The tasks and valuable recommendations of the head of state create a reliable basis for the full and responsible implementation of the work. In 2020–2023, the president participated in nearly 400 events in the liberated territories, including 8 cities, 32 villages, and settlements, laid the foundations for 120 projects, and inaugurated 71 construction facilities for various purposes.
