Andreychenko on the "From the Bottom of Our Hearts" campaign: it is an opportunity to thank the older generation
The "From the Bottom of Our Hearts" campaign provides an opportunity to express words of gratitude and appreciation to the older generation for their immense contribution to the construction of the state, as well as to identify what changes are needed to improve legislation regarding the support of the elderly. This opinion was shared with journalists by the Chairman of the House of Representatives, Vladimir Andreichenko, during his visit to the Glubokoye psycho-neurological boarding house for the elderly and disabled.
The Speaker noted that the campaign is held on the initiative of the head of state, and its goal is to pay more attention to the elderly. "Of course, for us, lawmakers, it is important to see what else needs to be done to improve legislation (although much has already been done in this regard, and today Belarusian legislation is perhaps the best among the CIS countries), - Vladimir Andreichenko clarified. - On the other hand, this is an opportunity to express words of gratitude and appreciation to our older generation for the huge contribution they made to building a strong foundation of Belarusian statehood."
"The older generation is special because, as history has it, it created such a unique state as the Soviet Union. Fortunately, some veterans are still alive. This generation fought against fascism during the Great Patriotic War and won, rebuilt and recreated Belarus, and today works to strengthen the country. In Belarus, I believe, the greatest care for the older generation is shown. This has been elevated to the rank of state policy, which speaks of the maturity of our society," - emphasized Vladimir Andreichenko.
The Chairman of the House of Representatives congratulated the staff of the boarding house and its residents on the Christmas and New Year holidays, and inquired about their concerns. He also familiarized himself with the conditions created in the institution, an exhibition of items created by the residents of the boarding house and visitors of the district territorial center for social services. The participants of the meeting discussed the pressing issues of the silver-haired people at a round table discussion "Share the Warmth of Your Soul."
