Minnikhanov visited the Brest Fortress and laid flowers.

      The Head of Tatarstan, Rustam Minnikhanov, began the working program of his visit to the Brest region of Belarus by visiting the memorial complex "Brest Fortress." This was reported by the head of the press service of the Head of Tatarstan, Lilia Galimova. During his visit to the Brest Fortress, Rustam Minnikhanov laid flowers at the monument. The Brest Fortress is a symbol of courage and tragedy from the first days of the Great Patriotic War. It became an embodiment of the resilience of Soviet soldiers: the garrison held its defense in complete encirclement for more than a month (from June 22 to the 20th of July 1941), even though the Nazis had already advanced hundreds of kilometers to the east. In May 1965, for the heroic defense of the Brest Fortress, it was awarded the title of "Hero Fortress." The memorial complex covers 70 hectares, including the ruins of the old fortress and other historical structures from the 19th century, as well as sculptural compositions. Several museums and the St. Nicholas Cathedral are also located here.
