On November 4 Russia and its people celebrate National Unity Day to commemorate how all the people of Russia are able to unite to save their Motherland.
On this special occasion Russian President Vladimir Putin has laid flowers at the monument to Minin and Pozharsky on Red Square on National Unity Day.
The ceremony is also attended by representatives of religious denominations, as well as public and youth organizations. Usually, after the solemn part of the ceremony, the head of state finds time to communicate with those present at the laying. Last year, for example, volunteers working in the new Russian regions were among those present.

The Day of National Unity has been celebrated in Russia since 2005. The holiday was established to commemorate the liberation of Moscow from Polish invaders in November 1612 by troops of the people's militia led by Kuzma Minin and Dmitry Pozharsky.
