MOSCOW, March 8. /TASS/. Russian President Vladimir Putin has congratulated the country’s women on International Women’s Day, pointing out that much in life depends on their creative energy, love, and utmost responsibility.
"Dear women, we know that so much in life depends on you, on your talents, creative energy, love, and utmost responsibility with which you undertake any job. Once again, we are in awe of your beauty, kindness and grace," the president noted.
According to him, "today, words of love, gratitude and respect are heard everywhere" as men express their appreciation to women for their contributions "both at home and in the workplace, where they often take on complex professional challenges."
"You truly do it all: taking care of children and scoring outstanding achievements in various fields, embodying both strength and grace, courage and tenderness, and winning us over again and again with your beauty and charm. You inspire men to strive for greatness, encouraging them to do better, to take bold steps and to be the true defenders of their families and homes, and our Motherland," the head of state said.
Putin wished success, health, well-being, and all the best to Russian women. "May you always find happiness alongside those you hold dear. Happy International Women’s Day!" he concluded.
