Tricolored Flag over Ostankino TV Tower

26.08.2009
Nowadays in Russia, flagstaff of Ostankino TV Tower discloses symbol of the state flag. Flag Disclosure Decree was issued by the Minister of Communications and Mass Media of the Russian Federation, Igor Shchegolev. General Director of the Russian Television and Radio Broadcasting Network (“RTRN”), Aleksey Malinin, and a honorable guest, astronaut Viktor Gorbatko, gave their speech at solemn ceremony confined to such a notable event. Selection of the date for celebration of such important event was not-casual. Russia Day is one of the most “junior” public holiday and, nevertheless, just about the most noticeable. New development stage of our country had commenced just from adoption of the Declaration of the State Sovereignty of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (RSFSR) in 1990. This holiday symbolizes national unification and general responsibility for present and future of our Fatherland. The flag again fluttering over Ostankino TV Tower allows us to be rightly proud of achievements of our country and merits of our ancestors.

We congratulate all Russians with holiday and wish them happiness, wellbeing, and success in all undertakings.
