Today is an outstanding date - the 370th anniversary. Of course, if there had been no war, we would have celebrated in a completely different way. But today we have to think about the safety of people, so we will not have such large-scale celebrations. In the morning we visited the Memorial of Glory, where we laid flowers at the foot of our defenders. In addition, we were at the raising of our flag. We have the largest flagpole - it is 102 meters high, and our Ukrainian flag is flying proudly
Terekhov noted that no other large-scale events are planned.

The threat always remains as long as there is a war. After the war, we will celebrate in a completely different way,” the mayor emphasized.
