MOSCOW, 5 Sep The LDPR is preparing to introduce a draft law on the status of a writer, party chairman Leonid Slutsky said.
«We intend to initiate the submission of a bill on the status of a writer to the State Duma of the Russian Federation. We have honored artists, but masters of the pen, who make no less contribution to our cultural life, are not recognized in any way. This situation needs to be corrected,» Slutsky said in during his video address at the All-Russian writers' conference at the Central House of Writers.
In addition, he invited writers to think about legislative ideas for the upcoming autumn session.
