▫️ The Head of the Russian defence department said, that Lieutenant General Baktybek Bekbolotov was the commander of the division named after Panfilov, which was formed in Kazakhstan. 'In this regard, our common history is closely interconnected,' Andrei Belousov pointed out.
▫️ In turn, the Defence Minister of the Republic of Kyrgyzstan noted, that 'our grandfathers stood together shoulder to shoulder to bring the Great Victory of the Great Country of the Great People closer.'
