The message reads, in part:
“This championship has brought together experienced and young professionals from Russia and a number of other countries. During the intense competitions on the championship’s rich programme, you will have to demonstrate your individual skills, your ability to work in a team and solve unconventional tasks.
I would like to note that today, our country is consistently implementing ambitious plans to improve cities and towns, upgrade infrastructure and housing and utilities services, build new housing along with up-to-date social, industrial, power and transport facilities. The construction sector is one of the national economy’s powerhouses. Such significant results should certainly be credited to the people working in the sector, including builders, workers, engineers and designers.
I hope that your championship, which has become a tradition, will continue to improve the training of young skilled professionals, promote advanced competencies and technologies, and advance the qualitative development of the construction sector and industry-specific education, and of course, will raise the prestige of construction workers as a respected and creative profession.”
