Vadim Krasnoselsky visited the engineering and sapper division during today's inspection. The soldiers' canteen is being renovated here. The building, built back in 1917, required major repairs. The heating, water supply and electricity supply systems have already been replaced. Redevelopment of industrial premises was partially carried out. It is planned to complete the repair and construction work in the shops of the catering unit by the end of the year. Kitchen equipment will be replaced. Mandatory re-equipment of renovated facilities is the principal position of the President. Vadim Krasnoselsky asked if the dining room was supposed to be renovated. According to the Minister of Defense Oleg Obruchkov, this is a matter of the near future.
The participants of the visiting meeting talked about progress in renovating the barracks, noting that not only their appearance is changing, but also the principle of forming the army infrastructure. The President visited one of the military units, where a new two-story building was built for conscripts.

It is planned that cadets will be able to receive education within the new walls from 2023.
