44 new employees of the Ministry of Emergency Situations took the oath in the Vitebsk region
Today, the ranks of rescuers in the Vitebsk region have been replenished. The oath-taking ceremony for 44 new employees took place in a solemn atmosphere. Young men and women in Vitebsk, Orsha, and Polotsk pledged allegiance to their Motherland. Among them is one female representative. She is an officer, an inspector of propaganda for the Rossony District Emergency Situations Department.
In Vitebsk, 14 recruits were accepted into the ranks of rescuers at the regional museum of Hero of the Soviet Union M.F. Shmyrev. "I swear allegiance to the Republic of Belarus and its people. I vow to sacredly observe the Constitution. To uphold the honor and dignity of employees of emergency bodies and divisions. To protect the lives and health of people. I pledge to be courageous, honest, and selfless," these words are very important for firefighter rescuers. Each of them understands the responsibility that rests on their shoulders. Ahead, the employees of the Ministry of Emergency Situations will face the difficult trials of working days, but they are ready to fight for the lives of citizens and their colleagues.
"For every man, the day of the oath is significant. As for any young man who considers himself a defender of the Fatherland. One who will take responsibility for the defense of our country in a difficult moment. The oath is a very exciting moment. I remember myself in the place of today's recruits when, in 1997, in Minsk, I took the same oath on the parade ground of the Higher Fire and Technical School of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Besides excitement, I felt pride that I was able to join the ranks of rescuers. I understood that I would be of service to my homeland. I want to wish the new rescuers to be courageous, fearless, to love their family, their Motherland," shared Sergey Markevich, Deputy Head of the Regional Department of the Ministry of Emergency Situations.
