Tatarstan President wishes event managers of federal Internet projects to provide transparency

On October 7 at a meeting at Tatarstan Cabinet of Ministers Tatarstan President Rustam Minnikhanov summarized results of participation of Tatarstan attractions in the project “Russia 10”.

According to the information given on the website “Russia 10”, Kol Sharif Mosque was on the 18th place. By the way, final voting results by each attraction were not presented by event managers. It was noted that during the contest there were many complaints about transparency of the voting procedure on the part of Internet users and regional heads. This fact can be proved by the scandal that broke concerning "The Heart of Chechnya" Mosque.

Thus, Rustam Minnikhanov noted that event managers discredited the idea of the contest “Russia 10”. “The absence of transparent voting procedure and control on the part of web community leads to discreditable practices and manipulation. We are sorry that good intentions on attracting attention of the global community to Russian sights were discredited by actions of the responsible people,” he said.

Rustam Minnikhanov thanked people who voted for Tatarstan sights.
