He noted that women in the Russian Federation achieve "amazing results", and they do it in a variety of professions.

And we will definitely continue to create all the conditions at the state level and, I am sure, in families so that it would be easier for women to combine motherhood with professional growth and successful self—realization," Putin said.

The head of state sent separate congratulations to the women performing tasks in the special military operation zone, in Donbas and Novorossiya, as well as in the border regions of the country. In these conditions, they show qualities such as courage, courage, dedication, and show their fortitude.
