Ontrol over financial reporting will be carried out by the hereditary Don Cossack, lawyer Yuri Topilin. Thus, the board of the All-Russian Cossack society is fully formed.
Plans for the near future
The First Deputy Ataman of the All-Russian Cossack Society Igor Kazarezov shared with the participants in the Ataman Council information received at a meeting of the Presidential Council for Cossacks on the participation of Cossack societies in significant events. In 2020, among them - ensuring the organization of the passage of two ceremonial calculations of the Kuban and the Great Don Cossack troops in the anniversary Victory Parade on Red Square, participation in the 450th anniversary of the ministry of the Cossacks to the Russian state and in organizing the IV World Congress of Cossacks.
To achieve understanding in fulfilling common tasks, the heads of departments of the Board of the All-Russian Cossack Society talked about the principles of interaction with the Cossack troops, how the mechanism of work of the department for improving public service, international relations, patriotic education and the media relations department is built.
“In the near future I am going to visit all the Cossack troops, the supreme chieftain promised, in order to understand how the implementation of Federal Law No. 154“ On the Performance of Public Service ”is being implemented. Where it is really organized, and where nothing has been done for this. Law is law, and it requires the Russian Cossacks, as before, to serve their Fatherland. Therefore, it is so important that regional leaders and chieftains of all levels understand this. As soon as possible, in those troops where the territory allows, it is necessary to ensure the participation of Cossacks in the protection of the state border.
Youth is the future
In a special way, Nikolai Alexandrovich drew the attention of the chieftains of the troops to the patriotic education of the younger generation.
“This is what the President of the country relies on - how the system of continuous Cossack education is built, where in parallel with the study of general subjects are taught: history, culture, traditions and customs of the Russian Cossacks,” the military chieftain emphasized. - I want to see where the youth Cossack organization really works, and where this movement exists only on paper!
By the way, in August-September of this year, it is planned to hold the Constituent Congress of the “Union of Cossack Youth of Russia”, which will include youth groups from all registered Cossack troops.
- Soon the assistant chief of the All-Russian Cossack Society for Youth Policy will take up his duties. We hope that according to the election results, he will also lead the youth movement, ”Nikolai Doluda announced. - It is planned that the new organization will work closely with Rosmolodezh.
Taking into account the fact that so far the registered Cossack troops have different levels of development and resources, it is important for the chieftain who has united all the troops of the country to understand where the regional leaders organize interaction with the chieftains of Cossack societies and where not.
“The president made it clear that the Cossacks need Russia and it needs to be supported,” Nikolai Alexandrovich said, “but, unfortunately, not all regional leaders understand this. After a certain period of work of the All-Russian Cossack Society, I will prepare an analytical note addressed to the country's leadership, which will include, among other things, these data. You know, the need for our participation in the development of the draft Strategy of the state policy of the Russian Federation regarding the Russian Cossacks for the period until 2030, continued the military chieftain. - In this regard, I am waiting for your suggestions, gentlemen, chieftains!
Nikolai Doluda announced that a meeting of the organizing committee will be held on January 31 to organize the VI All-Russian Forum of Cossacks in Novocherkassk, which, according to preliminary data, will be held in the first half of September.
Ideological vector does not break
Speaking about the political situation in the country, Nikolai Alexandrovich spoke quite categorically with regard to the opposition media. He noted that in many ways the press forms the opinion of the country's inhabitants about the Russian Cossacks. But it is worth remembering that often we are faced with a false idea of reality. For some, the topic of the Cossacks has become a way of dishonest profit. Woe-journalists do not disdain to earn on hype and try to form a common, superficial opinion about Cossacks in the "yellow press" and thereby discredit, discredit the Cossacks as a force that upholds law and order in a country that fulfills state tasks and is the ideological vector of modern Russia .
The first Ataman Council was productive. At the end of the meeting, atamans watched as a good example videos on the organization of the Kuban Cossack army’s civil service work, on the Cossack education system, on the patriotic education of the younger generation on the example of the life of pupils of the Yeisk Cossack Cadet Corps.
- Today is a historic day - the first Council of Atamans of the All-Russian Cossack Society took place. This is an important day in the history of the Russian Cossacks, ”says Nikolai Doluda. - We have worked fruitfully, we have solved many problematic issues, and I am glad that we hear each other and understand, which means we will move in the same direction.
