For Pantin, they forbidden to plant passengers - but he did not come

Russian President Vladimir Putin at the last moment canceled his visit to Nizhny Tagil. This was reported by the portal of Yekaterinburg E1.

This information was confirmed by three different sources. The already arrived motorcade - five Aurus sedans, including two presidential limousines - are preparing to be sent from Yekaterinburg.

Today, December 23, Putin was expected at the Uralvagonzavod in Nizhny Tagil. The day before, bus drivers in Yekaterinburg were forbidden to produce passengers when approaching the presidential motorcade, the sky was closed over the Sverdlovsk region for three days, and the driving schools in Nizhny Tagil were ordered to cancel practical classes on the roads.

• Earlier, Putin canceled his traditional large press conference and a constitutionally mandatory message to the Federal Assembly. The annual "straight line", during which Putin answered the questions of Russians, probably also will not be: her dates continue to be transferred. The media claim that this is due to the situation at the front in Ukraine.
• At the same time, Putin remotely took part in the launch of the Indian reproduction center and congratulated Rosatom’s employees on the corporation’s anniversary, and also visited the headquarters of the troops participating in the war in Ukraine-probably in Rostov-on-Don, and flew to Belarus.
• Political technologists working in the Kremlin used Nizhny Tagil in agitation for Putin back in 2011, trying to contrast the workers of this city with Moscow participants in shares for honest elections in Bolotnaya Square. The head of the workshop, who became the “face” of this agitation, was even appointed Putin’s envoy to the Urals for some time.
