Indeed, human dignity is not an abstract, lofty concept for us. When we say human dignity, we mean, first of all, the peaceful and secure life of every citizen, ensuring his fundamental rights and freedoms.

By human dignity, we mean the creation of decent living conditions and modern infrastructure for every citizen, the creation of qualified medical services, quality education, social protection, a healthy ecological environment».
