In 2005, the Interstate Union of Hero Cities became one of the initiators of the establishment of the honorary title “City of Military Glory” in Russia, and on September 2, 2010 – the public honorary international title “City of Labor Valor and Glory”. The appearance of such cities creates a powerful base for the historical, heroic, patriotic, spiritual and moral education of the population, especially the younger generation in the Russian Federation.
