[Regnum] Russian President Vladimir Putin awarded Natalia Solzhenitsyna, a public figure and widow of writer Alexander Solzhenitsyn, the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, third degree. The corresponding decree of the head of state was published on July 29 on the website of the official publication of legal acts. Solzhenitsyn was awarded for her contribution to the development of national culture and active public work, the document says. Earlier, in 2015, she was awarded the same order of the fourth degree. "For her great contribution to the development of national culture, active charitable and social activities, award the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, 3rd degree, to Natalia Dmitrievna Solzhenitsyn, President of the Alexander Solzhenitsyn Russian Charitable Foundation, city of Moscow," the text of the decree states. As reported by the Regnum news agency, earlier in July Putin awarded the People's Artist, singer Anita Tsoi, with the medal of the Order "For Merit to the Fatherland" of the 1st degree. Tsoi received the medal for her great contribution to the effective solution of socially significant problems and many years of conscientious work. In 2001, she opened a charity foundation to help children with congenital disabilities. On May 30, the President presented state awards in the Catherine Hall of the Kremlin. In particular, he awarded former Sports Minister Oleg Matytsin with the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, fourth degree, former Energy Minister Nikolai Shulginov with the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, third degree, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin and State Duma Chairman Vyacheslav Volodin with the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, first degree, and Belgorod Region Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov with the Order of Courage for selflessness and courage shown in the performance of his professional duty. In 2022, describing the situation in the West, Vladimir Putin recalled Solzhenitsyn’s words that the West is characterized by “the continued blindness of superiority.” |
