Медведев говорит, что россиянам нужно хорошее вино, а не водка.

Президент РФ Дмитрий Медведев заявил о необходимости развития виноделия в России. По его мнению, это, в конечном счете, поможет "искоренению алкоголизма" в стране.

"Это одна из серьезных отраслей, которая должна развиваться и которая в конечном счете способствует искоренению алкоголизма, потому что в странах, где развивается эта отрасль, с этим проблем нет." - Медведев заявил об этом на встрече с губернатором Краснодарского края Александром Ткачевым. 

Медведев в частности сказал, что "Проблемы, как известно, от других напитков проистекают".

В США, население которого в два раза больше России, количество смертей от отравления алкоголем остается стабильным на уровне около 300 в год.

Luhansk the first Ukrainian region fully occupied by Russia

A Russia-appointed official in Ukraine’s occupied Luhansk region was quoted by AP on Monday saying that Moscow’s forces have overrun all of it, one of four regions Russia annexed from Ukraine in September 2022. If confirmed, it would make Luhansk the first Ukrainian region fully occupied by Russia after more than three years of war with international peace efforts led by the US failing to make progress on halting the fighting. Russian President Vladimir Putin has effectively rejected a ceasefire and hasn’t budged from his demands, which include Moscow’s control over the four illegally annexed regions.
