More than 50 new recruits of the Ministry of Emergency Situations from the Vitebsk region took the oath
Over 50 rescuers from every region of Vitebsk Oblast solemnly took an oath of allegiance to the Motherland. Among them were three female representatives. As is tradition, the event took place on the square in front of the regional executive committee building.
– Today is a momentous day: another 53 young men and women are becoming defenders of the Fatherland. This is one of the most honorable professions – to guard, protect, and save people, – noted the Chairman of the Regional Executive Committee, Alexander Subbotin. – The oath will divide life into before and after. It is from today that the country and people begin to entrust their safety and lives to you.
