Happy Russian Navy Day!

Dear sailors! Navy Veterans!

I sincerely congratulate you on the Day of the Russian Navy!

This holiday is a tribute of honor and glory to the sailors of all generations, who forged the might of the national navy. This is a holiday for strong, courageous, selfless people who sincerely love their country and are ready to defend its interests.

Today we honor those who guarded and continue to guard the maritime borders of our Fatherland.

Despite the remoteness from the seas, our capital has glorious naval traditions. This year, a large diesel-electric submarine of the Pacific Fleet was launched, named after the capital of the Republic of Bashkortostan. Ufa is also famous for its traditions of patronage over the ships of the Russian Navy. The crew of the guards corvette «Soobrazitelniy» of the 128th brigade of surface ships of the Baltic Fleet is like family to us - always under the attention of the Administration and the Council of Deputies. More than forty thousand people live in Ufa, who gave their debt to their Motherland, having served in the Russian Navy.

With all my heart, I wish all the sailors of our country good health, peace, prosperity, reliable comrades and successful service for the good of the Fatherland!

Happy holiday, comrades!

Head of Ufa City Administration of the Republic of Bashkortostan Ratmir Mavliev
