The Mayor was the first to made a speech: “For three years, the Family Center “Kazan” has registered and made happy 3 thousand families. This is the new symbol of Kazan. I want to thank two authors: President R. Minnikhanov and D. Namdakov. One gave birth to the idea, and the second brought it to life. Kazan is one big family, and let our two symbols “He and She”, the ak-bars and the zilant, symbolize love, family, and the most important values on earth”.
