MOSCOW, July 19 (Itar-Tass) - Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev has adjusted regional programs aimed at re-settlement of Russian-speaking compatriots from abroad, the government’s press service said on Friday.
The Khabarovsk Territory and the Republic of Mary-El, as well as the Sakhalin, Amur, Kursk, Novgorod, Omsk, Penza and Pskov regions have put forth their re-settlement programs.
