‘‘The government of Dagestan is considering the possibility of conferring special status on the historical and cultural center of Derbent, which has recently celebrated its 2000th anniversary,’’ Deputy Prime Minister and the head of the Ministry of Economy of the Republic Rayudin Yusufov said.
He noted that great work was done during preparations for this celebration. According to the minister, the special status will allow the city to save the current tempo of development.
It is expected that the adoption of such a law will allow about 75 million rubles to be attracted for the development of Derbent, SKFO.ru reports.
