Gainuddin on the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War:

Dear Ravil Hazrat!

I congratulate you on the 80th anniversary of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War!

May 9 is a sacred holiday that epitomizes the feat of our multinational people. Heroism, courage and selflessness of soldiers, officers, home front workers. Those who sacrificed themselves, their lives, defending the Fatherland and providing the front with everything necessary.

Endless gratitude to the generation of winners who liberated the Motherland, saved the world from fascism, gave freedom to millions of people

We will always remember at what price the Victory was achieved. Honor the memory of the heroes. Let us do our best to preserve the historical truth.

Happy Victory Day! Health to you and all the best!

V. V. Volodin
