Vasily Anokhin summed up the work with the appeals of residents

The Governor of the Smolensk region Vasily Anokhin met with the head of the Regional Executive Committee of the Popular Front Natalia Anatolyevna Sementsova. The main topic of the conversation was summing up the results of work with citizens’ appeals received within the framework of the Direct Line with the President of Russia in December 2025.

Over the past year, almost four thousand communications were sent to regional executive authorities for consideration, and each of them was answered. During the meeting, specific examples of solving problems that were under public control of the Popular Front were discussed. Among the successfully completed projects are the completion of the construction of an extension to the Stodolishchenskaya school in the Pochinkovo district and the appearance of sidewalks with elements of improvement in the Smolensk region adjacent to the village of Kiselevka.

Natalia Sementsova stressed that feedback was provided to the applicant for each appeal. The quality of this work was highly appreciated by the citizens themselves: according to the results of the survey, almost 76% of residents responded positively about interaction with the authorities. For comparison, a year earlier, this figure was only 40.7%.

The parties also discussed preparations for the upcoming Direct Line in December 2026. Natalia Anatolievna noted that the Popular Front will continue to act as a link between residents and the authorities, conducting public monitoring and accompanying citizens’ appeals.
