We must not forget about the current development of the economy, the provision of social assistance to our residents - the tasks that our President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin set before us. Also, one of the basic areas for us is healthcare, - wrote Gladkov in his Telegram channel.

He also stressed that when reducing the revenues of the regional budget and, if necessary, direct a large amount of resources to restore housing and social infrastructure, additional assistance is required from the federal center.
