MOSCOW, August 3 The idea to transfer officials to domestic cars is absolutely correct, they should be purchased immediately after the current fleet becomes unusable, the head said Committee of the Federation Council on the regulations and organization of parliamentary activities Vyacheslav Timchenko.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday that all officials should switch to Russian cars. This, according to the head of state, will help «understand that we need to strive for the development of domestic brands, domestic cars, and other domestic products.»

He noted that the Federation Council «does not buy cars itself», but uses the provided ones. /ria.ru/20230803/avtovaz-1887989198.html» data-title='»AvtoVAZ» announced that it can provide the purchase of cars for officials'>
