Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin said that he once surprised President Vladimir Putin with his tough decision.
"You know, when I started working in the government in 2020, according to the results of the first year, eight regions did not fulfill the road construction plan. I came with a report to President Putin and proposed to remove those responsible for the disrupted site — deputy governors, regional ministers and customers," Khusnullin said in an interview with TASS.
According to him, the president asked:
"Why so tough?"
"I answered: it is impossible to receive budget money and not perform the planned amount of work on time. He added: it will be a good lesson for everyone," Khusnullin said.
He added that then the president instructed to work out the issue with his administration and the heads of the regions. As a result, the deputy chairman of the Government of the Russian Federation noted, eight officials were removed from office.
"Since then, there has not been a single region that has not fulfilled the annual road construction plan," Khusnullin said.
