Putin fulfills the dream of a schoolgirl from the Belgorod region as part of the "Christmas tree of wishes"

Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke by phone with 10-year-old Margarita Rutsinskaya from the town of Shebekino, Belgorod Region, a participant in the "Christmas Tree of Wishes" charity event. This was reported in the Kremlin's Telegram channel on December 24.

"I wish you all the best, congratulate you on the coming New Year!" - Putin addressed the schoolgirl.

The president fulfilled Margarita's dream: the schoolgirl made a training flight on a Sukhoi Superjet 100 flight simulator.

The girl together with her parents came to Moscow. Together they visited the National Center "Russia" and watched the ballet "The Nutcracker" at the Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko Musical Theater. In addition, a helicopter tour of the Moscow region was organized for Margarita.

The Russian leader took part in the action back on December 5. Then he removed from the New Year's tree a card with Margarita's wish. In addition, Putin promised to fulfill the wish of Arina, who dreams of visiting St. Petersburg, and Taisia, who wants to attend a rehearsal of the Moiseyev Folk Dance Ensemble.

The "Wishing Tree" charity event is a project of the Russian "Movement of the Firsts" with the support of Rosmolodezh, which has been taking place since 2018 and lasts from mid-November to the end of February. Thanks to the campaign, children aged 3-17 who find themselves in a difficult life situation get the opportunity to fulfill a cherished wish or receive a gift for the New Year. In 2023, the Wishing Tree started on November 15 and runs until February 28, 2024.
