"In all areas of my work I have devoted myself to the causes I have served. I promise that I will give all my strength to the position that was entrusted to me by the leadership of the country. I will do everything to make life in Primorye better every day," Miklushevsky said.
Miklushevsky told journalists that his first priories would be fighting corruption, creating a new administrative team, and paying constant attention to the requests of citizens.
Miklushevsky, a former deputy education minister and the rector of Far East Federal University, has been serving as interim governor since the previous head of the Primorye region Sergei Darkin submitted his resignation Feb. 28.
A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
