On behalf of Tatarstan State Council, Government, and personally I congratulate you on Sabantui holiday!
Maintaining the unique national traditions the "plough's feast" embodies the best qualities of Tatar people, such as diligence and will to win, neighbourliness and hospitality, love for native language and culture.
This day is marked by completion of spring field works, and we pay honour to our mother earth and tireless agricultural workers, knowing that the future harvest depends on their work. We glorify brave batyrs, and are amazed by courage of winners of horse races, enjoy listening to national songs and watching dances, pay tribute to outstanding culture and art figures.
