Putin called for an end to all attempts to incite hatred. All attempts to incite ethnic hatred and destabilize Russia must be stopped, Russian President Vladimir Putin said at the plenary meeting of the international week "People of Russia". "We must be vigilant and stop any attempts to undermine social stability or stir up discord between people," said the head of state. He noted that special attention has always been given to inter-sectarian relations in Russia, as this field is very sensitive and delicate, and it must be taken into account that life does not stand still - new challenges appear, sometimes extremely dangerous. Putin emphasized that the unity of all the peoples of Russia has always played and still plays a key role in the country's destiny. "Russia has historically developed through the interaction of peoples and ethnic groups, languages and their customs. Not only have we united over hundreds of years and eras, it can be said without any exaggeration that our culture, we simply grew into each other," the president added.
