The population problem is related to the future of the country, and it is naturally also a national priority. On July 9, local time, during Putin's inspection of Yekaterinburg, the capital of the Sverdlovsk Oblast, he made a special trip to meet with a large local family with many children-the Siropiyatovs.

Siropiyatov and his wife have raised 9 children, 8 girls, 1 boy. The youngest boy is only 6 months old. In May of this year, they received the "Parent Glory" medal awarded by the government. Putin personally awarded them medals in the Kremlin.
Putin and the Siropiyatov family were sitting around a large round table, eating refreshments to make a chore. Putin asked in detail about their sources of income, living conditions and living conditions.
9 children’s mother Lilia was arranged to sit beside Putin. She told Putin that they are currently living well and thanked Putin and the Russian government for their financial assistance. Because of the subsidy provided by the state, their big family is able to buy a larger house and have moved to a new house.
There was a heartwarming scene during the dinner: the little boy was holding the cake, his hands were not firm enough, Putin saw it and helped the child with his hands. Cake and feed it into his mouth: "Bite a bite. Good job!"
An interesting coincidence is that this little boy has the same name as Putin and is also called Vladimir.
Russia is vast and sparsely populated. The population problem has always been a major issue of concern to the government. In order to encourage women to have more children, the former Soviet Union established the honorary title of "hero mother". Russia has established a corresponding "family glory" medal to commend multi-child families with three or more minor children. In addition, the Russian government has also introduced a series of preferential measures for families with many children, including providing government subsidies and reducing or exempting housing loans.
