At a meeting in Kaliningrad on housing for the military

Participants:
“What service personnel and their dependants really need is not just ‘bare’ residential space or some standard housing, built to Soviet models, with the quality of decoration leaving much to be desired, but modern, comfortable facilities. Which is why I insist that only high-tech materials and equipment should be used in housing construction and that modern energy-efficiency and security standards be introduced.”
