The mayor of Nevinnomyssk urged men to "sneak up" on their loved ones. He hopes to increase the city's birth rate.
Women should "stupidly give birth" Nevinnomysskto improve the demographic situation in the city and the country, the city's mayor believes Mikhail Minenkov.
In its telegram channel Mayor Nevinnomyssk complained that the country is in a demographic hole.
In 117 thousand NevinnomysskAccording to the mayor, only 700 children are born per year. Minenkov also suggested that there are tens of thousands of healthy, strong women in Nevinnomyssk capable of bearing more children. He proposed a solution to the current situation.
"Why shouldn't the men of Nevinnomyssk just sneak up on their beloved this evening, and exactly nine months from now, by the end of 2024, give birth to not 700 children, but 10? Those 10 families, couples, should do something this evening. Fall in love. The remaining 10 should do it next year. Perhaps this is the main development program for our city, our region, and Russia today—to just not sleep, eat, or drink this evening, but fall in love.", - said Minenkov.
Mikhail Minenkov himself has three children. He was elected mayor in 2016. He is a former military man who fought in the Chechen War and holds the rank of lieutenant colonel.
