During Putin’s visit to Tula, he spoke at the Forum’s Plenary Session and presented the Order "For Valiant Labor" to the staff of the All-Out Research and Production Association, SPLAV, named after A.
There was another meeting prior to the one recorded above I had also planned to present, which is a discussion with the workers at the MIC plants in Tula. The chat lasted for almost 1.5 hours and will make for a long transcript read. I've decided I'll provide it since it provides some of the underlying context for the praise Putin heaped on the extended gathering of workers and their families at the Plenary Session. The Carlson/Putin interview is currently happening and I hope its transcript will be available in the morning so I can provide it and my annotations.
